* CONTEST WINNER dan8402 *

Well , the day has finally come , my auction at Heritage has started , as many of you know I am auctioning my 1932 Yankees team signed baseball and I want to have a contest to give something away .

Originally I wanted to have a 1st , 2nd and 3rd place prizes , but that might become a little too confusing for me , it was going to be $100.00 for 1st , $70.00 for 2nd and for $30.00 , but I changed my mind , the winner that get's closest to the final price without going over , "not including buyers premium" will win $200.00

To let you know , the reserve is $10.000 and they are starting it at 7500.00

1 guess per person , no edits and the auction ends on May 3rd .

I do not get any payment until a month and a half after the auction , but I do not expect the winner to have to wait , so I will mail it out as soon as we find out who won .

Pretty simple huh ?

Here is a link to the auction and my baseball is lot #19503 on page 2 in the middle of the page .

Good luck everyone !

$18,000 . Good luck to you on your sale. I know you must be VERY proud of that gorgeous ball. At least you'll have a nice glossy catalog as a keepsake, and a nice large check to ease the pain of letting it go. I sold a complete run of US Presidents in April or March of 05 and I kept the catalog as a keepsake. Used the check for a new to me Porsche, and really haven't missed the Presidents yet!!!

That is a truly great baseball. Best wishes on the sale.

TNTonPMS · April 9, 2008 12:28PM

"I have no idea - 31,275."

LOL Mr. Stone I have no idea either and either did Heritage , they told me they have never had one like it to measure it by , I did ask what they thought it could bring .

Personally I have looked far and wide and I have only seen 1 even remotely close to it and that was in Smithsonian Baseball , by Stephen Wong .

And mines a tad nicer looking , but his had 22 sigs , in the book it said it would be extremely difficult to come across a 32 in that condition like his . . . but , I guess demand will dictate exactly how difficult
