And a great Sports Collectors Daily article that discusses these cards and how they came to the market:

So I think Jeff deserves a little catalog preferential treatment. It sure would be fun to be associated with something featured on the front AND back cover of a REA catalog.

My hobby dream come true is soo right! The hardest part was keeping the story under wraps for months until The NY Times broke the news a couple of weeks back.

The Boston Media has been loving this story - Ruth with the Sox, found in Mass, Morehouse Baking in Lawrence Mass, etc

It’s been a lot of fun. And now, I’ll be hosting an Auction Watch Party with the owner of these amazing cards - hope some of these cards end up with Net54 members!
