Sports enthusiasts and collectors alike are in for a treat with the latest auction from Weiss Auctions, where a plethora of historic sports memorabilia is set to go under the hammer. From autographed items by baseball legend Babe Ruth to a stunning array of rare cards and collectibles, the Weiss Auction catalog is a treasure trove for fans of sports history.
One of the standout items in this auction is the only PSA-registered autographed 1952 Topps Roy Campanella card, a true gem for any collector with bids approaching a jaw-dropping $40,000. For those enamored with “The Bambino,” there are various Ruth-signed collectibles up for grabs, including a 1946 minor league scorecard and a selection of personal photos and signatures. Jackie Robinson enthusiasts will be delighted to find a signed index card from 1952 among the coveted lots.
A highlight of the event is the highly sought-after 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card graded SGC 3, a must-have for any serious collector, alongside nearly complete sets from 1952 that are only missing a few key cards. The auction also boasts a complete run of Topps sets from 1956 through 1979 and a special 1986-87 Fleer Basketball set. Notably, all items come from “The Toledo Collection,” featuring cards ranging from the ’40s and ’50s, including Jackie Robinson rookies and Leaf Ruth cards.
For aficionados of pre-War cards, the auction offers a tantalizing selection of Goudey and T206 Hall of Famers, adding further depth to the already impressive lineup of collectibles. Autograph collectors will find rarities like the 1937 Los Dragones team sheet signed by legends such as Josh Gibson, Satchel Paige, and James “Cool Papa” Bell, in addition to other rare autographed items and collections.
