E77 Bat Nelson and Ad Wolgast - scarcity

[wicker56]

I was surprised at how much this Attell went for a couple days ago on Ebay. It’s really not that rare compared to other cards in the set. Prices are still pretty strong.

E80 also tough. Cool card.

$362.89 on the E80 is a strong price but I think it reflects a lack of inventory on the tougher prewar and 19th century issues. it almost feels to me like everyone is holding their breath to see if boxing experiences a gold rush like some of the other sports, so no one is selling the good stuff. Run searches on the tougher N, E and T sets on eBay; virtually nothing there. On the rare issues, some haven't been offered in more than a year.

I don't think it's any scarcer than the other E77's; the whole issue is fairly tough. I only have 11 of them after quite some years keeping an eye on the low grade end. I dipped out on this card well below your winning bid.

Last couple years have been very, very light on the tougher boxing sets appearing for sale.

I had this SGC 10 E80 Monte and Abe Attell that I had on eBay back in November for $199 or Best Offer, got no real eBay offers and sold offline for $140. Probably not too far off from the one which sold for $362, based on the condition.

I see some boxing stuff doing really well, and others not so much. Jack Johnson will continue to be the gold standard for vintage, but others seem to be performing well recently as well.

These came in a deal I did several years ago and have sat in a box on the shelf until I saw this post.

Regarding the e77 nelson/wolgast - because I now own and want it to be scarcer, wondering if that is actually the case. Or, is it just as scarce as the others in the set. My limited research suggests it may be tougher. I don't have good access to pops or historical sales beyond web searching.

Interested in the Gotch, if you are planning on selling.
