While the Pre War auction is always one of our smallest in terms of lots this one is our smallest example in a while. That being said 550+ lots of pre war in one auction is significantly more than many companies offer!

Just a great Ruth card. Scott, is that the best card you've ever auctioned? Is there a cool story to go with it, like having to drive to pick it up, waiting for the grade to post, convincing a reluctant consignor to go with Collector Connection? I always love the stories behind the cards we collect.

What would you say are the best five cards you've ever auctioned?

It certainly has a chance to beat our record. We had a freshly graded (most cards we get in are raw and we grade them for the consignor) 1952 Berk Ross Mantle in PSA 8 that's an insane grade for that card and we've had a few 1952 Topps Mantles. We also brought to market the first (and still only) known example of a 1909 Rose Post Card Cy Young with the sticker added to cover the Boston AL since he had been traded to Cleveland. Again came to us raw. Now owned by a board member. Those are the ones that stick out. Oh and an autographed George Mikan Rookie I found in the bottom of a Tastee Kake box full of junk wax era baseball, not even in a sleeve on a house call.

The Ruth was just my advertising dollars at work. Consignor saw one of our print ads. It actually came graded from the original owner's family in Canada, so new to market one owner card. Believe it or not this card is their "test run" and if it goes well I will be getting some other amazing items.

It's pretty exciting, oddly the Ruth might be the best card in the collection (odd that was the test) though there's a '52 Mantle that's still raw that could give it a run for it's money, but it's just tons of $1000 - $10,000 cards which are very important for us.
