Maybe Dugrahm and Hover will be the next discoveries. Some of these Maroons have proven to be far more difficult than others.

Nice discovery and great info, y'all. It certainly makes sense that all would be possible with multiple poses from the original checklist.

I think it's interesting that a card shop or card show dealer gave him 4K and some stamps. If I walked into a show with this Crogan, I would expect them to offer me $75. A decent place to view an OJ price guide is Bob Lemke's 2006 SCD guide. It will give you a place to start. Rob

Really you use a guide that is 13 years old now?

I am unaware of any guide that is worth a poop

Hey...I paid three poops and a tinkle for mine.


My apologies for not having enough Old Judge knowledge to legitimately contribute to this great thread.

But, thanks Jay for providing a set-up for my attempt at humor.

Excellent post and discovery! Exciting to see something so old, can still be new. Happy for the OJ collectors out there. Cheers!

Yes. No wonder I haven't won many recently.

Seriously though, I was not commenting on your site and am not familiar with it. I was responding to the member's question in post #18.

Lemke had commons listed as 600 275 150, which is about what I would pay today. You can throw out the price guides on uncommon OJ's. You just have to bid until the other guy stops.

Thanks for the feedback. Is there a way to search the VCP as price guide for the set, as opposed to searching each player individually? Thanks.

Price guides for OJs will never give a true valuation. There are so many collectors paying crazy amounts for these little beauties. I myself work on the Iowa players, Des Moines, Sioux City and fingers crossed the Burlington Nyce. Take Des Moines, there are 23 players with 82 poses. If I have three of the four Cody poses and the fourth comes up for sale, I have to really pony up if I want to own it. I know of at least two other collectors looking for the same thing as myself and if I'm missing it, bets are their missing it as well.

Just my two cents but prices are all over on OJs.
