Interesting eBay Auctions of the Week
January 26th, 2012 | Published in Interesting eBay Auctions
Happy Thursday! Here are the week’s interesting eBay auctions for vintage football cards and related collectibles:
- Here’s one for fans of the NFC Champs: a set of 1959 or 1960 Jays Publishing New York Giants photos, with envelope. (The listing says 1959, but Beckett says 1960. I don’t know which is correct, since the 12 players were on the team both seasons.)
- This is amusing: a 1957 Topps Fred Cone card with a history of its locations. Do you know where your cards have been?
- I don’t see many complete 1949 Leaf sets for sale. Here’s a pretty nice mid-grade set.
- Another nice complete mid-grade set: 1952 Bowman Smalls, with lots of pictures.
- And a near-set of 1952 Bowman Large cards, mostly PSA 6 and 7. I’d do the math, but I don’t have $15K lying around!
- Matchbooks of the week: intact 1949 AAFC Baltimore Colts matchbooks of Spiro Dellerba and Sam Vacanti. 1949 was the last season of the AAFC; in 1950 the AAFC Colts, 49ers, and Browns joined the NFL. Very cool.
- Miscuts of the week: two 1955 Bowman Dave Leggett cards, one with part of a Harry Thompson card on top (see my 1955 Bowman virtual uncut sheets), and one with a chunk of the top cut off.
- And, finally, your well-loved cards of the week: 1954 Bowman Pete Pihos and Jerome Williams. Check out the back of the Williams card!
