TO MY FELLOW HOBBYISTS, With our first auction of the year now behind us, we embark on Round 2 for 2009. In honor of the 100th anniversary of the set, our current auction features a completely SGC graded base set missing only the “Big 4.” The Plank and Magie are offered as well. Our much-discussed innovation of a “tiered buyer's premium” was met with mostly positive comments, so we are sticking with it. It really does put more money in the consignors' pocket for high-end items and saves money for bidders as well. We, as always, welcome your feedback, which keeps us focused and committed to bringing you the best auction in all facets.

Our team at Huggins and Scott has once again assembled a fantastic array of rare, unusual and one-of-a-kind items for this sale. Dave Stoddard continues to outdo himself, adding new features that keep our site simple and user friendly. Our head writer Kevin Heffner has added yet another writer to his staff, Randy (Country) Curtis, who joins Mark Raines, James Feagin, and Matt Flores as the pen and ink, while Collin Corbin and his staff have again treated us to some stunning images. Mark Spinrad and Jamey Austin have swept the catalog for #@%#”s, while Josh Wulkan and Stefan Wisinski have given Mike and Sally Henry the “canvas and paint” they need for them to create another masterpiece.

Kris Fraley did another amazing job, sending out almost 1400 lots in a safe and timely manner. Great job, Kris!! Barry Malkin's eagle eyes have once again spotted some high-grade gems!!

Our constantly growing nationwide staff of consignor reps (now at 35 strong), led by the tireless Steve Dickler, have gathered another fine assortment of “goodies.” Should you have items or an entire collection you are thinking about selling, a full list of our well-quali- fied reps, along with their contact info, is available in this catalog. Call them. You'll be surprised how much money we can get for you and how fast!!!

The ladies of Huggins and Scott Auctions: Nancy, Janet, Stef, Kristie, Brooke, Greta, Gail and Allison always get their own “Paragraph of Thanks” for putting up with our late hours and countless phone calls.

Our final and foremost thanks always goes out to our consignors and bidders. From A to Z in both categories you continue to amaze us with the material you turn up and the integrity with which you conduct yourselves in all aspects of our dealings. The friendships we have made out of the trust you have placed in us are immeasurable, and for that we are always grateful.

I hope you enjoy our latest catalog, and feel free to call us anytime with questions, comments or suggestions.

Good Luck

2. 1909 T206 SGC Authentic Though the industry is relatively young, there is no shortage of expertise that has covered every angle of the hobby. Through exhaustive research, or the “THE MONSTER” passage of time, most mysteries surrounding sets or singles have been unveiled. Eluding the experts is the 1909 T206 Eddie Plank. Absent from most advanced collections, pur- portedly less than 100 examples exist. In conceding the majority of such specimens are professionally graded, services PSA and SGC have judged a combined 59 copies. Was a 1. 1909-1911 T206 printing plate broken early in production? Did Plank object to the use of his image on White Border SGC tobacco products, knowing children would seek to obtain these cards?

Though Opening Bid $5000.00 the half-page advertisements did not mention the other brands associated with the consortium, the “150 Series” became a runaway success on both the national and regional levels (“The Encyclopedia of , Volume 3—20th Century Tobacco Cards”, 1986, Lipset). From the research of Scott Reader, an article from the August 9, 1909 edition of the Charlotte Observer notes, “Since the begin- ning of summer, when the commenced put- ting the pictures in their packages of cigarettes, the small boy has been more or less of a nuisance by stop- ping young and old men as they walked along the street begging for “baseball men.” Although tobacco cards had been collected for decades, the ardor of what was to be designat- ed as T206 helped root the baseball card collecting hobby. Securing examples from this famed set is con- sidered a rite of passage; as holding a tangible piece of baseball history often leads to a lifelong pursuit of “The Monster.” In commemoration of the one hundredth year since its 3. 1909 T206 Sherry Magie (Magee) SGC 10 release, offered is a 1909-1911 T206 As one of the “Big Four” rarities of the 1909-1911 T206 White Border series, the White Border near set of (520/524) offered Sherry Magie (Magee) error will assuredly garner much interest from tobac- cards that is missing only the “Big co card enthusiasts.
