Even rare-back T206 cards don't strike your fancy, Peter?

isn't dan going to buy this lot so he has all of the balt newses...except the ruths.

Fortunately for me I collect D cards, not M cards. I can't think of a single bakery type with $10k commons.

I am completely indifferent to T206 backs. I know that is heresy on this Board.

So we have 13 people and my math adds up to $153k for 13 cards (assuming the 15k is the max.

I voted that I would be interested in possibly paying $10K for a type card if it was a case where they were all in an auction, I could put in a low opening bid on a few, and then as the auction proceeded decide which one I wanted to focus on, but have the option to switch to another one, or even totally drop out and use the money towards other cards entirely. Sort of imagining what would have happened if the cards were being offered individually in REA (like what I am doing now with other lots in REA).

If the vote was whether I wanted to join a buying group to buy 13 cards, then I change my vote to no (although it doesn't look like the poll allows you to change a vote).

Partly philosophical, partly thoughts on auction method case study and partly a buying opportunity coordination if 30 people responded yes. All responses interesting to me what other collectors much smarter and accomplished than me think.

Guy Zinn is no longer considered Jewish

Alan, looks like he was not the first.

Zinn joins former players such as Buddy Myer, Lou Boudreau, Jacob Atz, Greg Goossen and Dave Newhan, who previously had often been listed as Jewish. However, they do not fit the museum’s definition of Jewish ballplayers.
