As you see, it sold for over $2k. It went sailing right by me at about $800 as my snipe did not even get into the bidding. That's a lot more than a Steunenberg gate postcard and I thought those were getting pricey!
So who out there was the lucky winner?

To the right is my Walter Johnson card. Must be worth at least 1 cent.
From eBay: 1909 T204 Ramly Walter Johnson ROOKIE PSA 3 VG (PWCC). Among the Most Important Pre-War Issues in the Hobby.

I wish I was the lucky winner! Even if we pooled our money we wouldn't have reached that selling price.
Instead, I've set my sights much lower on a "Schoolboy" Rowe card from the 30s.
So is there a Rowe connection?
Not that I am aware of, but with that nickname I can't help but find the guy intriguing. Missed the '44 & '45 seasons to the war. Was a Navy guy, if I remember correctly. Those guys who lost seasons to the war and inevitably hurt their career stats are very impressive to me.
Thanks for the comments Tara...or I guess from now on it should be "Schoolgirl" Rowe.
Ha! Just doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? I knew I should have been a pitcher!
