T206 Charles Bray Collection

[Bobbycee]

I don't get the excitement over Charles Bray cards. Who was he? His cards are very ordinary & usually in average condition and therefore seemingly nothing to chase after.

Very early dealer and auctioneer and friend of Jefferson Burdick.

These pictures are great thanks for sharing. I think it's a pretty interesting collection myself. While they aren't in the most impressive condition, the provenance and his historical impact on the hobby is very cool.

I am humbled knowing that something went from his collection into mine. Brings you closer to the history of card collecting.
