Grange and Nagurski sell in recent auction

[TanksAndSpartans]

Thanks for all the contributions - this turned out to be a really good thread.

Jeff, somehow I'm not surprised you have one . If this thread proves its a 1925, are you going to keep it?

Mike, awesome info on the "penny scales" - I never heard of this - sounds like something I should've learned from Pawn Stars/Antiques Roadshow etc.

Well, actually, this one is my double

I was wondering why you were selling..... Jeff, could you post an image of your main card? That would give us images of all 3 of the graded cards in one thread, right?

Well, not exactly. My other one is not graded.

The Nag actually was very nice eye appeal, people will pay a premium for that and so do I. I actually placed a bid on that one myself, i was expecting closer to 3k at the hammer. It is the white whale of football.

Jeff, I like that Grange - I see why you're keeping that one.

Chris, I agree, the Nags has good eye appeal, very clean and nicer than the PSA 3 on eBay right now (not so clean), but at that price, for me at the end of the day, the mark is a 2 grade deduction and also a bit distracting to see pencil on the jersey, I still think it went high - I think you dropped out at the right time. If your looking for a Nags, you could check with Jeff to see if his is available....

I personally believe the Chicle Nags is going to continue to climb and climb. It's the T206 Honus Wagner of football: a star player in a very popular pre-war set that is a short print. Perfect storm!

Unfortunately no doubles of this card to sell. I had three but sold both extras to collectors. But keep looking because with the recent sale of 10 of them in an auction, there's more supply out there than there has been in years.
