Goldin's Vintage Auction Preview is open and wow

That Recchius was a little ridiculous, no? Seemed very contrived that that one-off “card” , whose date is unproven, can be considered a rookie card by “Joe T”. It’s not part of a set or anything. At best it’s like a photo or a cabinet. Cannot believe it had a higher reserve than that price. I dont know if it gets close to that price again.

The auction was good, i picked up two items, another DS Greenburg error card, nice looking and reasonable price, and the Speaker 1912 Boston American series. I have started to add some Speaker items to my collection, a favorite of mine.

There’s enough people with money in the hobby who don’t know what they’re doing. And even they knew enough not to hit that reserve on the Reccius.

Great auction, but prices are softening on certain cards/ players.

I wished the E107 set was sold off as individual cards, but oh well.

I really liked the Ruth type 1 rookie photo and the Ruth/Gehrig signed goudeys.

We spent a lot of time discussing how to best sell a set like this. Ultimately, I decided it was best --for me, as consignor (bc frankly that's all I cared about here-- to sell as a complete set. I think it was the right decision.
