REA Pickups- 19th Century Heating Up!!

[Rhotchkiss]

I got these, in addition to some 1914 CJ upgrades

Nosebleed auction for me. Picked up 3 great lots.
1906 Foldout postcard with Louis Leroy. Only other way to get Leroy is to mug Scott Brockelman for his W600. 1903 schedule with Adkins on the SL team image rather than later version printed in the 1906 SL portfolios. Jack O'Connor autograph - first team, died in 1937. Now if David Atkatz had just called me, we would have saved a lot of fees!

Just one for me.

Great Pickups Ryan Congrats

DJ, congrats on the Cobb/Wagner! I got one too....although just a little different.

[rjackson44]

Stunning cards guys

[Aaron Seefeldt]

I too got a Cobb/Wagner but in 2 lots. Happy to get a Wagner throwing again but man o’ man they are expensive now!

Ciudad Trujillo photo is a great piece. Very surprised at how much it sold for in a very down market. Multiple past sales were all in the $30,000’s.

Incredible pick-up Ryan.

Southern Leaguers miniset is down to 2 remaining after these pickups, plus was missing Hindu Browns from my collection.

Strong price for this Waddell rookie, for some well-deserved M101-1 love. $8400. More 19th Century strength.

Just a couple for me. Wanted something bigger but very happy with these.

[Belfast1933]

Amazing pick-ups! Several of these were on my radar as well.

Instead, I drifted into my first-ever auto baseball and landed this 12 count 500+ HR ball with Mantle, Mays, Aaron, Williams and 8 other friends!

Couple of upgrades on the E90-2s. The replaced ones will be on the BST soon.

I really wanted to land the 1911 Grover Alexander photo but it wasn't meant to be - happy to pick these three up:

Saw Gibson/Paige etc in person at AC National or Philly Show, just gorgeous.

[calvindog]

Big night. My two top targets and an OJ Anson variation I've never seen before.

[brooklynbotter]

Happy with my Caruthers pickups. Curious if anyone here won the S110? Somewhat surprised it didn't end higher.

Got addie to match up with my Jackson m101-2 .. missed a bunch .. bidding seemed strong .....

Wow Jeff.
You are the one that kept me up late slugging it out for that FM Joe Jackson.

Great pickups especially the FM Jackson

Congrats

I lost out on so many items. Glad to see many of them were won by members here. This was one of my wins that I'm rather stoked about. Great wins everyone!

[Vintagedeputy]

I’ve got an oddball 19th century card coming soon. Don’t want to jinx it yet by showing a preview too soon.

[Fred]

I'm just waiting to see how long it is before material sold in the auction is offered on the BST at even higher prices...

[Rhotchkiss]

Great pickups everyone. Special Congrats to Jeff, Mike and Paul:

Going into this auction, I had my eyes on numerous items. I had to have the W601 Pittsburgh PC. I wanted, and won, a few 1914 CJ upgrades (and a 1915 Joe Wood I thought was a 1914 and do not need). I was also looking at maybe upgrading my E106 Wagner Throwing, getting another E90-1 Jackson, and finishing my 33 Delong set with the nice SGC 5 Gehrig). But, there were a number of bigger-ticket items I was very serious about, including the FM Jackson, the Star Player Candy Gehrig, and the 1937 Ciudad Trujillo picture. I also really wanted the M101-1 Waddell.

Before extended bidding started, I rode the FM Jackson up to about $60k, getting immediately outbid every time. Figuring I was going against someone who had to have the card, I decided not to pursue the card in extended bidding (where it went to the moon). So I pivoted to the Ciudad Trujillo, the Gehrig, and the Waddell. I competed on all of them while I went back and forth on the Ciudad Trujillo. As I batted for that, I finally determined it was what i wanted the most and to buy it come hell or highwater (and then hopefully loan to the Negro league museum or something), at which point I let the Gehrig and Waddell go.

Its always fun to see who was on the other side of last minute auction battles, and congrats to those who bested me -- you paid top dollar for top cards (its what we do)!

Ended up with these T205s, both are the highest graded copies.
