That Mantle 3.5...gorgeous card. Well timed, after the exceptional 2.5 in Heritage commanded so much.

It's nice to patronize an auction house run by actual collectors, who share a passion for what we all collect. It comes through in everything these guys do. When it's a really cool item, Al and Jeff's excitement jumps off the page. And it's genuine excitement. . . .not manufactured salesman's b.s.

Agreed. The centering is virtually perfect. I guess I can't count on it to slip through the cracks.

I'll just pile on in saying what a great auction. Even though not everything is in my wheelhouse, I love auctions where I couldn't just find a duplicate of every lot on eBay.
I can honestly say I'm not sure if I'm relieved or upset that my bonus check doesn't come until after this auction closes.

Default Mantle rookie
That Mantle looks great, and with the way Mantle rookies sales have been trending it should do very well - $35-40k+ potentially.

One thing I noticed about LOTG is that the level of detail in the listing points to a degree of research that is beyond (many) other auction houses.

I've seen the same item get listed many times at the auction house and at times it is clear that they basically cut and pasted the information.

For the items I consigned, it is very clear that a lot of time went into research including a decent amount I had not been able to find in my own research.

interesting. i actually was thinking this morning that with the 23% buyers premium, the 3.5 mantle (i assume you mean the 1952 topps mantle. i didn't see a mantle rookie in the auction) is nearing it's ceiling and that the lower-grade one is more appealing (for the price) and a better buy.

edited to add that neither card is mine!
