January Pickups

[Exhibitman]

Bought it in November but it got hung up at my local post office for nearly a month until it finally made its way to me on Monday:

[Vintagecatcher]

Adam,

Nice pickup on the Meyers' Darby chocolates. I was tempted to bid myself but decided I was already over budget this year. I'm glad I didn't help jack up the price on you.

Congrats,


Patrick

[GregMitch34]

One of the nicest 1941s?

[kamikidEFFL]

[joeadcock]

Agreed Adam. Nice.

[paul]

My first ever Eastern Exhibits arrived in the mail today.

[Forever Young]

My first ever Eastern Exhibits arrived in the mail today.

You're welcome:) they went cheap IMO..:( I hope you like them!

[paul]

Thank you for the Eastern Exhibits. Didn't realize they came from a board member. I agree, I got them cheap.

Paul

Technically purchased at the very end of December, but it didn't make it to the Dec. thread.

Nice Kelly, Dave! Enjoy :-)

[kamikidEFFL]

Few pickups I got from Sterling's last auction...

Got my first PSA 7 Goudey for my 34 Set. Also one of new favorite cards in my collection. I also snagged a 38 Goudey for my set. One lot I just had to score was the N28/N29 lot of 12. Rough shape cards but I don't care just love the Ginter stuff. Backs are rough but the fronts aren't as bad. Sending them out to SGC to be graded. Yea they will come back with a low grades but they look so much better when they are encapsulated.

^^ Rick, that back is so totally cool!

[buymycards]

Thanks, Paul. Leon has the S74 with the same back but with baseball players on the front. They are even cooler!

[TistaT202]

another T213-2 NY American...not pretty but it'll have to do from a budget perspective.

Nice Coupon, Mike. I've seen and own far worse than your example. It's also not the easiest team variation to find.

T206 number 7. It's in the blood now. There is no stopping the monster.

[x2drich2000]

My last two pickups from 2013; a duplicate e92 Nadja, and while not quite as difficult as a Nadjas, a not very common blue Crofts Candy.

Picked this up from the small traditions auction last night. Just adding to my 07 Cobb team variations.

[ullmandds]

Those blue crofts candy backs are tough...nice one even though the front reminds me of tennesse tuxedo!

[yanksfan09]

Just got a couple nice looking low grade 1915 CJ's to go towards the set from a fellow board member....

[Vintagecatcher]

Thanks to Lee at Sterling Sports Auctions for this E93 Red Dooin.


Patrick

[quinnsryche]

3 new ones. I like the ZeeNuts where you can see the front of the jersey. The Otey is downgraded for an erased pencil mark on back. Charlie Duke, the 10th of 12 men to walk on the moon. Those guys are REAL heroes to me. My only post war card unless I get the other 2 moonwalkers from that set (Mitchell & Aldrin).

[pencil1974]

I see that. Wonder if they did variations in one run or these were printed at two different times. Love all your Cobb stuff by the way. I'll get there some day.

[cockrellcollection]

Just received this Pfeffer AB 460 today to go along with my Pfeffer Sov 460. Looks like I might have the start to a back run...

[wonkaticket]

Sharp cards Nathan.

[freakhappy]

Congrats on the AB, Nathan...good to get a toughie out of the way.

Love the Otey, Tony...I love when the appeal far exceeds the grade!

For sheer cojones per capita there aren't braver men than the ones who were willing to sit on top of a rocket then fly a quarter of a billion miles through space each way in a vehicle with the computer power of an old lap top to guide them, and then step onto the surface of an unknown environment where one misstep = death.

[3-2-count]

Here's a neat cabinet photo I just snagged. What I wouldn't give for that big circular shaped Piedmont box display in the back ground. Looks to be some sort of convention. The Piedmont banner runs the entire length of both booths. Cabinet measures out at 12 x 14.

My January Keeler pick up! Not really pre-war but kinda cool.

Not a card but my first magazine from my subscription. Something that will actually get me to read something. Thanks to Leon for the heads up on this should be a good read.

[Jason]

Another for my new subset.Thank you Mark.

Adam----that would be a quarter of a MILLION miles

Awesome Gehrig!

Nice Gehrig. One of my top 5 cards in the hobby.

I noticed the same thing when I saw them put together, but the famous trio should be Tinker to Evers to Chance. The yellow and green are simply out of order!

Real photo postcard of the 1906 Bridgeport Orators, featuring HOFer Jim Orator O'Rourke and his son Queenie. Thanks Brian!

[kkkkandp]

Jay:

Nice pickup!

Kevin

[MattyC]

I know this is seemingly not the splashy pickup, but to me, this is one of my best cards. The thick and dead centered borders on this baby ooze eye appeal, to me. And the image is bright and clean.

Some of the most serendipitous spider wrinkles ever conspire to make this baby a relatively cheap 1.5!

Bear in mind that the left inner ridge of the holder is obscuring but a sliver of the left edge.

I've shopped for this card for some time, and these full even borders just called out to me ;)

Chris - great cards. Finishing that set would be a real "monster"

Chris, there are no crappy pictures, just crappy cards. The photo is ok, but the cards are the opposite of crappy...nice collecting feat so far!

Brian

[buymycards]

Pete - I Love that Cobb!

[Brian Van Horn]

.

[brianp-beme]

Brian...are you able to make what is stamped on the back of your Koester's Bread card of Alex Ferguson? The scan is pretty light. Is it some sort of redemption offer from the company?

Brian

[Brian Van Horn]

Brian,

Here is what I have been able to decipher from the back of the card:

"Most prominent movie actors and actresses in the country. We have made up an album which will hold the complete (obliterated) On receipt of 15 cents (obliterated) will send a blank album to any address in the United States.

Then on the last line it seems to indicate "Confectionery Company."

