  • Huggins and Scott
    To My Fellow Hobbyists, Welcome to our fifth and final auction of 2010. This auction features the spectacular personal collection of veteran hobbyist Steve Wolfe of King George, Virginia. The high-grade 1952 Topps set as well as early Bowman and Goudey sets are featured along with an extensive array of other high-grade cards and unique memorabilia. We thank Steve for his trust in us, and I'm sure many of you will enjoy owning some of these treasures as Steve did. In our constant efforts to improve our auctions to meet your requests, we have made a noteworthy change for this and all future auctions. We will require initial bids to be submitted by 10:00 PM east coast time rather than 9:00 PM. A little love for our "left coast" people! With our auction ending just before the King Of Prussia/Philadelphia, PA show, we are tentatively planning to have a truck to deliver winning items on Saturday December 4th if we get enough interest. Contact Stefan to arrange this. With all that said, once again our dedicated team has outdone itself in assembling this fantastic array of rare, unusual and even one-of-a-kind items. Dave Stoddard has added even more new features to keep our site simple and user friendly while incorporating new and useful ideas. Our head writer Kevin Heffner and his staff of James Feagin and Mark Raines have worked tirelessly to get these lots written. Former writer turned photographer Matt Flores and our "man of many hats" Stefan Wisinski have captured all the images.
