Has Anyone Ever Discovered, Sold and Re-Acquired A Card? T212-3 Weaver

Hi Leon

Interesting topic. Here is my story, I completed my 1948 BOWMAN set in 1982. Then, in 1994, I sell this set to Alan Rosen.

Circa 2004, I get a call from an old friend, Tony, from the Jersey Shore area. He is selling his BB card collection. So, I get into
my old T-Bird and make the trip to Toms River. First, I check out his pre-war cards, then I start sorting thru his BOWMAN sets.

While I am going thru the 1948 set, I stop and take a close look at the Musial card, and instantly I realize that this was my set
which I sold to Rosen. The back of the Musial card has a distinct mark on it that was unmistakable. I asked Tony if he acquired
all 48 cards as a complete set, or did he put it together, piecemeal ? Tony replied that he bought this complete set from Rosen.

So, over a period of 22 years this set cycled back to me. I love this type of stuff.
