I have no insight Seth but wanted to say those are great pieces. I hope you get your answers and can checklist all known cabinets. Fantastic pickups.

I was pretty surprised at the lack of early bidding on those cabinets. Those are pretty nice.

Thanks, guys. Jason, I had a feeling these would appeal to you. Did you see the Richmond Colts postcard in the auction? Amazing piece, a bit pricey in the end!

Those are great items in beautiful condition. Good luck in your search for more info.

I was watching the Richmond postcard. Outside of the two t206 players and southern league appeal was there anything else special about the postcard?

Complete disclosure - I was the consignor and am trying to learn more about it.

It has T209-II crossover appeal as well as many players will be in that set. Someone who knows T210 Series 2 better than I do may also be able to attest to some T210 crossover. Congrats on the sale, it was a beautiful piece!

Thank you Seth. I appreciate it. I am happy I didn’t accept the 250 offer for it a few months back.

Those cards look like they belong in a museum.

They certainly do appeal to me, as did the Richmond Colts postcard. It did sell for a hefty sum. I suspect thats in part to having a decent little period autograph from Guy Titman. Simple signed "Guy" I suspect its one of the only Richmond period players signature on a card/pc/cabinet. Great pickup and worth the price to me if I had the means currently.

Some more information regarding the cabinets. 10 of the cabinets depicted the player in portrait and identical laced jersey uniforms. 2 others were in button jerseys. It was felt the group of 10 and group of 2 were from different seasons as address for studio was different for the two groups.

This is why this message board is so fantastic. Thanks for both your posts!
