Default I bid remotely

I remember the auction well. Also still have my catalogs. Went down to view stuff in person. I won 1 lot - an incredible Pete Rose card collection. I think a number of the very high profile items (Mantle glove (won by Billy Crystal), J Jackson uniform, etc) were proven to be other than what they were supposed to be, so while the quantity of questionable/fraudulent items may have been small relative to the quantity offered, the quality of those items I believe, cast a shadow on the collection and Halper as a whole.
The scope was incredible.
Ironically I've had the "baseball card" promotional set (15) sitting on my desk for a week now as I prep it for sale.

I am accepting select private consignments of quality vintage cards (raw or graded) and collecting "want" lists for higher end ($1K+) vintage cards.
