    I knew they had one.... what is the price? Got to have a wax box though

    No wax. I picked up one of the cellos that had Bradshaw and Harris on top...hope someone cool grabs the other one...real nice shape and Steve told me about the origin of the boxes...very pleased and a great add to the collection.

    I believe the boxes are shrink wrapped...

    Got to see Steve's box in person and talk about an absolute monster of a box. Just an awesome pickup!

    Ya, I was pretty lucky on getting this but there are quite a few other amazing items remaining.

    Yep...saw a 1973 football wax box authenticated by BBCE already. It isn't at Steve's booth though. It looked clean!

    A beauty! Wish a 73 baseball cello box would surface one of these days! ;)

    the 1973 fb wax box was at Tony Arnold's booth

    I just found out the 73 box sold! Dang..... that box has become a white whale for me. The hunt continues

  • belzbelz Posts: 1,217 ✭✭✭

    Steve remains the coolest in the hobby...he just got done telling me the story that someone was hovering over me to buy my box and he couldn't pull the trigger on Tuesday when he saw it. He ended up buying the other cello. Best part is I'm taking the box into the shop to take pictures of the packs on black felt and he's resealing it for no charge...not sure if he is doing this because I've been a long time customer of his or he's just a great guy..regardless, I'm pumped and wanted to share.
