REA: What Did You Win?

I got nothing. I was high bidder for a while on the T214 Oldring but I went to sleep. I'm not too upset about it as I didn't want to go any higher on it. Ah well.

Sorry Zach, that was me. When there was no action on the other lot I was winning, I decided I could go one more on something else, and it was the Oldering. The other lot I picked up was the A.W.H. Shag.

Bob, what is that? A cigar box top? Cool, neat to see the swastika before the evil that is now associated with it. It used to be a symbol of hope and good fortune, used in many cultures around the world. It is interesting that the same symbol was used from Native American tribes to Hindus, with the oldest know example found in the Ukraine dating 12000 years ago.

It is an original color process proof used in the production of the circa 1910 Cy Young tobacco tin. I have attached my Cy Young tobacco tin

Edjs, I was the closest underbidder on the Shag, but did manage to win with the E222 Sieber. I'm so so happy to add an example of this impossible type for that price, and I think you got the Shaughnessy at a really incredible price!

Seth, I was happy with the final hammer on the Shag, I had a higher autobid, always refreshing when it doesn't hit your max. That allowed me to go get the Victory Oldering as well.

Bob, that really is a cool piece now that I see it for what it really is. It will look great with that tin!
