High-grade cards, impressive cuts lead Mile High sale
Posted by Steve
Mile High Card Co.
has been known for offering some of the best vintage sportscards and memorabilia in the hobby and its Feb. 13 auction is no different. The auction is live on the site and is one of the strongest I've seen from them.
Mile High is known for having elite graded cards. First, they offer a variety of
Shoeless Joe Jackson
cards in this auction, including a 1914 Cracker Jack PSA 5, 1916 Herpolsheimer’s PSA 6 and a 1909-11 American Caramel E90-1 SGC 10.
Next, there are dozens of vintage PSA 10 cards, led by the following:
1956 Topps No. 110 Yogi Berra
1959 Topps No. 350 Ernie Banks
1962 Topps No. 213 Richie Ashburn
1963 Fleer No. 42 Sandy Koufax
1967 Topps Tom Seaver RC
1968 Topps No. 280 Mickey Mantle
Other card-related highlights include hundreds of PSA Mint 9s in the sale, dozens with populations of one, including: 1950 Bowman No. 98
Ted Williams
, 1954 Topps No. 10
Willie Mays
, 1957 Topps No. 10 Willie Mays, 1957 Topps No. 328
Brooks Robinson
and 1958 Topps No. 1 Ted Williams.
Other card highlights include several high-grade T-202s, including
Ty Cobb
, along with several graded sets, many of which land in the top 10 of PSA’s Set Registry. Among those are a 1948 Leaf set with variations, 1955 Bowman Football, 1955 Topps Baseball, 1963 Topps Football and 1973 Topps Baseball.
Finally, some of the top memorabilia items include a 1934 Tour of Japan team-signed ball featuring Ruth, Gehrig and Foxx, among others, as well as several high-grade 1908 Rose postcards, including an Addie Joss example. There's also a nice selection of cut autograph cards, including a George Washington and Thomas Jefferson dual-cut card, and examples from Thomas Edison, Ruth, Tim Keefe and Honus Wagner.
