Anyone following Mile High and Sterling tonight?

I won one single lot. While they were a lot of deals that seemed to be overlooked due to the over abundance of 65's all through the auction, the super deals disappeared throughout the night. There were still good deals. But not like there was.

I won the '49 Paige. After reading a biography on Satch while on vacation, I'm simply enamored.

I got one of the Dockman Frank Chance cards. I needed something goofy.

I was lucky to get this baby.

And here I was up worrying about getting these. You must of been on pins and needles waiting for the auction to close. I have to say, though, I am glad to have got these at the final hammer price. I think $300 for the Lobert was a steal, and Howe, well how can you go wrong with that beauty? I teased my wife constantly when she was pregnant that I was going to name our son Gordie while she was in recovery. Needless to say, I didn't, as I am still alive to recount that story.

I've heard of guys spending their pension and/or 401(k) money on a boat, but never on a baseball card. Nice pick-up. Congrats! If I bought that card, I'd have to live on ramen noodles for the rest of my life.

Whoa, great Plank.

Would be worth it Derek!

NK. And the generic kind too.

Nice Plank Ryan.

After that, I'm sheepishly showing my win that hung on. Not pre-war baseball, but a winning anyhow.

Over the years I've only won a couple of items from MH, but I will tell you that my bid for the Clancy exceeded the final price. Given the shilling that we rightfully complain about, I want to call out honesty and integrity.

[Rhotchkiss]

Ed, that is a great looking T216. Total steal at $300.

Ha. Yes, after reading the eloquent description of the centering, I was hooked!
