Inoffensive chipping along the delicate borders proudly frames the clear image of the fearsome Tiger great but so what. The Piedmont advertising reverse is clean and problem-free and doesn't say Reprint anywhere. Modest tobacco-induced discoloration on the obverse prevents an even higher technical assessment if you're keeping score. For the Cobb enthusiast and T205 collector, this premier relic is difficult to match; only 700 graded by PSA with just 200 in a more exalted tier.

And a very sweet card! Enjoy it at least as much as Jihadi enjoys his!

David, keep your day job. Your description did not leave me drooling and begging all of my friends to run the card up, only to be topped by me at the last second.

No. It didn't. But it did leave room for that card to be flipped in a future auction of another rival!

BTW, I was contacted by the underbidder on the Lindy card I won. He's a very good friend and someone I spend a lot of time with at the National shows. I was also contacted by a few bidders on the Goodwin one. There is no doubt in my mind that the Goodwin auction was completely legit. The 2nd-card-out theory held up on this one......

Gosh Leon don't set the record straight now. I just hate when facts get added to the mix it just kills a good ol' Net54 style lynching.

Well there goes this thread...

I sort of hated to be a downer......and right when I was going to announce there were actually 3 guys on the grassy knoll!!

Wait, this thread is not complete until we bash Dave Forman. After all, it's all his fault.

Jeff I know you would not represent Dave unless he were completely innocent so really, let's get back to the real problem of the hobby, Goodwin.

D304 Mathewson SGC 60:

9/30/09 Huggins & Scott $7,312.50
5/3/09 REA $4,700.00
5/30/08 Goodwin $45,123.50
4/29/07 REA $6,462.50
6/8/06 Goodwin $8,471.86

I represent Dave in civil matters only. And last time I checked, Dave Forman wasn't the target of a two year criminal grand jury probe. And he has never been arrested or convicted of a crime. Let's make a list of the other big names in the hobby to determine if they can say the same.
