Thanks Joe

[Runscott]

Tony,

Those are great. I especially like the top one. I have been collecting RPPC's for use in a documentary - probably have enough, but just can't resist a great photo. Now I'm finally finding out who the guys are who have been beating me to death on these :) (and vice versa).

Scott great rppc. I picked up a couple myself.

Chris! Big Pick Up Congrats!

BL 460 is real tough.... and a HOFer BL460 to boot!!. Great card.

Jamie

[markf31]

I'm pretty new to the vintage scene, I've only collected a handful of vintage items so far and I'm happy to say this is my first major acquisition!

http://i1119.photobucket.com/albums/k638/markf31/Matty.jpg

[g_vezina_c55]

Nice t205

[Runscott]

Hey Mark - FYI, you can also reach me via PM here, or from my website. Much easier than ebay.

Welcome to vintage card collecting!

[markf31]

Thanks Scott, and I will keep that in mind for the future!

[Iwantmorecards77]

Thanks to board member Joey!

Tip Top

[Runscott]

Another RPPC. I paid a lot for this one, but the back has notes indicating that the scribe was affiliated with the team. It's only the second Bloomers action shot I've been able to pick up, so very pleased:

http://www.minnesooota.com/4-Apr-12-Bloomer-2.jpg

[tbob]

A couple of upgrades and a variation card of Smith. The Ryan SF is one of the toughest in the set and to get it in a 60 makes me smile :D

[tbob]

A recent pickup back from grading.

Steve- I think we knew it was lightly trimmed on the bottom but congratulations on a gorgeous and very tough card. It looks great!
tbob

[soxinseven]

Thanks tbob...I knew it was trimmed but still a very presentable card...it looks great in the SGC holder.

[Chris D.]

The Wheat and Duffy are from the Sterling auction, and the Beckley and Clarke are from the BST - thanks, Nate!

[Chris D.]

That Wheat is a great card...way better than a 20

Yeah, the date stamp really brought it down, but I think it's pretty cool.

[Chris D.]

Great cards Chris, no we just need to convince you to get a new scanner!

Pm me if you need any scanner suggestions!

Thanks! That's what I was thinking. I was comparing my scans to everyone else's. Maybe I need to adjust some settings.

[ullmandds]

Thanks to Chris B...I love this one...and it will be in my collection until I die...or become terminally ill and need the $$$$ for morphine!!!!!

[tjlives]

Absolutely love that Wheat card, was one of the underbidders on it actually. I wish more "20s" looked like that!

[g_vezina_c55]

My first may pick up and my first southern league player

[zljones]

zach...thanks! there are a few ewings on fleabay right now...they don't come cheap!!!!!!

Yup I just dropped some major buck on the N29 Ewing this week, so I am chillin for awhile. I keep seeing that N43 Ewing on ebay for $6,000, a little rediculous of a price in my opinion.

[HBroll]

1929 Kashin Babe Ruth (R316)

[Runscott]

Scott, Tony, Rich,
Those postcards are too cool!
JimB

Thanks Jim. Add Leon to the group of collectors - if any two of us dropped out, the ebay prices would probably drop by 2/3

[Runscott]

Cy arrived today - Thanks to Sterling for a well-run auction, quick shipping, great packing and reasonable s&h:

John, so are you trying to tell us that you have a 'Griffith batting' available for trade?

Nice little pick-up

[wonkaticket]

LOL I guess it would help if the first picture was there...

[Runscott]

LOL I guess it would help if the first picture was there...

It's a shame Heritage didn't do a nice T206 book like Legendary and Goodwin did - would have been a nice coffee table addition for you.

[oldjudge]

John-Great images on those Old Judges. Are you starting to work on the set?

[wonkaticket]

Jay, not that crazy yet. Besides you have them all anyways. :)

I'm picking up nice examples where I can my plan is to get 50-100 that have really good images. But as you know they are just tough to find with good images.

Cheers,

I'm excited to show off one of my few purchases the last five months. Now that it is part of my collection, I have been think about this card on the ride to work, ride from work and during most meetings. :).

Reviewed the older threads on this trade card - my goal is to find out when and who took this photo and when it began to be distributed. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think those questions have yet to answered?

Have a great May guys. happy Collecting.

Gotta love it when a seller requires immediate payment on a Buy It Now and then waits a full week to mail the card (and only mails it out then in response to an email asking if he's mailed it out yet). One of the two toughies of 1911 Obak set out of the way. Ten Million, where art thou?

Some great cards this month. Loving the Tolstoi lot, how close are you on the subset?

Thanks!! I am at 112 which is a bit less than half the confirmed number. I guess the beauty in all of this is finding out which subjects are tougher to find with this particular back...I am enjoying the ride so far!

Nice looking T210s Jason. I'll be glad when all you team collectors finish your T210s so those of us nutty enough to go after the whole set won't have so much competition :o

I dont post often what I get, but after 3yrs+ of searching for this AB backed Mattern I finally got it. An SGC 70/5.5 to boot. I am just thrilled and I think it went very cheap for an AB back.

Jason, great pickups! Love that Cobb Tolstoi!!

The Hounds have obtained John Frill from AndyG09 for a player to be named later:

Jason, great pickups! Love that Cobb Tolstoi!!

Thanks Rob. I love the Cobb too, even if it's missing a corner.

