For anyone else who missed that auction, the buyer got an unbelievable deal.

Right now, the Standard Catalog lists the actual price that each card sold for. I wonder if the McKechnie will be reported the same way.

SGC.... what kind of proof do they have that shows these are factory proofs made by Gum Inc.???

On the graded "proofs" are they "handcolored" after the original B&W printing process?

If so why couldnt anyone do that now to a common 1940 B&W card and say its one of these so called "proofs"?

To me they all look handcolored (solid watercolor paint/ink), even the '39

under McKechnies hat is even red in the dark area

I don't think they were handcolored. I believe the coloring was part of the printing process.
