I'm pretty much in spot on agreement with this, with one minor correction. All that really matters is what *two* well-heeled bidders think. There were some interesting non-sales at Heritage, including some UniHo (which seemed to suffer from too high reserves and "usual suspect" buyers who might have other things on their minds). More surprising was the complete collapse of Shemp era Stooges material (another example of a couple of buyers jinxing the market?), poor Jeen Hahlow, and '20s/'30s comedians. Even a lot of Bogies unsold. Seems like the economy and too optimistic reserves took their toll. On the upside, these are finally coming back to where us mortals can grab a piece or two before they rebound when things turn around (hopefully). --Peter
