FURTHER UPDATED -- T206 524-Card Set Complete & On PSA Registry

[Powell]

What Ryan says is 100% accurate and I hope and expect he will receive the same joy I received from the Wagner and Doyle. I had no intention of selling when Ryan reached out, but a deal was made at the highest level of professionalism on both sides. Today, the Wall of Cards comes down. Heritage is picking up 522 — #3 on the Registry with many 1 of 1 specimens this morning. It was a 16 year labor of love. However, a new wall of 522 is going right back up with a mid-grade set. I’m still very much in the hobby. I’m more focused on type collecting and building nice collections of Ruth and Cobb, especially Cobb whom I believe got a bum rap from a biographer who betrayed him. My favorite Cobb is the Plow’s Candy E300 which is about as rare as the Doyle. I’ve enjoyed the Board and appreciate all.

Wait, Ryan, people vouched for you?



I was happy to be the first person Ryan told about this transaction; he knew I'd be up that late at night! He did not have to go into such great detail here about the inner workings of the deal, but he graciously did (and Powell confirmed). Hopefully people will respect their privacy, and not pry on pricing. Very cool (monumental) transaction, going to the perfect home. Congrats, guys.

Certainly enjoyed reading through this. I think seeing a deal of this magnitude, will the be closest I'll ever get to actually owning a Wagner. Unless they triple my salary, every year for the next handful of years! More and more I'm enthralled by this community.
