Masterpieces and Uncommon Commons XLIX" will be open for bidding on Saturday, May 11th and closes on Wednesday June 5th.
Dear Collector:
Dear Collector,
I would like to welcome you to Masterpieces & Uncommon Commons XLIX.
You will find the seldom seen or, perhaps, never seen before cards of
some of baseball's greatest legends in this catalog. A few examples are
an 1886 Welton Cigar card of Buck Ewing, a 1938 Chicago Cubs World
Series ring and a 1917 Boston Store Joe Jackson. We are proud to offer
complete sets of E93 Standard Caramel with cards grading as high as PSA
8, an outstanding 1934 Goudey set and an E103 Williams Caramel set.
T206 collectors will be ecstatic at the tremendous selection which
includes a complete set offered as individual lots and rare backs
including Drum and brown Lenox. Speaking of rare backs, when was the
last time that you saw multiple Hall of Fame cards from the M101-5 set
with Green Joyce and Successful Farming advertising backs? You will
find other rarities such as a 1915 Boston Red Sox team postcard with the
rookie Babe Ruth, a W600 Honus Wagner and Hall of Fame Old Put Cigar
cards. Topps and Bowman aficionados will discover mint PSA graded
examples of Musial, Mantle, Williams, Banks and Brooks Robinson to name
a few.
We feel that there is something for everyone in this catalog and
sincerely hope that you enjoy the auction.
Good luck enjoy the auction,
Regards,
Bill Goodwin
