In the realm of sports memorabilia, few items generate as much excitement as rare and valuable baseball cards. This is especially true in the case of the PWCC December Premier Auction, where two of the most coveted cards from the T206 set, also known as the Big Four, are up for grabs. These cards have caught the attention of collectors from all corners of the globe.
One of the standout items in this auction is an SGC 1 graded T206 Eddie Plank card. Only 39 Plank cards have received a grade from SGC, with an additional 21 graded by PSA. Despite showing signs of age and wear, such as paper loss, creasing, and corner and edge damage, the value and rarity of this Plank card remain unquestionable. Its appearance at this auction is a noteworthy event, as it marks the fourth time this year that a Plank card has been made available for purchase. In previous sales, an SGC 1 Plank card sold for $75,000 in February, while a PSA 2.5 variant fetched an impressive $168,000 in August.
Accompanying the Plank card at the auction is the PSA 2 graded Sherry "Magie" error card. This card is another highly prestigious piece from the T206 set, featuring a misspelling of Sherry Magee's last name. It stands alongside the T206 Honus Wagner and "NY Nat'l" Joe Doyle cards as one of the most sought-after rarities in the entire collection.
In addition to these historic items, the auction also offers an impressive selection of Michael Jordan cards. These cards serve as a testament to the enduring legacy and popularity of the basketball legend. Some of the highlights from the Jordan collection include the 1997 Metal Universe Championship Precious Metals (#/50) graded BGS 9, the 1998 Skybox Premium Star Rookies (#/50) graded PSA 8, the 1997 Skybox E-X 2001 Essential Credentials Future (#/72) graded PSA 9, and the 1984-85 Star Company XRC cards in both PSA 8 and BGS 9 grades.
Furthermore, the auction presents modern hockey treasures for enthusiasts of the sport. Notable items include the 2015-16 Upper Deck The Cup Gold Foil Connor McDavid RPA (#/12) and the 2005 Upper Deck The Cup Sidney Crosby RPA (#/99), both graded BGS 8.
The PWCC December Premier Auction has already commenced and will continue to accept bids until December 21st. This event provides collectors with a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a piece of sports history. Whether it is the highly sought-after T206 Plank and 'Magie' error cards, the impressive Michael Jordan collection, or the modern hockey treasures, this auction offers something for fans and collectors alike.
