My second SC350 Factory 30 with Factory Stamp

Okay-okay, so it's only like 5% of a factory stamp.

Has anyone seen a full number 30 stamp though? I've seen 4 or 5 now, with none more than around 30% visible.

Trae,

Yes full ones are out there, I know of a board member that has a stellar Matty Port with a full #30 on the back. Perhaps he will share....

Cheers,

John

[T206.org]

Nice! Thanks, John - I'd love to see - hopefully he'll post it.

[vintagecpa]

It is never a bad day when you get a Matty in the mail. Thanks Cy.

[Bicem]

Great Chance!

[margoaepi]

Nice pickup Mike. I was sort of hoping the transaction would fall through so I could get the Matty!

[Touch'EmAll]

New to me. Tough in this grade. Supremely centered, ahhh.

[Touch'EmAll]

From the recent Goodwin auction. Highest ever graded.

great pickups !!!

[gabrinus]

Great pickups Cosmo on the T216s....I think that is the first Barry I have seen.

[cozmokramer]

Gabrinus,

Thanks! These have been so hard to find. They do go nicely with my others as i continue my quest to complete the set.

Now I just need to get them off to PSA or SGC... I'm still undecided which!

[greenmonster66]

Another Horizontal for my collection!

[rc4157]

Very pleased to add this postcard of Daubert to my Reds collection. The fact that it is addressed to a nearby town adds to my enjoyment.

Thanks to Tony Andrea on the BST!

[Vintagecatcher]

I'm very excited to add this trimmed T4 Obak cabinet to my collection. Special thanks to board member Mark for selling it to me. I plan on having it matted and framed.



Patrick

[T206.org]

Way cool - thanks, Jim!

Loving that no-name Waddell above too... nice card.

[Spartan]

Calvindog actually beat Don Spence out of that Exhibits Cobb ! That's an extraodinary feat in itself. I did that one time just to prove I could, and still paying for it !! :D Great card.

[triwak]

I know it's a modern tribute card, but I've been looking for this HOF'er RC for awhile now - very pleased!. At least it depicts a fantastic vintage team.

[t206hound]

Just arrived; able to get the Jones owner to split up the lot and sell it separately:

[vintagehofrookies]

another signed HOF RC added to the collection:

Trae and Jim,

NICE FACT #30!!:D great cards u you just picked up Trae:) Jim, that is one sweet fact #30 stamp...

John-WOW!! a full fact 30 stamp is out there??????


Peace

Johnny

[T206.org]

Thanks, Isaac, and Johnny :)

Isaac, they're SGC A trim jobs unfortunately, but I'm a sucker for eye appeal (and they're mighty affordable!).

[DanP]

Just came today...

[triwak]

Hey Dan, where is the "Big League Chewing Gum" on the bottom of the Goudey Vaughan? I thought all 1933's had that (except Lajoie, of course). Something I don't know about? Wouldn't be the first time!

[Robextend]

Hey Dan, where is the "Big League Chewing Gum" on the bottom of the Goudey Vaughan? I thought all 1933's had that (except Lajoie, of course). Something I don't know about? Wouldn't be the first time!

Hey Ken,

I don't think any card after #190 or so has the "Big League Chewing Gum" designation on the front of the card. There are also some prior to #190 that don't have it either such as #112 (Schulte), #142 (Richards), etc...

I am not exactly sure why, hopefully someone with more knowledge can chime in.

Rob

[deadballera]

Ken

there are a number of the 1933 Goudey cards that do not have the BIG LEAGUE CHEWING GUM banner on the bottom. See also the Richards, Berger, and others. Some great colors on those cards !

Todd

[Robextend]

Thanks to a fellow board member who has made this a great month by contacting me about this card I was so desperately after.

A few pickups this month...

[GrayGhost]

He's only a common, and a former Yankee, but I love this card. Goudey obviously didn't care much in the design, but the color and stuff makes this kinda cool IMO.

[Vintagecatcher]

Here's my presentation solution to my T4 that was trimmed to the oval.

Here are the before and after scans.

I could not justify spending the current market price for an unaltered T4 cabinet, so this is a wonderful addition and solution for my catcher collection.

[wonkaticket]

Patrick,

That looks amazing good show and great idea!

Cheers,

John,
Amazing pair of BL 460s!:eek: When you are ready to kick the habit, give me a call.
JimB
P.S. The Ruth doesn't suck either.

[Vintagecatcher]

Hi John,

Thanks. I'm really excited that it came out looking so great. I have a local framer that does a great job. It's amazing to watch their machine cut a matt.

Patrick

[jimivintage]

Here are three very different pickups! :) The Bagwell was for my "Possible Future HOF RC Collection". The Marquard for my HOF RC Collection, and the Lections for my Lections set. :)

[Jaybird]

Nice pickups, guys.

