I ran across this super cool signed 1933 Goudey Mel Ott card in Mastro's March 2006 Classic Collector Auction catalog. Why so cool? It was part of Frank Nagy's collection!

Here's an awesome advertisement, scanned from a June 2005 auction catalog for B.F. Goodrich P-F Canvas Shoes featuing a slew of MLB legends.

How's this for rare and historically significant: a Pete Rose and Bart Giamatti signed 1983 All-Star Game First-Day Cover?!

Here's an incredible advertising contract featuring the full-name signature of "George H Babe Ruth."

You'd think wrappers from the 1930's would be super scarce and super pricey. You got the pricey part right, but they're more common than you'd think; Mastro offered this lot of 11 together in July 1998.

REA, then a division of MastroNetInc., offered this massive find of 768 1952-55 Red Man Tobacco cards (760 with tabs) in their July 2000 Baseball Cards and Memorabilia auction.

If you read modern hobby guides about the 1976 Laughlin Diamond Jubilee set, most will say that the cards were available from the artist for $3.50. Well, here's an ad from the March 1977 issue of The Trader Speaks proving it!

I always feel bad for vintage hockey unopened collectors; finding these items is tougher than tracking down a unicorn. Here's one of them, a 1961/62 Topps Five-Cent Display Box.