I spoke with one member and am in the process of contacting another on this card. The one member indicated an eBay lot which has the exact same wording on the back with the exception of the "confectionery" part.

Here is the link (yes, I bought the other item as well):

First Lajoie SGC 30 :) thanks Derek for everything!

Loving the two Polar Bears and the beater Tolstoi :D

[quinnsryche]

Chris - that's awesome! I think I had about 9 diff. M101-6's in the 90's before I gave up. I just couldn't take not adding to my collection for like 2 years.
Congrats on having nerves of steel!

[nolemmings]

Good job Chris--way to take them out of circulation for the rest of us :(

Tony, I still have the m101-6 Sisler you sold me more than 9 years ago. Should have jumped on the Collins then too:o

[Vintagecatcher]

Honored to add this upgrade to my collection that was once owned by Lionel Carter.

That's cool to hear that you still have it. Nice to know it's in a safe place! Post a photo sometime, I'd like to see it again. I don't even remember which ones I had it's so long ago:eek:

[the-illini]

Thanks for the kind words everyone - it can be an excruciating set to try and find examples from. Only good thing about their scarcity is that the droughts keep me from going broke!

[itjclarke]

Got a 2nd chance on this E90-1 Cobb and pulled the trigger, after having it offered (at same price) about 2 years back. I've never been centering obsessed, which is good for this one... now just hope those 1908 rumors end up being true:D

[Iwantmorecards77]

I already had a T206 Speaker - but for some reason, I always wanted this card with a Polar Bear back.

[joeadcock]

Todd

I think Speaker T206 is one of the best looking cards of this set.

So I get what you say. That is why I also have more than one.

[edjs]

My second Pre-war card ever. Obviously my first T212. My first pre-war hasn't arrived yet.

Fun, and way cool. No Ruth for me yet......someday the stars will align!

[Iwantmorecards77]

Thanks, Joe. I really like the T206 Speaker as well. I'm on a tight budget - so I had to sell my other one (PSA 4 - MK) to afford the Polar Bear. Great card.

Todd

[x2drich2000]

I've always like the r309 Ruth as well, one of these days I'm sure I'll pull the trigger on one.

George--how is this? The image is not as sharp as I might like, but it is pretty neat.

Much better...thanks! That's a great piece...I could swear I've seen this somewhere before (probably on here) some time ago and always thought it was a great image. If you ever obtain more information on the team, I'd love to hear about it.

Did anyone win this on Ebay?
I bidded on it several times...but gave up when my Goodwin catalog came in the mail
I researched it, as i am not much pre-war, and it says it was a Plank RC...Correct??
From what i seen on prices..it was a good bargin i believe..
It was a NICE one, and have to show it after it ended.

That was my eBay listing. The buyer got a pretty darn good deal if you ask me. Oh well! I don't recall representing it as a rookie, but if I did, it was in error . Rookie cards are what I know best!!

[packs]

Hey guys. I won the Plank. Happy it came from a board member! Just FYI i'll be sending payment after I get home from work.

[h2oya311]

By the way, the "rookie head-cases" (like me) would probably consider his 1902 W600 Sporting Life Cabinet as Plank's rookie, but I wouldn't shed a tear if I had the 1903 E107 instead!!

[packs]

Payment sent! Thanks for the card. I really appreciate the free shipping too.

[h2oya311]

By the way #2, the past tense of "to bid" is "bid", not "bidded". I'm not a grammar nazi, but that one just kills me!

Congrats Lee!! Glad it went to a fellow Net54 member!!

[I Only Smoke 4 the Cards]

Great card. The Raja is one of my all-time favorite players. Unfortunately he gets overshadowed by Jackie Robinson in a lot of discussions which is sad because Hornsby was a much better player. My first R312.

Was doing some late night browsing on Scott's site and made these two my first Belltown purchases. Not in hand yet, but after several solid transactions with Mr. Forrest, I know they'll be here quick and safe. Excited mostly for the Meikle (and it's great colors) after having just missed out on one on eBay a couple months back.

[freakhappy]

Matt...killer card! Congrats!

Nice 205's, King...your collection is coming along nicely.

Ian...beautiful pickups as always. And that Scott guy....he's alright I guess ;)

Yea I have Marty. I am trying to complete the set fast well faster than I originally wanted to. Plus some of the deals I have recently been getting is just to good to pass on. I am sure there will be others to come in the near future. Now only if I can score some more 38 goudey's haha

I can't agree with your comment right at this moment, but hopefully, I'll be in a position to agree with it come Super Bowl Sunday morning, assuming that a certain collector with deeper pockets than me doesn't decide he can't live without the WaJo card you know I covet! :D

Can't wait to see your set come together as well. I am focusing right now on trying to obtain a nice Greenberg for my set and a few of the higher number ones. But hey that doesn't mean I won't be trying to pick up others. There is a nice 5 chuck Klein on the site here for sale I'd pick it up but it's sgc. Anyway can't wait to see what you have coming in.

For a couple of my buddies who I know never venture over to the Post War thread (which has been live lately, swing on by!). Others please forgive the Post War post in these here parts; no offense intended.

I was after one of these SO, SO BADLY; all I ever dreamed of was decent centering OR registration/focus. Never thought I'd get both in one card.

Hey Wonka John, whether it's because you carried out your "plan" (most likely! :D) or it's because I outbid you know who for the first time ever for a rare/scarce WaJo card (not likely!), I am PUMPED at having won the 1921 Herpolsheimer WaJo in last night's LOTG Auction!!! I'll show this card in the LOTG pick-up thread. Thanks for the encouragement you gave me to go for it!

BTW, I love the fabulously strong images on all of the OJs that you have picked up lately. I have 70+ OJs of Washington players, and I don't think any one of mine has an image as strong as any of yours!
Best,
Val
