Pretty Amazing One of a Kind Jackie Robinson at Memory Lane

[filmmaker]

Just looked at the Memory Lane Catalog and spotted a Rarity in the Auction.

Lot #56: A One of a Kind POP 1 Jackie Robinson Premium PSA 2 with MBA Gold Sticker for Eye Appeal.

I've never seen this item and I've been collecting my entire life.

What do you guys think? I love the image and love that its actually from his playing days; 1955 (Year Dodgers won World Series)

Your consignment?

Nice unusual item.

Daryl, To me, it does not matter if the item is his consignment. A GOOD auction needs all the help it can get communication-wise. IF I was not on Memory Lane's mailing list to get their catalog, and IF I was a Jackie Robinson connoisseur, I would for sure want to know about it, so I could register to bid.

There is absolutely positively nothing wrong with trying to drum up potential business for your own cause. The exception of course is shill bidding, but that's not a part of my point here.

Knowing the pathetic cynicism rampant in our hobby, I am not the consignor. --- Brian Powell

eh, would much rather have the original photo, but that's just me.

Nothing in the OP suggests it's his consignment - "I've never seen this item and I've been collecting my entire life." - so, if he is actually pushing his own consignment, that would really suck.

Good point. Question withdrawn.

LOL. I'd wager some damn good money that this is your consignment.

Good to have you back.

I think a simple acknowledgment and editing of the original post would suffice. Seems like a first offense. I’m all for making things right if it’s something (imo) fairly minor and not deceiving to the point of no return.

Would be awesome if the OP's offense was the worst thing to happen to collectors but it is a poor reflection of his character. No sugarcoating needed. We need more honest participants in the hobby which has attracted an overwhelming number of shady, deceptive, and disingenuous people.

+1. Unfortunately we have a bunch of crooks, fraudsters, card doctors, pumpers, shills, disingenuous people and liars who are not even good at lying instead.

Oops, I mean if it makes dollars it makes sense! Let's get that cash boys. Money money money.

Yup!!!

Being morally bankrupt is ok in the hobby as long as you have stacks of cash.
