Finally was able to complete my 4 Cobb run last night...grabbed a nice Bat/on

...on cold rainy days I stay inside and take apart my pile of old dilapidated scrapbooks and photo albums and restore and clean what I can. I don't touch the nice ones...

.I like the added touch of the very neat cursive fountain pen " 'Pittsburg' Pirates ".

..Evidently the kid was not from Pittsburgh . Nice penmanship though...a confidant hand.

A longtime board member graciously agreed to sell me this e103 oddity from my favorite set and another big acquisition for my oddity/error Type Card run....

Nice, Brian. I don't see a bunch of E103 print errors.

[shammus]

Aside from this one and a couple that have rough cuts (possibly handcut)...I've really not seen any other e103 oddities. All three "Williams" sets were extraordinarily clean now that I think about it - you don't see too many at all out of e107, e103 or the Oxford e253 set

Nice Cobby Chris! Congrats on finishing off the T206 Cobbys. The bat off is eluding me thus far but in time I'll corral one.

[mrvster]

GREAT PICK UPS!

Thank you, Dave. I have had other cards from the set, but this one, well.......

[ullmandds]

Shut out in 2015 on adding to my miller run...2016 has been better!!!

Thanks to REA and a board member for these.

[Jobu]

Pete, are you sure these all exist? I don't recall ever seeing a scan or someone saying they have a blue crofts.

Yes i believe they all exist.

Happy to have reacquired this one from a friend recently...

Nice ones to both Petes......Jerry

There is a E92 Crofts Candy Blue reverse of Harry Davis ending tonight on Mile High. I think it is particularly special since I consigned it.

[53Browns]

The search is over...

In the BST, this post belongs.

[Yoda]

Disagree. Put this post up because a member on this thread stated Croft Candy blue backs was on his want list and since I had consigned a nice Davis with such a reverse to the Mile High Auction, one of the advertisers on this board by the way, I posted a message. This card would never be found on b/s/t. Isn't one of the missions of this board to try and help each other to find those cards we covet by whatever means. Lighten up.

[glchen]

Sure, but you could've just PM'd that board member about that auction. And I don't think it matters that Mile High is an advertiser or not. There's a separate forum under BST for ebay and auction house items.

[edjs]

And, back to new pick ups:

An E104-1 Morgan, and an E104-3 Jones, they may be rough, but very tough. Thanks DJ for a great transaction on the Jones. And you can't beat $50 from a random e-bay find on the Morgan. Now I need a World's Champions and a type 2 to have a representative of each (unless there are Nadja backed type 2 or 3s?).

[gabrinus]

Ed, not to burst your bubble but they have Nadja backs as well......they are rare but not impossible........Jerry

[brianp-beme]

Reread his post "In the BST, this post belongs" in the voice of Yoda and you will realize that Mr. 4815162342 had his light saber set to tickle.

Agree but not the end of the world..... John (Yoda) is a great guy (hi John) so he and I will chat about it. We can't really let every one post for sale stuff on the front page or it would be anarchy. A PM in this case would have been a bit better. Also, as stated, we do have a place for ebay and other venues announcements in the BST section for them.

[vintagetoppsguy]

Picked this up last night on eBay. Sovereign 460 Back.

[Stonepony]

maybe i am a tad prewar!

still looking for the W jackson if anyone has any leads.

Gabby Hartnett, 1932 Fleer "Whiz Bang Gum"....apparently these were not known to exist until a find a few years ago...only 3 baseball cards in set, Grove, Goslin and Hartnett... only 4 Hartnetts in all and this is only one graded. No idea of ultimate value but fun...The two tiny holes in his cheeks were to hold string, for hanging card? pulling it like a kite?

cool! were those "found" in that crazy old candy distributorship "find" of lots of unopened early 30's stuff?

Horseshoe Tobacco made by Drummond. Something to chew, while going through your T206 cards back in the day.

[VoodooChild]

This is my new favorite "card" in my Pittsburgh collection. I've seen it a couple of times, but never with this particular ad back:

[BeanTown]

Nice card Jason, I was the under bidder on that with the PWCC auction that just ended.

[MartyFromCANADA]

Just got these back from SGC. 1909 World Champion Pirates.

Nice card Jason, I was the under bidder on that with the PWCC auction that just ended.

Thanks Jay. Yeah, I was pretty much "all-in" on it with a substantial max bid.

Cool cards Marty! Nice to see other Pittsburgh collectors out there.

[CardMD]

Picked up this nice Johnson Portrait - replaced my PSA 4.5. I love centering.

