Gary, How many different colors are there that you know of?

I think there's around 10 with possibly 1-2 more. Here's my other W517 run that's further along. Here, I think I'm still missing purple, orange, and bright green. I know some people might say that bright green and regular green (or bright brown and regular brown) are really the same colors but they may look different due to fading after exposure to sunlight, etc. That is definitely possible, and I'm not discounting that, so I might have some duplicate colors here. However, to me, they looked different enough that I put them on here.

The extremely rare non-Pittsburgh, non-Louisville 1895 N300 Mayo Cut Plug "St. Paul" Glasscock. ALL-tered.

As per usual with these, the one and only in existence.....

Greg, I cost you some money at the end on that. I also fell asleep and didn’t bid more. Glad it went to a good home.

Rhett, sorry, I went to bed as well, not winning, which was fine, woke up and saw still alive at 1:45, so topped....

I had one of these a few years ago, an SGC 8, and always loved the "one and only" angle, but sold it in my tragic sell-off--for far less than I thought these unique items worth. Still wonder why still "affordable" but surprised and happy to get one back, and under-graded and well-centered no less....

Not exactly a pickup, but got my Shoeless (not to mention Chapman and Lajoie) back from re-holdering.

Also got my first Duke and only 52 Topps in. I can't get over the centering on this one, perfect.
