will still have internet and phone proxy bids plus live floor phone bidding. I think we'll see strong prices.

Oh, and dibs on the Falk Giants postcard.

Is it online? I don't see anything on the Legendary website.

I couldn't find the auction online either, and I normally receive the print catalogue here in Vancouver the day after the auction ends.

will be up Monday or Tuesday (I forget which).

Each year I have gone to the live auction and had absolutely no aspirations of bidding. Almost every year I end up winning something......(you know you are an addict when that happens)

I don't need complete sets of any of the cards listed. I might buy one card, but no chance in this auction.

Good...I was hoping it was not the same one.

Any thoughts on what it will go for?

If I recall, the catalog says $4,000-$5,000 estimate, but we know how close those estimates are.

If I had to guess I would say it will go for more than the high estimate.

Would someone kindly post some scans of this catalog?

Thought $8400 was a great price for the Falk Giants postcard. Speaking of which, another surfaced at the show and some very lucky person got it for only $1500!

I would guess closer to 15k, but that is just a guess.

Its not mine. Very cool to see another one out there.

It looks very nice. I hope someone here grabs it.

Joe- I've been asked if it is yours but I think this one is different. Doesn't the photo on yours go all the way to the bottom of the card? The one in the Legendary Auction has some blank space beneath the image. Also, I don't recall yours having that advertising on the back.

Barry -

The photo on mine does not go all the way to the bottom of the card. It is just like the one in Legendary.

People weren't allowed to write a message on the back of the postcard at the time (it was for an address only) - - so I would guess that space was intended for a message to be written.

The postcard I have is postally used and has writing on the front.

I am pretty sure the back of mine is the same as the one in Legendary..... but I don't have a back scan handy (can't seem to find it on my computer). I plan on going to the bank soon, so I will check it out then.
