Some highlights:
T206s – If you are a “Sovereign” fan this auction is a dream come true! There is a near set of all Sovereign backs and a lengthy selection of singles and groups plus many others. If you are a T206 fans you HAVE to look for the cards from the “Endicott, NY” find. In the ten years I have been working auctions I have certainly gone through tens of thousands of T206s. No, these are not the highest graded but who cares. Visually, they are some of the most beautiful looking T206s I have every handled. Don’t want to leave out a Lenox back, Plank and “Magie” error.
