Closing Tonight - Love of the Game Auctions
 

Hi All:

Just a reminder that the Love of the Game Winter Auction closes tonight.

The extended bidding period begins at 9PM Eastern, with the 15 minute rule pertaining to the entire auction. The auction has more than 1200 lots, so I expect that this one will be open late.

There are still some lots that seem to be flying under the radar, so I thought I'd draw your attention to them here.

There's a super rare 1915 Schmelzer's Ty Cobb pinback, the highest-graded example known (PSA 7), one of just a handful known to exist.

There are also a couple of really nice team-signed baseballs: the 1928 Athletics (w/Cobb, Grove, and Cochrane), 1934 Cubs (w/Hartnett, Klein, Herman and Cuyler), the finest 1954 Giants ball I've ever seen, and a nice, affordable single-signed Babe Ruth.

There's also a great selection of game-used Hall of Famer bats, including a 1928-29 Lou Gehrig, a 1952 Roy Campanella All-Star (PSA/DNA GU 9), a 1927-28 Tris Speaker, a 1965-68 Willie Mays, and many more.

The auction has our largest selection of memorabilia ever, and is highlighted by the 1930 Boston Post Old-Timer's Game Lou Criger appreciation poster, signed by 49 deadball era figures (including 12 Hall of Famers).

I know this week has been a tough week for the hobby. But it's still the greatest hobby in the world. Please bid with confidence and enthusiasm; we love and value the hobby and its purity as much as all of you!

Warm Regards, and good luck!

Nice to be able to bid in an auction where I have 100% confidence in the integrity of the operator. Rare thus.
