SCP Auctions principals David Kohler, Clay Hill, Allen Miller and Calvin Arnold have more than 100 years of combined industry experience, and dealing in vintage sports cards and memorabilia isn’t just their jobs – it’s their passion. SCP Auctions has the knowledge for every collector, whether your interest is in 19th century material, high grade PSA/SGC cards, game-used pieces or single cards and sets. SCP Auctions, the only sports memorabilia company to have partnered with storied auction house Sotheby’s, is constantly striving to uncover incredible collections and offer the most interesting, valuable and unique collectibles possible. The private collections of Honus Wagner, Casey Stengel, Pee Wee Reese, Wilt Chamberlain, Bob Cousy and George Mikan are just a few of the one-of-a kind offerings that the company has presented collectors. SCP Auctions is happy to offer suggestions and guidance on how to get the most out of any collector’s budget. SCP Auctions prides itself on customer service and speedy response to any issue or inquiry, and calls many of the nation’s top collectors its clients and, more important, friends. SCP Auctions has aided collectors in their own collection sales, including the historic Bill Nowlin bat collection, featuring game-used bats from Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Ted Williams and Lou Gehrig; the Mitsuhiko Fujita collection spanning the 1928, ’31, and ’34 major league all-star tours to Japan; the Kirk Harris T206 tobacco card collection; and the esteemed collection of Dr. Douglas Triplett’s “regionals” and test-issue single cards. We know we wouldn’t be able to succeed without your active participation, and we value our relationships with collectors and consignors alike.
