Goodwin Auction

We found the bidding in last evening's Goodwin auction to be very competitive particularly on the four items on which we were bidding.

We were only able to win one lot (link below)

What were your impressions of the Auction and the prices realized?

I can see why you wanted that Pennock. It is a REALLY nice looking card for a 5 and from a condition sensative set.

The Doyle T206 SGC authentic went for $186K!! Seeing how REA sold an SGC 50 for $329K last year, I initially thought it wouldn't go that high, but I guess it had a nice appearance.

It's not prewar, but I was shocked to see the SGC 30 1952 Topps Mantle go for $10,555. It looked to be pretty harshly graded, but I was surprised to see it go that high.

That's about 50% higher than it should be, but the flowery prose WAS well written!

High price but that card had the visual appeal of a much nicer card, imo. The centering was almost the best I have ever seen on a '52 mantle. If I had an extra 10k I might have been a bidder. It is a really nice card..

I'm shocked....utterly shocked ! ! To hear that you are interested in a 1952 Topps Mantle

I pulled this one from a 5-cent pack in the Fall of '52. To me it's priceless. But, if I ever decide to trade
or sell it, I will let you have 1st crack at it.

Ted- that is a great looking card. It begs the question though, as a young boy, I guess you played with it some? I appreciate the thought of a first crack if you ever sell it !!
