I'm guessing it had a better chance of hitting the opener if the description had contained the team history. I also agree that cleaning it up, but leaving the 'Forest City' notation would have been better.

Another item they had trouble moving was the 1920 Detroit Wolverines photo - it went for $700+ ten years ago, but only around $500 last night. I thought maybe all the great black baseball stuff would get lost in the middle of the larger amount of Americana stuff, but those Cuban cards went for a fortune.
