This is a crazy, somewhat entertaining story. Heritage accepted the consignment of a 1941 Josh Gibson signed Puerto Rican League contract in 2007, but it didn't meet the $35,000 reserve and went unsold. We were finally able to convince the owner to sell it without reserve in our April 2009 Signature Auction, where it realized a price of $95,600.
