Totally agreed. For those that read the other forum, too - there was just a small 1914 CJ find yesterday which included a Cobb and a Matty. The cards were tucked inside a letter thatw as purchased at a flea market.

I think it was an estate sale, but yes, very cool find!

Awesome find Trae!

I've got a friend who has done hundreds of estate sales, but he's never come up with anything like that! Great find--pumps lots of energy and excitement into the hobby amongst veteran collectors!

Best wishes,

Larry

Thanks, everyone!

Here's my latest update - got to see everything in-person today, we're packing most of it up for grading, and some of the "worst" raw stuff is in the B/S/T.

I've been contacted privately for a few items, but I'll be posting everything else leftover for sale when it comes back from SGC and PSA.

Wow. What a haul.

I'll be looking for these on the BST earnestly.
