If you've been following us on social media, you may have read the story about this sensational piece. This lot was actually one of the Top 4 picks for Marc Juteau, our President and founder. Here's what he told us at the beginning of the auction:
"This piece comes with an amazing story of how a consignor brought it in a box of old Baseball schedules and tickets and he had no clue this was in the collection. We are the ones who brought the good news to him once we went through the entire collection, the consignor couldn’t believe it and we are very excited about it."
Now that this lot was sold for the highest amount ever for a baseball ticket, image the consignor's reaction last night when the auction ended ... priceless.
