Default unopened packs that contain T206s

Posted By: Rob Ray

...Purchased the pack from Mark murphy (from CT...used to be known as "the baseball card kid" or something like that....) Dont know if he's still in business.
A while later,a friendly PA. dealer and his wife purchased the pack from me (this was about about 10 or so years ago)at an East Coast National in White Plains,and upon carefully opening it up (what a whiff from those old ciggies!),carefully pulled out a Joe McGinnity card,which was slightly stained,slightly off centered,but I would have said NM at the time (but for the staining)...no corner wear to speak of. amazing to see. I wish I had kept the sealed pack. I believe I sold it for $250. I dont have the primitive scan I sent to the dealer way back then prior to his purchasing it. I remember the dozen or so folks standing around this guy's huge table at one corner of the ECN while he opened it.
