My "white whale" in this auction was this Western Playground of Peckinpaugh, https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...e?itemid=52134 , which I wanted for my collection of 1924 Senators. I am shocked at what it sold for (I didn't win it), especially as a nice SGC 30 of another player sold for half of what Peckinpaugh sold for. I assume two WP set collectors badly needed the Peckinpaugh card.

Speaking of cards that went strong, how about this PC: https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...e?itemid=51979 I realize there are some hard-core T210 collectors, but "holy moly, that's a lot of moolah."

Val,

A SGC 10 of Peckinpaugh, I assume the same card, sold in 2007 for $4650.99. So the price seemed to me to show lack of maturity on the investment, given 11 years have passed.
