The murphy's law of collecting...or...M101-6 discussion!

Go for it, Chris...where is this supposed McGraw anyway?????

I will bet my right kidney it sells for more than $500...if there is one for sale in a big auction house!!!!!!!!

Well, I think I have been offered the McGraw by Chris B for 5x sell value at $2,500, Pete?!

But, he may have been kidding.

I know of no McGraw on the market, but if one comes to market, it seems like a nice card to have so I will be interested.

Of course I've just telegraphed my intention to every auction house, so let the shilling begin?!

I'm not interested! He's all yours!!!! Good luck...I'm sure one will come up soon!

Oh the Goodwin preview highlights are up now, Pete.

They've got an M110 Wagner SGC A!

I literally just bought that card.

Time to see if I overpaid or not!

Yes, sir. Right away.

(I actually don't own any M101-6s, but have admired them for a little while now.)

Brian, I have some M101-6's that can be yours if you are getting tired of any of those E107 HOFers - those are one of the few cards that would make me consider giving up my Mendelsohn's

Back on topic...murphy's law of my collecting world...I looked for an orange e98 jennings for a few years...finally got one about 2 months ago...well lookie here! There's another even nicer one on ebay...someone's gonna pay dearly for it!

He has such lovely hands, Pete.

i think he was a hand model in the off season.

I hope he fares better than George Costanza.

the babe finally came today...some observations of mine:

-this card is HUGE...I had no idea!
-the holder is ridiculous in it's size...as I was warned!
-it's amazing how beat up the holder is considering it is like 6 months old
-Wow...that cobb in goodwin sure is sweet!!!!![img][/img]

You bidding?

Not likely ill be a contender... unless it goes cheap!

I could'a been a contenda'!

define cheap.

5-6 k'd b cheap!

agreed, think it will go for more.

But definitely not the 30k Chris B was offered it for.

Though it's Goodwin, so who knows.

Yes...who knows w/goodwin...but the cobb seems to b a lot tougher than ruth...does lichtman need one?! I think 15-20k...who knows?

Lichtman needs a lot of things, but that's all I'll say on a public forum.

Well the catalog came today.

Old Tyrus is on the cover, so expect some HYPE.

One early bid in, pushing it to about $4800ish with BP?

The window is closing, Pete!

Yes I got my catalog too... what the heck is that Vezina going to sell for? I have no clue?

I don't know that Cobb is kind of beaten... it wouldn't look right next to my babe!

I'm thinking 20 K on the cobb...as a hammer price...maybe?

8470??? with BP a few hours in looks like.

Could be a crazy number coming.

should have just bought the lot where it came from... heard the winner has already made back the purchase price BEFORE the Cobb even sells for whatever it's going to sell for.

I wish i had the hindsight to buy a lot like that!!! I remember it...and the supposedly trimmed e97 keeler turned me off...and i didnt know/care much about f&m's...or have any idea how tough the cobb is!!!
