Hake's Auction Last Night - Someone Paid Up for Weed

[Leon]

The Hake's auction last night had a lot of great stuff in it. The red backed Crofts seemed to do very well, and I was a bidder, just not the high bidder. Congrats to the winner(s) on those.

Also, curious of what others thought of the prices on the CSG cards? There were quite a few of them.

And I was surprised that this Weed brought so much!!

Leon, if you were the one who ran the red crofts up, you were being mean. They went for way more than I was expecting so I was only able to add the Devlin to my set. Thankfully, I already had a Bemis.

I bid strong but think there were some other bidders up there too. Sorry about that. I would have liked to have had one, but have a lot of expenses going on...and unlike some on here, I am not made out of money (but I wish I was!!) Congrats on your pick up!

There were some great team PCs in that auction--I stupidly failed to place my bids on a couple of them, although I would have lost on the Edmonton Eskimos anyway.

That Weed PC is neat. I wondered why they had a guy from Chico in the photo, whose white uniform sticks out. I saw that he (Cotton Brooks) had beaten Weed on September 15, 1912 while pitching for Chico. Apparently teams could draft players from other teams for tournaments or playoffs.

Cool stuff from Hakes, as usual.

Congrats on the Devlin DJ, I was on the Bemis but bowed out, congrats to the winner.

Leon, I was watching that Weed PC too, neat card.

I did like that photo and was watching it and I agree did not think it would go any where near that in price

Price of Weed down but those Ed Ibble cards are getting pretty high.

Weed has never been more popular.

I won these incredible postcards for next to nothing. I was wondering if these postcards were not very valuable or did i get a really good deal?
