FRESNO, Calif. - AP) - A California antiques dealer has hit a home run with the sale of a rare Cincinnati baseball card she thought was worth only $10. Bernice Gallego ended up selling the 1869 Cincinnati Red Stockings team card on an online auction site for more than $64,000 yesterday. The price is more than double the previous record set for an identical card. The Cincinnati Red Stockings were the first professional team in the U.S. Gallego didn't know what she had when she originally listed the card on eBay for $10. After numerous e-mails asking if it was real, she pulled the card. Only a handful of them exist. The buyer was Jeff Rosenberg, president of a Houston company that promotes sports memorabilia shows.
