  • Summary

  • World records, clear bubbles, high grades and a ton of acrylic. On January 22nd, Hake’s hosted the first sale of the Jeff Jacob collection, bringing in an impressive $1.45 million. And Star Wars collectors aggressively pursued the hundreds of action figures, vehicles, playsets and memorabilia, some of which were the rarest and highest graded examples in the world. And as Auction 1035 kicks off a new year of Star Wars collector events, what do the sales tell us about the current state of the collectors market? Is $105,000 for an Obi-Wan really surprising? Which items shockingly sold for prices that were multiples of their high estimates? What effect does grade, name recognition and curation have on sales? And what do collectors need to watch out for when bidding on graded items at these larger auctions? Join host David Quinn for a look at the results and trends of January’s Hake’s auction, through the history of past auctions, previous comparable sales, and information only hardcore collectors would know! This is how a Prune Face hammers at $7800. And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!
