So excited as I got the T205 AB backs with 31 cards. Went higher than what I wanted to pay but may retail what I do not want. Cubbies are all upgrades and Kroh is new to me. Can�t wait to get them

Sorry I ran you up on that lot, Ken. I thought one more bid might be too much, depending on how they all grade out. Looks like a high grade group and I was mostly after the M. Brown 2/98 ex card. To me the auction ran fine as they left it open long enough for people to get their bids in. My "white whale" was the T214 Cree, but I never win my white whale, so I have a collection of SGC 86 Rabbit Maranvilles. I only win good cards when I'm plastered at like 4 AM. They are in my collection today.

I know that REA produces some eye popping prices, but the Bond Bread portrait of Jackie Robinson keeps going up and up -- $14,400 in PSA 6 and $5,100 in PSA 3.

I was watching those as well. Looks like it's recognition as his true rookie is gaining steam.

There is a PSA 9 in Heritage that I expect to set a new record for Jackie Robinson Rcs. Jackie Robinson, along with Clemente and Mantle, are the best investments in the post war vintage markets and their cards are the bellwether for the hobby.

Is there a Bond Bread Roby Port PSA 9 in that auction? I saw a Leaf Roby 9 in Heritage however that is not his rookie since it is a 1949 issue.

Server sabotage by Russian trolls in St. Petersburg? An auction house's worst nightmare.

It is already at 156k. Seems like the hobby thinks it is his rookie card. 1st national issue, check. I guess most still prefer a nationally issued mainstream card to a regional.
