.......R-314's : Flea Clifton , type 2 ( no "Litho In USA" ) from 1936 and a Type 3 (Borderless ) from 1935 or 1936.....sometimes the PSA specs people get it right and sometimes they're in a hurry to go home ......

Macon Peaches.... large, heavy cardboard, 7" x 11"

Cool photo. The two guys on each end don't look like they're old enough to shave, let alone smoke a pipe. Looks like "Little Willie" is puffing on one too.

Excuse the # of uploads. As I mentioned in another post, I absolutely love the T202's combination of portrait art and real-life action shots. The Delong's have great colors for the era and I wanted a card of Chick that showed off his sexy glasses. I'm not in love with any of Joe Cronin's or Lloyd Waner's cards so I went with ones that have solid portraits and were cheap. I plan on eventually getting Paul Waner's same Goudey Wide Pen and putting them next to each other in my display.

Thanks for looking and let's see everyone else's adds!

My first miscut T206. Eddie Phelps, St. Louis Nat'l. If you look on the right you can see the red from the next card. Unfortunately there aren't any printers marker or the beginning of the other card on the front.

Jantz,

With my e98 set down to only 6 cards (and with any luck, down to 5 this week), I'm looking at the Monster as my next project. (At least a project I will take more seriously than others). :)

Love the William Paterson cards, Brian. I'm glad that you posted the Pennock, it proves what I have believed for a long time (and I believe that I am not alone) that they could not have been issued in 1922 or at least not 1922 only as Pennock did not join the Yankees until 1923 as per Baseball-Reference.com:

January 30, 1923: Traded by the Boston Red Sox to the New York Yankees for Norm McMillan, George Murray, Camp Skinner and $50,000.

In the "it doesn't have to be a baseball card to be cool" category comes this very large (11" x 5") and colorful die cut that I picked up from Lew Lipset's great sale page on his website. Note the "Base Ball Match This Afternoon / Polo Grounds / New York vs. Cleveland" mock advertising. The condition is extraordinary for a piece so delicate.

SGC did the same thing to me! That card is really sharp. I'm sorry, I see worse cards, with much worse stains, and I wonder how some of mine are only 30s. Still, SGC is still the most consistent IMO.

Robextend

01-05-2013, 04:05 PM

I agree, the grade doesn't do the card any justice, but technically SGC got it right.

Yeah... That's my biggest problem with them. Their grading doesn't match their standard. They are much tougher than what's published. I can only assume that this helps when they 'miss' something. I know my last submission had lots of 30-35 that look better than half of my 40s.

+1. I totally agree Erick. The really strange thing is, I've seen at least 3 SGC 50's, with Polar Bear backs and the whole card has been stained up. Now I know that was normal and expected to happen because Polar Bear was scrap Tobacco, but to make an exception for that is not completely fair.

Hi Jason - Yes, as of right now there are only 20 known player names available in Orange and there probably won't be a 21st since there have been multiples found of each of the 20. The known quantity of the Orange borders ranges from 3-9 of each player. There are bound to be a few more stuck in collections, but also the known quantity may have a few duplicates do to sales/trading. (Brian and I have been tracking these for a about 5 years or so...) --- You should search T210 Orange Borders on the board as there is quite a bit of information in some posts about them including pictures,etc.

Well, my pre-war buying has cooled off recently. With the exception of Hindu backs and an occasional T205/T206, I've mostly been working on a couple post war sets. This card however, I've always liked and was able to pick one up that has the eye appeal I need.

Picked up this T206 George Gibson Sweet Caporal 150 on eBay. It was in an PSA Authentic Altered holder, but for $24.99 I couldn't resist. Top border is short one way or another.

I wanted it to compare to the Piedmont 150 George Gibson that I have had for years.

Here are both for comparison.

Nice card.

That Lajoie version is first T206 I ever got, dad bought it for me for a buck about 1975 or so in Miami, Florida flea market(at drive in theatre). Still remember walking with my dad and seeing it along with a bunch of other prewar cards back then. To go back, would be nice.

If you could go back? it wouldn't have to be that far in the past, in 1980-85 you could find t206s in poor -vg commons for that low and stars like Cobb for
$20 to $75 range in fact 52 Mantles vg, -ex droped under $1000 thanks to the
old price guide CPU.

What a beautiful Gehrig card, Jeff!

Oh man I need to focus on cards like that and get off my duff and sell some cards that no longer have that "it" factor for me!
Awhile back I decided to chase HOFers instead of sets and types that I once liked gathering. Didn't work, I started 3 new sets anyway...even bought some type cards:p The addiction is in full swing I guess.

Anyway, these threads are always my favorites, keep 'em coming!
Its like a monthly museum trip.

Ian, beautiful cards!

Thanks! I'd always wanted both of those, especially Snider, who was my dad's favorite player.. He named his childhood dog Duke. Also really nice to grab some postwar cards after a whole lot of prewar.

Thanks to the valuable research information in the book, THE PHOTOGRAPHIC BASEBALL CARDS OF GOODWIN & COMPANY (1886-1890) by Miller, Gonsowski, and Masson and the related threads on this board I was able to identify and purchase a Wm Wires Old Judge proof of Julie Freeman and a Hubbell Cabinet card of Mike King Kelly.

I also picked up this OJ proof Sewell on BST. Thanks very much.
