Fantastic T-card "walk-in" (with provenance) at Phillly Show. You'll enjoy this story

[Rhotchkiss]

That’s awesome, congrats Dan (and Ted). Must have been so cool to look through the binder

Ted,

Congratulations! These stories always make me think how many collections are sitting in different places, undiscovered or just kept private from the hobby at large. Would love to see some of the cards you were able to purchase. Hope everything is well.

No, Ted, the moral is that they knew they were dealing with good guys and total pros who made them a big-time offer with no BS. Congrats!

I found this story interesting. Sounds like you did ok by this couple. Nothing worse than trying to hide the value of something and lowballing folks. Congrats on the cool purchase. Yes we’d love to see some pics!

That's great. Sounds like it was an original collection that one of the heirs added to the binder pages at some point. Any Demmitt's or O'Hara's?

Hi Rob

About 1/2 of these 200 cards are T206's; and, I was hoping that a Demmitt or an O'Hara was in this group. Neither one of these variations are in this collection.

Perhaps, those two guys were only shipped out to St. Louis, rather than Lehigh Valley, PA.

Hi Joe

This T205 Quinn is the only card I currently have from this collection. Dan pulled this one out of the binder because he knew I needed a POLAR BEAR of Quinn for my T205 run.
I expect we will be doing some forthcoming deals between us regarding this collection.

This T205 Quinn is typical of many of the 200 cards in this collection.

Incredible that one of the cards you needed was sitting in the binder. Sometimes it just works out that way. Like you said, Ted I'm sure there will be many deals in the forthcoming. Hope you had a great Philly Show.

There have been quite a few of these finds this year more than usual it seems interesting that these were all Polar Bear.

Hi Ryan

The POLAR BEAR collection, and our lengthy conversations with you were the highlights of our Philly Show this weekend.

Take care my friend.
