Jason -
I am not really familiar with Jack's collection. So, I am not truly suggesting he is holding anything back (I wouldn't know). I just thought possibly he was.
When I heard REA was auctioning off his collection - I thought wow! this is going to be something else! Maybe I overhyped it in my head and set myself up for a let down.
Cards that would have been great to see....
- - no FJ Smiths? Your Vardon would be one of the coolest cards offered, if it was part of the collection.
- - 1898 Ogdens.... would have been cool to see one like in Lew's recent auction.
- - Willards Chocolate?
- - Faulkner - only a partial set?
- - 1900 Copes as you mentioned.
- - Other cools stuff I do not know about
I agree about the grouping..... I don't particularly like the way it was done either.
I am being overly picky I am sure.
This is one heck of a collection.
