strange thing about the letter above is it says "1993" the find was discovered before 1993...

some images...


here is an image I saved of that vintage wear Cobb (standing w/bat) that surfaced a while back, same stamp as Anthony's beautiful Oakes card



this is an ad Mr Mint put in the SCD about 20 years ago (June 12, 1992) to test the market demand on the "find" cards. From my understanding he never even owned the cards at this time (if ever), but did this just to see how many phone calls he would get (I called him super quick and was told they were all Sold), thus knowing if he should buy the cards outright, to resell.

That explains a lot. I called too, a bit later since I got SCD from the local shop. Left a message and never heard back.

Besides not liking the boastful flasiness I've held that against him for probably too long.

I did work at a show where the table I worked at was right across from his and got to see the whole "security guards and a casefull of cash" act close up. Good for the show since he actually drew people on his own, less good for the other dealers as most of "his" draw went to his table and left right after.

Anthony, I see that you've Noticed the "Tango Eggs" cards with great interest.
Might you have some kind of Break down of the amount of each card? Your Best guess thru your experience would be appreciated!

Just thought I'd ask...

Oh Yeah, That "Rebel Oaks" of your's is a Screamer... Would go Mighty fine with my Weaver
