As is my want, I was underbidder on several lots...most notably the 1913 Oakland Oaks set. I did end up paying pretty well on the lot of 4 notebook covers with Wagner/Cobb/Mathewson/Griffith. Anyone have any idea if these could get a numeric grade from SGC...or are they destined to be "Authentic" examples?

Tough break on the Oaks Tom. That was my favorite lot in the entire auction. Just couldn't pull the trigger now that I'm retired.

Tom:

Very nice notebook covers. I believe that they would be "Authentic" with SGC.

I really wanted the r300 set (actually just one card). However, 11k was slightly beyond my budget (about 50 percent too far). I would appreciate hearing from the winner as I and several others here are interested in some of the cards.

I only won one lot, and it was only a PSA 1, and it wasn't even Pre-War.
Ahhh, poor Me

Craig, great pickup. I'm sorry, but I was one of the final few bidders against you. Went too high for me. Card is priced like a 2.

There is a current auction at Goodwin for the Wagner notebook cover. It too is graded authentic. However, the auction description claims its only authentic because the borders were trimmed into the red, leaving no white. Not sure if this is correct, but if it is, then all of your copies would still be SGC eligible for numerical grades.
