Tough combo although there are other, nicer examples out there. I had it at 3k-4k if Hall was involved.

Congrats to whomever won it.

it is funny..when we are the one bidding the new highs..when we are the ones actually selling...and there are no new bidders on the scene...just removing us from bidding on the card will make the chance of getting a bid over what you paid hard with buyer/seller premium ..especially if you bought the card within a year or 2....no not the mantle....if only we could clone...

I actually understand what you are trying to say, I think. It is true on limited audience cards that taking one bidder out can drastically change the ending price in auction. I live it every day.

"There are 2 collectors of something, I am one of them. I win it in auction as I couldn't live without it, after a lengthy and fierce battle. I go to sell it in the next few years (maybe ever, actually). Problem."

Congrats Jeff......show us this rare beauty.

I acquired my BLue Hal Chase from my ole buddy in North Carolina approx. 12 years ago.

At that time I believe it was a unique front / back combo. And, it was until very recently.

Still looking for that elusive DRUM to complete my blue Hal Chase run.

right vintage card collectors aren't growing on trees....I just saw an auction where last week I would of bid for sure on 1952 topps psa 7s low numbers..bidding ended at 130 for all 3 cards....last week I bid for sure..and it goes up to 150...maybe whoever bid 130 would of also bid on it more and it goes higher...point is if I were to sell those cards at whatever I won them for.....they sell for 130 if no new bidders on the scene ..or maybe one bidding slot higher that I paid for them...and I eat the premium....

that's why people are usually disappointed when re-selling common cards within a few years ...theres no clone bidders of them.....

It may be the auction houses' way of saying, "Tag, you're it!"
