Good luck Leon...what is the procedure to receive a catalog? By the way, this is most varied and interesting vintage card auction I have seen in my collecting career (we are talking decades).

I have the same question and observation!

[Leon]

You guys are the best... Every member who wants a catalog will get one. Let me check but i know they were shipped yesterday (from what I was told) with the Platinum Night catalogs. Also, many members that bid in their card auctions will get one too. You can email Peter Calderon for help with a catalog.

Leon, Your collection is jaw-dropping. I'll be bidding on a couple of these. Good luck in the auction.

[bwbc917]

Best of luck, looks very impressive. Odd that I got the Heritage catalog for their 70's set break, but not for this. Glad you posted it.

catalogue please

matty and overprint my top ten cards of all time....

btw........your matty proof is one of a handful of very special "proto type" proofs...cards that never made it into the set.........cards that were not part of the final production card...

the matty is one of them..as I'm sure you know..8 unknown (now known) southern leaguers..also some from the first print group...nichols, shulte, alperman, pastorious, McIntyre, and the unissued collins..just WOW!!!.....that card ALONE is a small piece of history....basically part of the original designs of the set

my my.....

btw....hundreds of t206 proofs discovered was not the case!! I had spoke with one of the original collectors who purchased a few proofs and was there.....there were less than 80 or so t206 PROOFS that were brought to light at the '72 show.....about 33 of them are documented so far......the rest are either "lost" over the years or just tucked away in collectors who do not advertise them.....INCREDIBLE STUFF! the lines were omitted on the cap and not part of the original artwork....WOW!


the multi strike is basically the "T206 ROSETTA STONE".......

I can not express the sheer significance of these 2 cards on the set....

must have been tough to part with leon.....I wish I could afford either....

[Northviewcats]

Good luck Leon. Wonderful collection. I hope you receive record prices.

Truly a once in a lifetime auction for a great cause!

Good luck, Leon!

[Jdoggs]

Very nice collection!!

[pokerplyr80]

They're all great cards but I love that Joe Jackson. I should stay focused on my goal to get a 52 Mantle, but may need to put that on hold for a while.

[Rickyy]

We probably won't see a wonderful type card collection like this come up for sale again for a long time... Dang I forgot Leon even had that Gilmartin Printing Issue!

I think everyone will bid aggressively to get what card(s) they want.

As Tom Cruise in the movie, Risky Business said, "Sometimes, you gotta say WTF"

[Spartan]

I want a catalog ! However possible

[Delray Vintage]

Could not find the P&S on the auction. Read it had been pulled by Heritage due to concerns about whether it was part of New York Public Library missing part of collection. I had hoped to bid. Feel bad for Leon if this is a missing piece.
