This was the Barry Halper auction, and both cards were ungraded at the time. When it was resold in 2006 it had been graded, and Heritage correctly called it a missing color scrap.

Very nice! Thx for sharing! Are you also the winner of that Plank missing color scrap from Goldin?

No, I have a friend who was the underbidder, but I don't know who won that one.

I have noticed strong prices for Plank t206’s also recently. Underrated card. Great card with upside.

A PR1 Plank just sold last night on Goldin auctions for a little over 50k.

Here is the Plank I picked up on EBay a few months ago for a reasonable price. It really does seem that prices are starting to take off on these.

Welcome to the Plank Magie Club! You know Wagner is next, right?

A Wagner would be nice! Maybe someday