Sweet Cobb Blank Back, Jay!!

[Jaybird]

Thanks Trae.

I'm excited to own it. Love those backs! even if they don't have anything on them.

[wonkaticket]

I have not seen one either....I would make sure it is in fact a blank back and not a skinned Cobb as well. Many blank back T206's are not much more than T206's that have been skinned.

Where did the card come from just curious?

Cheers,

John

[tbob]

I owned this card, traded it off with others and always regretted losing it. After traveling through a couple of hands, it is mine again :D Now it's off to SGC for a cross-over. Thanks Dan Mc for the deal.

It's off to SGC tomorrow. Fairly certain it will grade A based on experience and other knowledgeable collector's opinions. I didn't really want to get into a "is it authentic" discussion so if it turns into that, I'll probably just pull the picture and edit my post. Thanks for the interest, though. I love this board and wanted to share my excitement!

Good stuff. Not sure you took my post right etc? But as fairly knowledgeable collector myself I was just offering up a possible pit fall to watch for and commenting on the card. Wasn't looking for a debate.

Gotcha. I mean no disrespect. I've read your posts and appreciate your contribution to the board. I also appreciate the note that some "Blank back" cards are actually skinned cards.

That stack of raw t206s made me drool. Very cool. It makes me imagine what a kid's collection looked like back in the day, stored in a cigar box.

[Tim Kindler]

Thanks Josh (JK) for this beautiful Evers. Love the rich orange color on this one.

Oh, Scott R., nothing wrong with being a low budgett collector. We all collect what we love mixed with what we can afford. I think that Cracker Jack is a sweet card with really vibrant colors. Congratulations on it!

I understand completely, Tim. It's just after seeing an Ed Delehanty, Ty Cobbs, Christy Mathewsons, etc....I just had to throw that out there. I do enjoy collecting my [pre war] vintage Boston Red Sox, even though my pickups may not be as extravagant as others. :)

Appreciate the comment though. The Cracker Jack is a beaut in person, the red background really pops! Great E98 Evers as well, that set is very neat with the black and white photos on the colored backgrounds.

[Leon]

Great stuff so far guys. It's not about the budget it's about enjoying what you are doing.

Scott R- On that Cracker Jack...that is a neat pose. Many of us collect catcher poses as their gear is really neat looking. I have types of several series' cards in my collection where the pose is of a catcher. This one didn't have any catchers. Thanks to a fellow board member for it.

[ksfarmboy]

Nice pick up Leon. Is that paper thin or more like a card?

[sox1903wschamp]

Hey Scott R- I like that Crackerjack Cady. Nice pickup!

[Vintagecatcher]

This 1900 Carl Lewis T212-1 Obak arrived safe and sound yesterday morning after a rough trip from Texas. One edge of the card was trapped under the SGC black insert. Luckily, I always crack out the cards, and put them in a nice screwdown holder.

Thanks again Leon and Scott (B & L Auctions)

Patrick

[53Browns]

Thanks to Cy at Cy's Cards!

[Leon]

Nice Leon, I'm sure it was tough for him to part with that.

Thanks for the kudos on the E221. I am sure the seller did have some postpartum sadness, Jeff, but the check he will be getting should help with that somewhat. Yes, it's my 3rd and I am very happy to add it to my collection. They don't come around every day.

I was pleasantly surprised with the variety at the show, as modern cards do tend to dominate. For the first time in a while, the material available was
close to 50/50. The dealer I purchased from had a large selection of raw and graded issues, including T206, T205, E90-1, E101, and R319. They had some 19th century items too, but I didn't make it to that end of their table.

That card is gorgeous Trae. That's the finest Kawika I've ever seen.

[T206.org]

Thanks, Doc - same here!
Haha @ the Kawika reference - gotta love his avatar, huh?

Pack fresh front, but I guess it sat in the pack for a while because the Old Mill reverse has some faint paper loss lines from the packaging... so it's only a 40/3. Fine by me!

[53Browns]

Awesome Goudey Dimaggio Dan. It's on my want list!

[teetwoohsix]

Very nice Trae !! You've been picking up some nice ones lately :) Also liked Jaybird's pick ups also- love T206's :D

This one just arrived from RayBShotz on the B/S/T- he was great to deal with, a smooth transaction. My scanner sucks, and never does the cards justice.....but this one is very nice for the grade.

[gfgcom]

I recently had a very nice find of t213-II Coupon Tobacco cards.
The seller, who was from Metaire, LA., also had some Cracker Jacks a General Baking and This Ty Cobb with a Tango Egg back.

The card had previously been rumored to exist, but apparently had never been seen, at least not by the masses.

