Robert Edward Auctions and Heritage end Saturday
Posted by Steve
If you read my last blog or follow auctions at all, you know that two major auctions end on Saturday. The bidding in both auctions will really pick up in the next day so don't pay much attention to the current bids. First,
Heritage
starts at 11:00 CST with a phone/internet auction. I attended the live auction last year. They have 828 lots this year, with regular internet bidding ends at 9:00 CST tonight, then extended for two hours and then starting again tomorrow for qualified bidders.
The biggest item is a
T206 Honus Wagner
. It's graded Poor by SGC, but who cares, it'll still go for a pile of money. It's at $150,000 right now. Other major lots include:
1933 Goudey near complete (238/239), high-grade set ($60,000)
T206 Eddie Plank SGC 40 ($50,000)
1952 Topps Baseball complete set ($42,500)
T206 near-complete set ($31,000)
Single-signed Tiger Woods baseball ($1,600)
(I know it's not one of the top items, but it looks pretty amazing.
Next,
Robert Edward Auctions
caps off its once-per-year auction at 3:00 CST tomorrow, but we all know you'll need to stay up into the night for the extended bidding, which really gets interesting if you've ever played that game with any major auction. There are a ton of amazing pieces in this one, also led by a
T206 Wagner BGS 1
, which is already at $250,000.
Other huge items include:
1914 Babe Ruth Baltimore News rookie card ($220,000)
1889 Cap Anson and Buck Ewing "Burke Ale" beer poster ($140,000)
T206 near-complete set (520 of 524) PSA-graded ($100,000)
1921 Ruth side-written game-used bat ($70,000)
1914 E145 Cracker Jack complete PSA-graded set ($65,000)
1962-65 Jim Brown Cleveland Browns signed game-used jersey ($32,500)
T206 Ty Cobb with a Cobb back (Frank Nagy example) ($30,000)
I personally can't wait to see what a lot of these auctions end at. They'll be added to our
SCD Auction Prices Database
asap so you can compare them with past auctions.
