Grey Flannel Auctions would like to take this opportunity to personally thank some people who have helped in putting together this great auction. It contains more lots and perhaps the finest material that we have had in any one auction in a number of years. This is a testament to all of our consignors, who have all made fantastic contributions despite a timeline that is a month earlier than normally scheduled. In response to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame’s decision to move up their induction weekend by a month to August, we changed our May Auction to April. Our next auction will be our annual live auction, held on August 13, 2010 during the Basketball Hall of Fame’s weeklong induction festivities.

When Notre Dame and Green Bay Packer gridiron great Paul Hornung’s circa 1954-1955 Fighting Irish football jersey comes up for auction on April 23 as part of Heritage Auction Galleries’ Signature® Sports Memorabilia Auction, it will represent the culmination of collector John Shaw’s simple hunch that turned into one of the football finds of a lifetime, one that is estimated to bring between $30,000-$50,000. “The thought of a long shot is exactly what collectors all over use to motivate themselves,” said Chris Ivy, Director of Heritage Sports Collectibles, “just like John Shaw did when he took a detour during a cross-country trip to an old Kentucky sports bar he frequented during his days working as a racing stable employee at the famed Churchill Downs racetrack.”

Last night Legendary Auctions concluded the bidding on the amazing group of JFK letters -”Love, Jack” – Senator John F. Kennedy’s Complete Correspondence with his Swedish Lover, Gunilla von Post – which sold for a record $115,537. In this explosive collection of handwritten love letters — never before seen in their entirety since they were penned more than a half-century ago—a new facet of Jack Kennedy is revealed. It is a tender side, heartfelt and sincere, hopelessly romantic, naïve even, while his bright star was still on the rise and before universal fame came to dim and pollute, turning him callous and insatiable in his lust for conquests. The other highlight of the auction was the sale of a 1909-11 T206 White Border Honus Wagner – Restored, PSA Authentic/Altered which closed at $219,225. Check out all the results from Legendary Auction Here.