[Mikehealer]

Tony- Here is an Evers with the same grade as yours that looks about the same.
Also picked up an Evers Ramly upgrade.

[3-2-count]

Great cards Mike. Your Evers collection continues to grow with quality. One last one just in today.

Sheesh, just what I need, another tough set to collect. This is my 5th card in the set, long way to go...

[Howe’s Hunter]

Nice signature and the Burdick stamps. Sweet combination. Congratulations.

[g_vezina_c55]

Nice pick up !

i always think all the burdick's cards where in a museum and not avalaible for sale.

[tbob]

A nice trade with Brian W. Glad we could help each other out :D

[z28jd]

With the help of saved emails from back in the day on my aol account, I can confirm that today I checked off a card that has been on top of my wantlist since at least July of 2002.

Congrats John, that's a long time on a want list. You Must have felt a sigh of relief.

[z28jd]

Congrats John, that's a long time on a want list. You Must have felt a sigh of relief.

Thanks Leon. It is cool to finally knock that card off the list and it served as a reminder to not put rare Old Judge cards on my wantlist, just get whichever ones you can when they come up. You don't know how many times I've seen Alcott come up for sale over that time, just to find out it wasn't the Mansfield version. It's also in much nicer shape than what I thought I was going to end up with, figuring I'd just overspend for the next one I saw no matter what the condition.

[Jason]

Nice cards Tbob.I really like the swinging poses.

Here are a few Saturday morning pickups of mine

[Joe_G.]

Congrats John!

Alcott with Mansfield reminds me of another tough team change card I've been waiting for, Gilligan with Detroit. Enjoy your latest addition, unite him with Nyce - Burlington.

[z28jd]

Good luck finding yours Joe! I've had the Burlington card for years, as well as New Haven and Rochester, all one player teams in the set. Maybe I'll get a scan of all four together later...decided to do it now instead. Also have Holbert too as a one player team but he wasn't on my wantlist until we started writing the book and I actually bought it the day we found out Mets were a one player team

[Iwantmorecards77]

Nice little card:

[Howe’s Hunter]

that I got a second card with Howe McCormick's stamp on the back. Within weeks, I had decided to sell all my other t206s and concentrate on only trying to rebuild his collection that he had marked. Today, number 205 in the rebuilt collection arrived in my mailbox.

<a href="http://s150.photobucket.com/albums/s81/T206ster/?action=view&amp;current=205Lake.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s81/T206ster/205Lake.jpg" border="0" alt="205 Lake"></a>

I never imagined that I would find so many, or own that many of them. Thanks to so many on the board who keep their sights set on them, and let me know when they are available.

[deadballera]

interesting back on this Bender....some color bleed through.

[MacDice]

Arrived today via a trade with a fellow board member. The ironic thing is today would have been Earl’s 110th Birthday.

[t206hound]

Thanks to AG for the trade... able to complete the "player to be named later" trade and pick up a few more for myself.

[Jaybird]

Nice pickups. Player to be named later. Interesting.

Hopefully this is not a Rumplestiltskin situation.

Andy and I have bought/sold/traded several times and he had a dupe that I needed so he sent it to me in advance of me having anything to return to him. I was able to "close the books" on the deal and live happily ever after...

Glad it's what you wanted! Sorry shipping was a few extra days, hopefully it was worth the wait.

[nolemmings]

Battered and not really a card, I picked up this Facts for Fans as ephemera for my m101s. The inset on the bottom is from page 1 of the nearly 100 page booklet.
For the m101 collectors here, note that the caption design is wrong and that the photo shown of Scott is not the high leg-kick picture actually used in the set. Interestingly, the card number is wrong too--it corresponds to Scott's m101-5 card, but Indy Brewing is a m101-4 set only. http://photos.imageevent.com/imoverhere/mym101s/backsindianapolisbrewing/large/factsforfans.jpg

And I won't be satisfied until I get at least 115 more!

[Jason]

Two more Series 2.Finally getting close to wrapping that one up.

[Cooper1927]

Not Pre-War, but I have been looking for a nice low grade example of Mr. Ford's Rookie card for a long while.

John, wow

[Howe’s Hunter]

Seeing your scans now and in the past, I've tried to figure out:

Is he going for a Hindu backed set?

Is he going for the highest grade of card overall?

Is it Carolina Brights he most admires?


Most often, I just come to the conclusion "Damn, those are nice cards." Is there a specific goal, other than the envy of everyone else on the board?

Oh, nice cards.

[t206blogcom]

John - Very nice cards! I want your Helm and Paige. :D

I just picked up a shot of Jim Beam 'Devils Cut', along with a pint of Maritime 'Nightwatch', then another. These are my May pick-ups and I'm nowhere near done. David (Cycleback) gave me two packs of Topps Heritage and I got a Montero rookie and a Pope card (just to keep this post baseball card related).

Yeah, I know - just another guy bragging about all the cool expensive stuff he has acquired, but I gave the pope card to my son and the rest of it is now being processed by my liver.

When it I first saw this card I was struck by how much he looks like Nelson Van ALden of HBO's Boardwalk Empire. Obviously I have a lot of time on my hands;)

I love that show and the way it uses historical sports figures like Dempsey, and Rothstien. I would love to see Cobb depicted in it as he seems like such a natural fit for the show.
