Ted, is that your sheet? It last sold in a Lipset auction about 10 years ago and someone (hopefully you) got an absolute steal on it. Still kicking myself.

Back in the Fall of 1981, good ole long time collector/dealer and close friend, Bill Bossert, invited me to his BB card shop in Swarthmore,
Pennsylvania. Bill and I were avid uncut sheet collectors, and he wanted me to check-out several vintage uncut sheets he had acquired.

At that time, this 34G Hi # sheet was loaned to Bill by Rob Lifson for Bill's article in the Spring 1982 issue of the Baseball Cards Magazine.

This 25-card sheet was reasonably priced in 1981. I was tempted to acquire it. However, my daughter Debbie had just started College.
And her tuition costs were a higher priority to me at that time than me owning a 47-year old piece of cardboard.

So, I came very close to acquiring it. Anyhow, it's one of my few regrets in this hobby that I didn't.

Best regards, good friend.

Anthony......what did it sell for in Lipset's auction 10 years ago ?

Ted (and Pete) thanks for the replies.

It sold for about $21k in Lipset about 2003-4 IIRC. Figured it would be several times that and woke up the day after the auction kicking myself. Someone got a major steal.

So, who can give me an answer on the value of an uncut sheet? Obviously depends on condition, who is on the sheet....

For example, would an uncut sheet from 1962 with mantle and no ther stars be worth the combined value of the cards, be worth more or less?

Best bet is to check realized prices from some of the auction houses
There were some notable aberrations on '70's sheets recently, don't let those skew your reality
