I know we have about 143 different YSL threads floating around here, but based on the current update, felt this one was worthy of a brand new thread.
As we know, the last 2 cards were found and are now in my possession along with the rest of the set. Before I get to the reason for this new post -- huge thank you to all that contributed cards to this set -- I believe David K. & LEONOFNJ were the leaders in that regard. And a huge thank you to Meliah for being the caretaker of this set for the longest time.
We are now in the homestretch and need to put this to bed. With that said, it is official, The Bench 2008 Yankee Stadium Legacy set is going to auction. I will be delivering the cards to Robert Edwards Auctions in New Jersey on Thursday the 17th. They will be added to the catalog of their next sports auction that will take place April 2nd - April 18th.
That means we need to hype this thing by all means necessary. I will get this info added to our charity page on The V Foundation site. I have reached out to our contact at Upper Deck for their help. If anyone has a connection with the Yankees, let them know. I don't do Twitter, but if someone does, seems like a good time to use it!! Push it out via Facebook. Whatever it takes! As I get more information from the auction house, I will update this thread.
