O/T ....well, sort of - "I need it" thread

[Leon]

Since I don't post too many off topics I thought it would be fun, on a light board day, to have a front page thread of what we are looking for, to add to our collections. I know we have the BST pages and this is generally strictly prohibited but.......We are a family and maybe someone that doesn't normally find something will be able to....Just post a few needs if you would like to...I will start off :).

Any 1920 Zeenut with coupon to complete my Z w/coupon run.
I need 4 different 1916 W-Unc Big Heads to complete the set.
I need about 15 type 1 Contentneas to complete that set.
Too many D303's to count....have about 15 of each set, General and Mothers.

Thanks much and hope someone finds something they need....(this thread shouldn't be used to sell cards, it is for finding stuff for our collections....and of course you can buy or trade to get them)

[buymycards]

I have been picking up loose change from the sidewalk and saving aluminum cans so I can purchase a low grade Demmitt or O'hara St Louis T206.

Seems like I always get sidetracked. I've got my eye on the Cobb Felt on Leon's website. Maybe someone else will buy it so I can keep my focus on the St Louis cards.

Rick

[Jason Carota]

Good idea for a thread. As for my list, what don't I need? :)

I may not be able to purchase any of my needs immediately with the holidays coming. It would be great if I could generate an inventory of what is available, however. Lower grade (p/f/g) cards are fine with me.


PC742-1 Jake Stahl (my #1 need - this would make a nice gift for myself :))
E103 Harry Lord
E96 Frank Arellanes
E220 (any Red Sox example)

I have a big list, but tops right now are:

E94 Cicotte (any color), PSA or SGC (looking for VG, but a real nice G could do)
T207 Joe Wood, PSA or SGC in G to VG
T204 Ramly Red Sox commons (except Donahue), prefer PSA
T205 Heinie Wagner and Clyde Engle, PSA or SGC in VG to EX
E107 Red Sox player...anyone...prefer SGC
E90-1 Tris Speaker, prefer SGC in G to VG

And for my E92 Dockman set, numerous cards still needed, looking for PSA in 2 to 4 grades.

That would do for now!!! :D

[packs]

I've been looking for a W600 in GD (2) condition. I had one with a stain on it that I sold a while ago. Would really love to find a better conditioned one.

Also have been wanting a D304 in GD to VG for a while now. They don't come up for sale very often.

Ultimate want is an E90-1 Speaker, T3 Addie Joss, T206 Uzit without back damage, and M101 rare backs.
