Leon....what made you decide to go with Heritage instead of some of the other players in the auction world? I have always been intrigued by them, but just think of them as too big to handle collections properly. Did they give you a sweet deal on commission rates?

Yogi would say, nobody uses them any more, they're too big.

Ha! Good one!

Good luck Leon. I have my eye on a few...we'll have to see how many cards find their way into the hands of fellow Net54ers.

Leon you are going to make me bankrupt . Great items really shows your passion for collecting. If she hasn't already your daughter will realize the sacrifice and love her dad for it. That's priceless.

Bobby, I think Leon already answered this question in a previous thread on his sale: Link, post #36.

This is a great collection. I'm going to go bankrupt if I am able to win even a few of the cards I really want.

I always knew you had one hell of a collection, but seeing it all laid out like that leaves me awestruck. I had to register and bid on a few but I doubt they'll hold up.

I was a "rookie" Pre-war collector when I first joined this board 2 1/2 years ago and never even heard of type collecting. I have to imagine if you looked it up in a dictionary, your collection would be shown. Good Luck with the auction.

I got something similar; he said it should go out in a day or two. I only put in one bid so far, but that's because I really want to take more time looking at the items.
