Auction Watch: Huggins and Scott Aug. Online Auction
Huggins and Scott posted the lots for their August online auction. Below are a few highlights from the list of Phillies-themed items up for bid:
Kevin Millwood No-Hitter Game Used Ball (Autographed) #472
Auction Description: This OML Selig baseball was used during that performance and subsequently autographed by it "No-No" author. The sphere features a Veterans Stadium "final season" logo and shows game use in the form of light dirt.
Opening Bid: $100 (bidding starts 7/30/12)
Link to listing: Millwood signed no-hitter ball
Comments: Personal connection with items in my collection is really important. As one of the crowd on that Sunday afternoon I have several items commemorating Millwood's no-hitter and this would be a good piece to add. $100 seems a little steep for a starting bid though.
Update:
Total # of bids - 3
Final bid amount - $130
Comments - I thought starting at $100 was high and definitely would not have gone $130 - but, it is a nice piece if you have a no-hitter collection.

Figurine/Bobble Head Lot #1040
Auction Description: The "City of Brotherly Love" is the basis for this group of (5) Philadelphia Phillies figurines featuring (2) signed Ashburn pieces and (3) bobbing head dolls.
Opening Bid: $150 (bidding starts 7/30/12)
Link to listing: Lot of figurines
Comments: Though I have many in my collection, I'm not a huge bobble-head guy. The two with round, green bases are from '62-'64. Two versions of players were created during this time, one with the crooked cap, another with the flat cap - this lot has one of each. The third was from the last production run of original Japanese bobbles, circa '65-'72.
My real interest is in the white uniform variant of the Richie Ashburn signed Prosport Creations figurine. I have never seen this before - if you know anything about it, let me know!
Update:
Total # of bids - 8
Final bid amount - $250
Comments - I knew this would be a big hitter! Still trying to find out something about the white uniform Ashburn figurine. Great lot.
