Is this correct?

Tony,

Yikes! According to VCP it's one in the same. How do you write-off $160,000???

Lovely Day...


Correction.... the one in Goodwin sold for $272,980.00 with BP.... Double Yikes!!!

Something doesn't look right with this picture!

Did a board member end up getting lot number 297?

i was willing to go up to 15K.. and that was already more then I could afford... but 20K after the premium was too rich for my blood..

if the winner is a board member I would be interested in several pieces.

This card sort of jumped out at me when I first browsed the auction online, but I figured that it would sell for more than I wanted to pay. When I woke up on the couch at 3:30 a.m. Sunday and saw what it was at, I decided to enter one bid and one bid only. Luckily it was the high bid, and just as fortunately, Jeff P. decided not to pull the trigger again. Even though it's not a Lajoe, I'm pretty thrilled to add a card to my collection that I never thought I would.

Tbob, I won the Speaker Blomes back you mentioned, along with the Wagner Blomes back, the 4 Clement bros. major leaguers, lot 173 mixed pre-war, and lot 326 t205s with 3 Mattys and 22 caramel cards. Underbidder on a few including the e97 set. Now have to hijack liquor truck to pay for this.

Great Joss, had I known it was you I would have bid.

Jerry, congrats! Glad to see Speaker and Wagner going to a good home. I was really amazed at the final hammer prices. Nice pickups on the other cards also. You are back in to the card world bigtime!
