leonI did speak with Doug a while back about the collection as he told me he had received it. As I recall Doug went over for a normal visit, as they are in the same proximity, and he and Doug are friends (not sure for how long). He said that he was giving a card back to him (I think he might have gotten it graded) and Lionel told him to take "them". When Doug inquired about taking "the" card to auction Lionel told him "no, the whole collection". Doug was floored. My understanding is that there isn't much obscure type stuff but sets of Goudey's, and E cards in really nice condition......Not sure how many "n"'s or other stuff there is. Nothing like opening packs of Goudeys and taking the cards out and preserving them !!......All you high grade collectors should be salivating. I don't think it's a security issue, as much as it's just time, though I guess it could be. Hint- I bet we see some really big borders.....regards
ps....maybe Doug will chime in for us ....
