Complete T208 Set to be sold by Legendary in November

[Jacklitsch]

I don't know about the 18 but the provenance on the 15 in the Spring REA is impeccable.

And something I learned from the good Dr. I'm probably paraphrising this badly.

If nothing gets traded at a lower "price guide" price point and is tough; maybe the price in the guide is too low and only higher prices. With these cards; no one ever sold them until the REA and then the Legendary sale and thus when the higher prices were realized than many people wanted to take advantage (although maybe only a couple actually OWN these cards)

...and does the inexplicable difficuty of the Dygert Williams Baking card correspond in Fireside ?? are the greenies tougher in T208 as in D359 ?

...and as for conspiracy theorems...was it this set that needed Dygert to complete...and/or set a market benchmark? seeing that the same card only brought 3,500 in 2004, albeit unslabbed and naked.

I will take a wild stab and say all of the Firesides are equally rare. I think the Dygert was just the first one out in a long time. I don't remember one in the last several years in REA but I might be forgetting one....It will be interesting to see how the set and the large group do...

Thanks Dave...It was 5 yrs ago and I just didn't remember. I know who won it though. I just forgot where he got it. Mine came from a Lipset auction about 8-9 yrs ago (I think)....regards

and yes it will be interesting to see $$$ that shows for the set.
is it being sold as a set? or indies?

it will also be very interesting to see which ones are missing from REA's near set.

I know the source of the fifteen going to REA. They are from a very old (and incredible) collection.

so I guess the three MIA will be Plank, Lord and Morgan.
