Any luck?

I'm leaning towards him not having it. Seems to be the norm when people come on here and post things like this but are incapable of loading into photobucket (which hasn't had any issues as of late as far as I know) and copying/pasting an [IMG] code.
Additionally, when someone says they drop $2,000 and then asks if they got a good deal? I wonder about a person who forks over that much money apparently not knowing at all what they are buying. There are only two of these cards graded a 5 by BVG.
With that said, I'm probably one of the more cynical people you'll run across. If I'm wrong, I'll eat crow.

I have to agree with my esteemed colleague. And I know that Beckett lists his '33 Goudeys as "RCs" but they are far from the first cards of him issued. I've always had a problem with the "RC" designation that Beckett has established.

^ They list the 1st licensed card from a baseball card manufacturer as a RC with the older stuff and since the rules changed in 06 it is the players card from their rookie season unless they previously had a RC from 05 or older and in that case the rookie year card is labeled as (RC) which I personally call Second Year Rookie Cards due to a lack of a better term
Seems realistic enough to me but I get where you're coming from on that

I personally beleive his 1915 sporting news is his rc card no matter what Beckett says. He was coming close to the end of his palying days. He retired in 1935.

^ I get what you're saying Wayne but in that same instance I would have to consider a 1990 Classic as Chipper Jones RC and that isn't the case so I guess I just go with the constant
