I am surprised at the mainstream attention. There was even an article in The NY Times about it

As an aside I was looking for the Go Fund Me Page for Leon so he can purchase it and put it in the Net54 Museum but I did not see it

From what I heard, the owner sold a approx 10% interest to the Collectible group and had an option to buy back. It was a $6mm valuation. It happened before Collectible went down.

I'm thinking Steve Cohen will want to buy it & bring it to display in New York.

That's pretty typical. Most of the action (once everyone gets in their initial bids) arrives in the final 24-48 hours. Particularly when you're talking about this price point.

5.75 million as of 1100 EST on Sunday.

I am surprised that there wasn’t movement yesterday. Feeling more and more confident that this card will go under the Rosen mantle.

I imagine that everyone who will be trying to win it has their first bid in already.
