As I mentioned previously in the Goodwin preview thread, there were two minor league team postcards c1910 both graded 1.5 by SGC with a HOF'er pictured on each (actually one had two but they were both post-ML career). Starting bid on each was $500 and they both reached $600 in the bidding.
Only a few months ago, I consigned a c1910 minor league team postcard w/Joe McCarthy graded an SGC 1.5 and the auction house would only put a minimum bid of $100. The postcard sold for $100 + $18 juice. To me, either I chose a really poor auction house (although many on this board are big fans of them) or the starting bid certainly made a big difference on very similar type items.

Phil, sometimes factors impact an auction which are more influential than either a soft economy or very determined bidders. And sometimes those factors are absent.
It may be that the "really poor" auction house you noted just was battling a poor economy and did not have any extra, super-special PEDs in play.

"Now if Bohen or Fullerton appears, you might be looking at record bids. (Right Steve and Peter?)"
For sure! I've been putting $100 a month aside for years just waiting for the Bohen to pop up. Congrats guys on the nice Z11 pickups. I'm real pleased to have the Bernard now putting me just two away from completion. |

Speaking as a collector, something tells me that many of the items in future auctions will also be a bit more affordable.

I picked up 4 that I needed, Driscoll, Halla, Heitmuller and McKune and quite a few upgrades of some dogs. Still have 5 to go Arlett, Bohen (have not been packing away $100 a month for this), Hosp, Lindsay & Phfl. I have picked up 8 needed in the last year, but the clock is ticking. With upgrades over the years I now have 85 dups with 64 different. Still working on 1912 Zeenuts, got 1 in Goodwin auction. Have 102 with 57 to go harder to complete than 1911 I think, however a do have a nice 1912 Bohen.
