Anyone see this on ebay yet? Black Backed F & J Smiths?

I can tell you from seeing them in person they are definately black backed. They are in great shape from a appearance standpoint. I just wish I had the $$$ he is looking to get for them.

Doesn't look like any offers on them yet, so curious what will happen if they don't sell? Maybe my initial shot to grab them will be more in line!

Yes, I also saw these. Something just doesn’t feel right to me about them. I personally don’t put a lot in the fact that PSA graded it Authentic. I thought I remember another seller selling these individually a few months back. I think he was from England. So I assume “buggeye” bought them from him, if my memory is correct.

Dave,
BTW, what sort of condition is your Blue Back Vardon in? Either way, nice pickup.
Thanks,
Jason

I agree with Dave - I think some of these cards were offered on ebay - from the uk not too long ago (last 3 months) - I remember seeing them also.

Talking of unusual items - not too long ago I picked up a presentation set of 3 jovial golfers - two lightly mounted mint sets from "Mardon Hall & Son" the Bristol printers. - They are blank on one side - one side is printed with the front and the other printed with the back. They make a great display - and I have always liked this set. - especially as I have played a lot of the holes.

The Blue back Vardon I have is pretty decent, I have not sent it in yet as I am waiting until I have enough stuff to justify sending it in to PSA. I got it from another auction house in England, I found radomly a few months ago.

Looks like the Black backed cards sold for $3500...wonder who bought them? not me. I made him an offer but that is more than I could offer right now....
