Ok, here are some pics of this 1955 Koufax, it's signed, sold for extremely low. Is this truly an authentic card? If it is, what a steal.

What did it sell for and where ? Ebay ?
This card is center stage in the Stephen King book Needful Things |

Al, I'm pretty sure it was a signed '56 Koufax. In the movie however, I think it was a signed '56 Mantle...

Don't see how the price and the place was sold really relates to my question...

Wouldn't be more likely that the price of the card was depressed because of the possibly non-authentic signature on it? The card is potentially a PSA 1, if gradeable at all, so the bidder is likely taking that (huge) risk into account when bidding.

I don't want to mention the price because the price would skew ppl's opinions on whether this is authentic or not. If it sold for a low amount, ppl would think it isn't authentic beacuse Sandy charges $400 to sign a card, and a card of this card is worth at least $400-$600+ alone. If it sold for a high amount, then ppl will believe that it is indeed authentic or why would someone pay that much for a questionable card...IMHO |

David--you are right, it was a 56 in the Book. I did not see the movie. King usually has a lot of input into his movies. Wonder how he felt about the switch to Mantle. He is a big Boston fan
The place and price are relevant if it was ebay since savvy investors may have laid off on an ungraded auto. If it was an auction house with some representation, that would be something else. I assume you have an opinion, and you have more info. But never mind..... Last edited by ALR-bishop; 02-29-2012 at 02:59 PM. |
