Memory Lane Inc. has several key cards up for grabs in its upcoming Winter Extravaganza Rarities Auction that opens on Nov. 21.

Among the items up for grabs is a T206 Piedmont Sherry Magie error card graded SGC 40, a PSA 5 W600 Sporting Life Eddie Plank, a PSA 9 M116 Sport Life Walter Johnson, a PSA 8 1915 Cracker Jack Honus Wagner, a PSA 8 1933 Goudey Babe Ruth and a PSA 8 1934 Goudey Jimmie Foxx.

If that’s not modern or pricey enough for you, how about a run of PSA 8 Mickey Mantle cards from 1951 to 1969? (I heard your jaw dropping, all the way from here.)

The last Memory Lane auction recorded more than $2.75 million in sales.
