it was good enough for you coupled with the content Me too.. hence me bidding. I think we can agree that without the content.. it would go for a fraction of the price(s) realized.

I won the Anson Cigar box and I bid high on the Cobb photo but was a mere $10k short. I also got outbid at 4am for the Erskine All Star bowl. Sigh.... I did however pick up a Joe Jackson Paul Thompson Type 1 photo (not in Leland's) to ease the pain a bit that once I receive it I will show.

Yeah, without any writing at all by Van Oeyen (just his stamp), or the Cobb ownership, I don't know what I would have bid - maybe $1,500-$2,000?


Nice box, Bob. And congrats on a Thompson Joe Jackson.

Thanks for the kind words Scott. I can't wait until I get it in the mail. I figure (other than bats-I have 7) there can't be a lot of T206 player memorabilia floating around (other than the big name HOFers). Or maybe there are?
