24 Hours Left! Birmingham Auctioneers 2nd Annual Pre War Auction
Hi Guys,
Hopefully at this point most of you know who I am, but I thought I'd share a little more about my company and I, in the wake of the last interesting year in the hobby. I took over Birmingham Auctioneers in 2018. They were a LIVE ONLY sports card and memorabilia auction founded in 1983 (maybe the world's first sports auction house???) When I took over I tried to move the auction more towards the pre-war cards that I love and it was a bit of a disaster. My live auction excels in 1950's and up and now I know to focus on that. But I couldn't just forego Pre-War cards so I started the online auction. As a long time online buyer I strove to correct the "mistakes" that I saw in other's auctions.
Now to the fun stuff. THE AUCTION! over 300 lots of Pre-War goodness, most of which is consigned by the great members of Net54! Yes it's a lot of our typical lower grade items, but there's still awesome stuff.

The authenticator at PSA brought it back to me personally because he wanted to tell me it was the nicest one he had ever seen. https://birminghamauctioneersbid.com...805_1_8894.jpg 1939 Pasadena Junior College Yearbook Featuring Jackie Robinson https://birminghamauctioneersbid.com...812_1_8636.jpg Amazing Large Glass Negative of Jack Johnson https://birminghamauctioneersbid.com...824_1_8661.jpg Tons of E90-1's with short prints and HOF'ers including Pink Keeler Lots of T206's with HOF'ers 1908 Ogden Complete Set Break both series A number of Abe Attell Items TOUGH W554 HOF'ers T207's including Joe Wood and much more.

Please post any questions or concerns you have to this thread so they can be answered publicly, and thanks to Leon, my consignors, bidders and supporters here on Net54.

Hey Scott,
this post (and the terms on your website) indicates the 15 minute rule starts at 9:00 p.m., but the auction page on your website says the auction ends at 10:00 p.m. does the 15 minute rule start at 10:00 pm? or 9:00 p.m.? Tony |

Thanks for all the support everyone. Only about 24 hours left before extended bidding (10pm Eastern tomorrow night) Still some $10 and under T206's and E90-1's. Some really tough caramel cards, also a couple of tough backs flying under the radar. The Mathewson American Beauty and the common Cycle 460 both have considerable room.
Any photo buffs out there? The glass plate negatives of Abe Attell and Jack Johnson only have an opening bid and they're cool as hell! |
