tth2 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I was commenting to another collector that one of the interesting things about the Jon Berk auction was that the buyers seemed pretty spread out and quite a number of buyers publicized their wins, including here. In contrast, as far as I know, the buyers of a lot of the high profile sales on Heritage in the last few years (e.g., the Church Pep, Hit and Zip runs) have remained anonymous. I expect the same to be true for the Promise books. GreatCaesarsGhost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect the same to be true for the Promise books. John was/is rock star in our world. I think we were all proud to be a part of his legacy and that publicizing our wins was a badge of honor as well as a salute to one of the true ambassadors of our hobby.

In fact, i was one of the first to call out the grading generally on this collection. Although I think most have now come around, early on my opinion generated some opposition but what I don’t question is I’ll never have another shot at a high grade All Select 2.

Regardless, with so few high-grade copies available ever, you made a wise grab. Congrats and thanks for sharing. I'm still hoping to find any Promise book that slips through the cracks like this (of course, a much cheaper issue!). Not holding my breath, though.
