Nice program, I wish I had that kind of cash to own one. I'm sure my Sox collection won't ever see one.
Restoration - I've done a lot of it on same era brewery advertising to stabilize, preserve and improve the esthetic beauty. Perhaps the program was brittle that restoration was required before it fell apart any further. They did the same thing to Old Glory at the Smithsonian. I couldn't care less about the $$ when evaluating a piece for restoration. It all depends on your perspective. Sometimes it's not all about the almighty dollar (Maybe it's me, but it seems that the almighty buck rules cards more than anything else in the sports collecting hobby - so much is based on minute condition flaws vs. actual rarity). I have friends who have restored sports photographs and lithographs. The auction discloses restoration. If it's not your thing, don't bid.

I agree. If it sells for more, then why not? It's their money, not ours.

buyers prospective
I was the lucky high bidder on the restored 1903 WS Game 1 program. I was aware this was the same program Lelands sold. When it was sold in Lelands, I passed on it as it wasn't pleasing to my eye. When it was offered again through Legendary Auctions, with the professional restoration, it was very pleasing to my eye! I'm excitied to own it. Job well done on the restoration and congratulations to an amazing and fun Live auction in Cleveland. Great job Doug Allen and crew.
