Anyone win any photos in Legendary's Auction?

I was runner-up on Arron's 715 HR photo. However, I did add a couple of nice TYPE I photos to my collection...and there is still a few I have my eye on for tonight.

I won a couple of the bulk lots but not any of the individual shots.

Hi Jimmy - I won a few - will see what happens tonight.

1926 Yankees (surprised this one didn't go for more - love those jackets)

Maris pauses at Ruth's monument (sentimental favorite of mine)

Joe D and the Rook wirephoto (I have a Type 1 of this from Joe D's estate - always nice to pair the original with a wirephoto sample)

Hope you did well.

What did the '26 Yanks go for? It's one of the best IMO of all the Yankee Team photographs.

I missed that Maris at the Babe's monument. Would love to add that one to my Maris collection.

Like you, I also like to match a TYPE III with the original TYPE I. I think they present wonderfully together.


Although I do have an incredibly clear TYPE III (wirephoto) of Joe & Mick, I don't have my hopes up too high that I'll ever find a TYPE I. Good luck to you tonight as well. Sincerely, Jimmy

Jimmy - The '26 team went for less than $500 - I was surprised, really. Thought I'd lost that one. (I had a mutual friend help to give it a 90% accurate Type 1 status, just based on the scans. The U&U stampings lead me to believe it is a Type 1. )The 1923 went for 3-4x more.

I have quite a few original team photos of the Highlanders/Yankees, but missing many from the late teens, 20'-22', 25', '27 & 29'-'31. Don't care for them beyond 1932 or so.

Didn't know you collected Maris. Will see if I can part with that one

Great pick-ups guys!

I grabbed this photo of Mantle after hitting #535 off Denny Mclain when he grooved one in for him. I just love the reaction of the Detroit fans b/c it was his last at bat there.

[GKreindler]

That's a hell of a photo 3and2!! Like many of the photos from that auction, it would make a killer painting.

Thanks, I was really happy to pick it up. Also, I've checked out your website and you have awesome pieces. Especially, of the Mick.

[GKreindler]

Thanks Anthony, I appreciate it! I take it you're a big Mantle fan? I have a couple more that I'll be posting on the website soon. Actually, they'll probably be shown on the boards even before that happens!
