PWCC Lenox Backs

[MVSNYC]

Yes, some went low, but many were very strong (clearly the HOFers and better condition commons...very strong prices).

I think Lenox (Black & Brown) are still (and always will be) absolutely considered very rare, but Ryan nailed it...there were way too many being sold at once, and he and the consignor were not bidding, that took out two major bidders.

becollie- Let's see what you won!

I picked up this example, which for around $1,000 all-in, a steal, IMO...due to the factors that Ryan mentioned.

I won one for my back run. I agree with everything Ryan said...and glad he wasnt bidding cause he woulda bid me into the ground.

Are you sure this one is Brown? I don't think mechanical errors are within the purview of the PSA Grade Guarantee.

Great cards, guys!

Inceptus, thanks!


Hi John, I never said it was Brown. It’s Black.

Sorry about that; I misread the slab.

That one is black, and slabbed as such

That card is very nice.

The black gloves in the video that doesn't really show any details though.... Just strange. Even many professional archives have backed way off on the former requirement for white cotton gloves when handling objects.

Very nice. That same card sold as an SGC 5 for $16,800 in REA in April of 2016. Over 7 years later, and several booms in T206 and rare back values, and after being crossed to PSA, the card sells for $300 more. A year ago, with Seller and I bidding on this, the card would have gone for well over $30k.

These PWCC auctions are really providing an amazing opportunity for people to get some super tough cards at very reasonable prices (relatively speaking). Its almost philanthropical!!
