In the summer of 1996, Mastro & Steinbach auctioned off the estate of legendary hobbyist Bill Haber. Included in this collection was a group of 640 different T-210 Old Mill cards, representing every different known player at the time, or now. The collection breakdown was 20% Execellent, 45% VG-Ex, 25% VG, 7% good, 3% lesser. The minimum bid was $4000. According to Sports Collectors Digest, who printed the results of the sale a few weeks later, the group sold for $13,801. I know the collector who purchased them and he still has them. Much like Barry Sloate, I will respect the privacy of the collector, but if push comes to shove, Barry & I will gladly accept your wager.
