I was an underbidder when the Willie "Puddinhead" Jones Lummis card was included in a lot at Leon's Heritage auction a couple months ago.

I was shocked when the "Puddinhead" Jones card showed up on eBay with a decent BIN. The card just arrived, and I am excited. It is already one of my favorite cards because of how tough they are to find. Thanks to the long-time collector who made the card available.



Eddie, I'm so very happy for you! What a fantastic, meaningful pickup. That's such a swell photo of Puddinhead anyway, and now to own a Lummis; boy, am I impressed. I can sure see why it's already one of your favorites. With the card's strong eye appeal, you have yourself an equally strong conversation piece.

Thanks for sharing your joy with us. ---Brian Powell
