Not prewar, but this is a set that has special meaning to me. A longtime dealer I respect a lot, used to always tell me how rare these cards were and how cool they were. Plus, I think he remembered watching the competition live on TV.

This one is for you Jay!

I loved watching those old episodes in my younger years...they were "hokey!!!"

"People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring." - attributed to Rogers Hornsby. Back in the day there wasn't cable TV, 24-7 news cycles, cameras in everyone's faces. Winter meant no baseball. Zero zip nada. In 1960 at least we had Home Run Derby. We got to see our baseball heroes up close in the California sunshine in glorious black-and-white while we were freezing our butts in living color. Home Run Derby was "must see TV" for this erstwhile ten-year old. Very cool pick-up.

does anyone know who won the W572 set? If so, I have an additional piece that goes along with the set. Have them contact me.

Their shipping is beginning to rival REA. My lot arrived yesterday. I thought a lot of the 19th century items went cheap.

HeRitage doesn’t charge for shipping either?

I paid like 8 minutes after getting invoiced. Did they send you a tracking number? Haven’t heard a peep and my account doesn’t show shipped.

The tracking numbers shows up under orders. They also send out an email when the item ships.

My item was shipped before i even paid. I guess I’m
A “big boy” now.

Same here, just not sure how. I think this was only like my 3rd time winning something from them. Maybe I spent too much in the past?

Same with me - I paid same day and no tracking number anywhere or shipping email.

Guess I'm not a "big boy" like some others...

I paid within minutes of getting the invoice and was notified they were going to wait a couple of weeks before they shipped. Only been buying in every auction since 2008 or so and always pay immediately. After calling them they said they would not wait to ship. Guess I will see if this ends up being true.