I have already sold the card, and I believe it is now in a SGC 10 Holder.
Condition wise, truly a card only a mother could love, but what a rarity!!

Here it is: Ty Cobb Tango Egg Back!

Thank you Chris at Cassidy's Sportscards for the great deal!

[Tim Kindler]

Thanks to B& L for the latest addition in my E98 set, but no offense Leon and Scott, but my best pick up of the year so far was the card my 6 year old son Tyrus created for me. It is a vintage 2011 Postcard size, unused! And I bet it would grade at least a 20!:D

[53Browns]

Nice 67 Topps Brooks Robby Bill! Those are tough!

I'm very excited to add this E253 Oxford to my collection!!
Whoo Hoo!
I'm getting what I consider a nice low-grade HOF run going here :

Whaddya think?

[Vintagecatcher]

Picked up a 1912 John H. "Dad" Rohrer Zeenut on eBay earlier tonight.

With this pick-up, I only need to upgrade a 1912 Walter Boles Zeenut, and then a 1912 Claude Berry Zeenut to complete my run of catcher pose cards in the 1912 Zeenut set.

[ls7plus]

Great cards, guys--motivation to keep the flame burning! Especially liked Jeff's 1926-1929 Exhibits Cobb and 1916 Mordecai (Three-Finger) Brown, and David B's 1923-1924 Exhibits Genewich (tough cards, those '23-'24's. Maybe someday I'll bump into the Ruth, at a time when I can afford it).

I was wondering, Jeff, if your collecting focus is the same as mine: stars and hall-of-famers, in the best condition you can find or afford? I would assume the yellow-toned Cobb is pretty tough to find.

With best regards,

Larry

Went through your SGC Card Registry. That is a great assembly of cards. Much luck with your continued pursuit.
I'll keep watching.

Frank...
I was trying to be ethical at all times, but the latest group you just posted made me want to commit larceny.
Ok, maybe not that extreme measure , but any of those would be outstanding collector-grade cards for my man-cave.
If you need to send them to me, I will need to send money to you...that keeps me ethical,you see.:D

NICE cards!

This is the scarce Maranville rookie card from the 1912 Boston Daily American postcard series. There are only five known player postcards in the set. Thanks to fellow board member Dan Studebaker for this scarce postcard type.

Cheers, Mike

4 down, 2 to go on the Wagners in the E94 set. Thanks Spencer for making the deal.

Robert,

Nice pickup! I was watching that one and wondered if you were bidding on it or the other Houston T210 which ended at the same time. Nice bright orange borders!

[Mikehealer]

Congrats on the Blank back Cobb. I bet your inbox will be flooded
with offers on that one.

[Jaybird]

Thanks Mike,

I'm super excited to have it back in my hands. It's a long trip from Parsippany to LA!

Very, very nice eye appeal on all of them, Larry. You've obviously got more than a bit of the connoiseur in you!

Jeff, you're going to have drooling all over the keyboard on that Cobb, and Jimi, nice W573--you don't see too many of those!

Best wishes in your collecting!

Picked these up yesterday (3) M101-5s and met up w/fellow collector and N54er Greg. Great conversation, Thanks again Greg!!

[peterb69]

My first Obak, Monte Pfyl. After seeing so many pictured here on this forum, I decided to get one and see what they were about. I think I picked a nice looking Obak and a player with a curious history. Monte Pfyl had just 1 sip from his cup of coffee as a Major Leaguer. He made his 1 and only plate appearance on July 30th, 1907 with the NY Giants and got a sac bunt. That was all his Major League playing time. I can imagine Old John McGraw yelling down to the other end of the bench, "Hey kid, go get your bat." Then telling him to lay one down.

By the way, these Obaks are pretty neat cards.

[Robextend]

I love looking at all of your vintage cards guys and enjoy reading about rare cards I've never seen before. I may not be on your level, but I did just pick up a '33 Goudey Gehrig #92 SGC 60 (5). Nice centering.

This was the raw Demmitt (St. Louis) from the Chicago Sun Times show last weekend. Took it straight over to SGC. Nice for the grade, no creases, clean - I'm very happy with it! O'Hara left to go to be "Complete minus Big 4" (instead of "Big 5")

[DanP]

New pickups. I've finally realized that I may never get Griffith's real RC, so his T206 will have to do for now.

Also, finally found a Doby Leaf!

Welcome to the board, Pete. Great looking Gehrig too. You just can't go wrong with that card. Very classic. Thanks for joining in the reindeer games too. As for being on anyone's level, to me, we are all "collectors".

[WillowGrove]

It's nice to own a Hugh Duffy other than my t206.

Pete, nice OJ. Is it the scan or is that card black & white instead of sepia? If b&w, I've never seen one before.
Also interesting is that Greenwood is a lefthanded second baseman.
