Nice ^^^
I had planned to win the Sacco River 1.5 Pied350.....but i must of under-estimated
myself. Theres still demand!!!!
@2800+18%BP....3304 had to be peak market.
It was surely a nice card too.

Thanks guys. My advice is to get the Cobb you want when you can get it. But don’t buy any old Cobb you can afford.

Exactly, unless you plan on it being a hole filler, which I have done before. It's not really the best strategy if you think another nice one will come up very soon. But the best specimens of our cards will keep and gain value more than nominally nice ones, in my opinion. And I predict eye appeal over grade will continue it's momentum for pre-war. I don't know about the rest so much.

You guys are definitely right. I should be in position to offer on a nice one soon. I’ll be holding off to look likely in person at Strongsville Ohio Vintage show in April.

Thank you Leon. I’ll be selective but I’m hoping to come away with a Cobb, if not a nice “Big Train” T206 would be a wonderful consolation prize.

The Wajo portrait is a great card when in nice shap. Good luck in the hunt....which is a lot of fun for many of us.
