There was a slight delay in opening, but we are live for bidding. Good Luck and enjoy.

I promise not to bump this thread very often....Scott and I just don't advertise on the main page, we prefer to dilute the ad spaces .

I just want to say that we now have our only withdrawn lot, that NEVER even had a lot from the opening minute, get a bid. It is our policy not to discuss bidders but when I saw that I had to LOL....It is lot #235, we had to juggle another lot as it really did get withdrawn, and had that one open spot. But the "no" lot has a bid. This almost has to be first. Too freakin' funny. To the bidder, and you know who you are (you can say if you want to, I won't), YOU are the MAN!! You made my morning. .

Good luck to everyone in the auction. There does seem to be something for collectors on almost every budget.

just when money is real tight you come out with this auction... Great auction by the way. Alas, all I can do is drool. oh well

Very nice selection! I just added a few lots to my watchlist.

It's very nice to see such a wide price range. This is truly an auction with something for everyone.

I had lunch with Leon today after the postcard show, I found some nice New York post cards I wanted (Non-Baseball) -- he did not find anything.

One of the best and underrated aspects of the B&L auctions is the preview. In the previews, if someone sees something which may be a problem, the item can be pulled before it even gets to the floor. To me, this transparency solves so many problems. If every auction house did this, then I suspect we would reduce, but not eliminate, some of the issues that come up on this board.

Yes, but most of it was 80's postcards (after all it is a postcard show). I saw about 2-3 decent, pre-1930 postcards of generic teams and they were about "high" ebay prices....I could have haggled but I can get the same thing for less anyway, so why bother. All of the people are real nice so that is always a plus. And if we think median age of this board is bad I bet the show was about an average of 65-70. (I am not dissing those ages as I see them in the headlights for myself!!)

I got two lots in the auction. A lot of 10 30's R cards which included a Mickey Mouse & Movie Stars cards (The first one I have obtained) plus a group of 5 N2 Indian Chiefs all graded PSA5.

A great auction, looking forward to the next one. Keep those NonSport cards coming.

Consigned 2, won 2..............very pleased on both ends. Should have bid a little higher on a couple lots but then Jerry would have had to paid more! As it is, I cost him at least a couple bids and he still got it reasonable....

M's Fan-Rebacking is not necessarily a bad thing, and not necessarily done to deceive. In the case of Old Judge cards, many cards were skinned (the back removed) before glueing them into scrapbooks. The photo portion of the card is very fragile so when these cards were decades later removed from scrapbooks they were rebacked for preservation purposes. Without this rebacking the photos would easily have been destroyed. This is not to say that all Old Judge rebacking fits this description, but a decent portion of it does.
