The author is looking at doing a vol 2, if you can help with some images she may not have
Congrats! Which card is it?I'm the lucky buyer of the 1928 RC which sold tonight.
The owner pulled it out of an old plastic sleeve in a shoebox in a UK midlands attic. HE thinks it's been untouched for 6-+ years. Didn't know what he had and was shocked at the end price.
I think it's going to give the only surviving one over a PSA 6 a run for it's money when I get my hands on it and send it over to PSA.
It's going to live in Melbourne, as all these Bradman cards should reside in Aus.....

The owner pulled it out of an old plastic sleeve in a shoebox in a UK midlands attic, cleaning out after the passing of an extremely old local chap. He thinks it's been untouched for 70-+ years. Didn't know what he had and was shocked at the end price.

After refinding the hobby, this was definitely in the top handful of "grail cards" I wanted for my PC.
I think most of you would understand the rush you get when you land what might be a monumental one..

Got it in my hands tonight.
3/4 Soft corners as you would expect for an almost 100 year old card.
Edges are excellent, no signs of trimming and not much chipping. Perfectly centered. Zero staining.
No pin holes
Colours super bright and all the print intact.
Under 10x there’s micro cracking to the white border as you would expect.
I’ll be really interested to see what this grades.
I’m guessing a 4 or a 5.
As this is the first vintage cigarette card I’ve ever submitted or looked under a microscope, hard to compare vs other examples.
I managed to pick up raw of his Wills rookie card the other day in an auction, so will submit them together.