[Leon]

+2 on centering. Personally I think it makes cards looks so much better than others with regular centering. Gorgeous card, congrats on that addition.

[jbl79]

My two recent pickups...

[mechanicalman]

Wow. Page 7 started strong. Beautiful WAJO and nice Cobbs.

[gnaz01]

While I know it isn't perfect, it's my first e107

[RackPackManiac]

Finally added this one to my Cubs collection

[Jobu]

Nice one Greg! I was thinking about that too, great-looking card.

While I know it isn't perfect, it's my first e107

[IronHorse2130]

My first REA win. I know it's low grade but I think it has nice eye appeal.No creases or wrinkles.

Very nice '34 Gehrig portrait! Hoping to add that card to my collection as well. Congrats!

[ccre]

While I know it isn't perfect, it's my first e107
Congrats! I was the underbidder on that one. Still a good deal I think.

[leaflover]

Just found it. I misplaced this card about 2 years ago.

[pcoz]

Congrats Greg!

[RCMcKenzie]

Nice cards this month, y'all. That 1914 CJ Cobb is great..Still slogging through the T213-2 set, about halfway now..

[shernan30]

Added 2 more this week from the Bay.

V100 Willard Chocolate John Sullivan
Played for Carl Molesworth from 1922-1923 in Columbus

[bxb]

Able to snag this one off the Bay (PWCC) from the recent high grade set.

Interesting that there are no 9s or 10s ever graded by PSA or SGC for the entire series.

http://www.net54baseball.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=230884&stc=1&d=1463057785

[pencil1974]

Added these this month...

[T206Collector]

Jeez, that WAJO PSA 6 and Cobb Red SGC 80 are sick. So jealous.

[shernan30]

Added these this month...



Nice pickups!!

[Kelleys1]

These came this week. Was surprised got Stahl at price I did from PWCC.

[Lordstan]

Sooooo psyched to add my newest card. A real toughie. Hi Bell died in 1949, so only a 15yr window to sign the card. Now at 81/96

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v222/lordstan/1934%20goudeys/52%20Bell.jpg

[CardMD]

Picked the yellow one from up from recent PWCC to compliment my earlier red purchase this month. Got the Ruth bug!!

[kdixon]

Picked up this Zach Wheat Old Mill T206. Still looking for a Red Hindu Wheat also.

[mybuddyinc]

Happy winning the lot of 85 E90-1 in Heritage last night.

Of course, mainly going to be dupes (maybe some upgrades) .....

.... However, added 8, to bring total to 111 :) Including the semi tough Buster Brown, and Dougherty. As well as the "image tough" Dots "Big Glove / Hit it to my Right" Miller......


.............. BUT .................. THIS IS THE BIG ONE:


231033


Tough, tough, tough, tough card. I mean tough. ;)

When I get it in hand, be interesting what's up with "Pitts" printing,

Fun stuff, Scott

BTW, tough card :rolleyes:

[yanksfan09]

upgraded my Ruth pose exhibit. Maybe Ruths best image on a card...

[Thromdog]

Very happy to pick this one up, especially at the price......a card I've been really wanting for a while.

Will also have a new stack of EPDGs that I will have to sort through. ;)

231039

[paul]

A couple of Mickeys.

[ejharrington]

While I know it isn't perfect, it's my first e107
That's a real nice looking card. Some lower grade (but nice looking) E107's went for big bucks last night on Heritage.

[OldEnglishD]

.

[ccre]

It's great to only wait until 11:30pm to find out you won a lot! Thought it went for a good price too. Excited!

[ullmandds]

great ruths...love the exhibit...the gehrig and that crofts crawford is spectaclar.

not sure if I've shown this recent pick up!

[Sinker Slider]

So far my collection is almost exclusively post-war, but apparently I got lost yesterday and ended up in the pre-war world and bought myself a Merkle at a local shop.

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Dueling snipes on this PWCC highest graded Speaker ran it up, but I love it anyway. I think Polar Bear is my favorite back. #catchingT206fever

[RCMcKenzie]

a couple more for the Crandall run. The Old Mill is actually more difficult than a Red Hindu for Crandall w/hat and the Polar Bear is about as difficult as a Crandall RH

[gabrinus]

Got this from REA today.......Jerry

[Scott L.]

Some really nice stuff guys. Was able to win this for a decent price in the Heritage auction. Think it presents pretty nicely for a 10. Slowly putting together a collector grade set. Have both of the Wagner's now.

Great pick up Brian! I'm hoping to add a Black Swamp Find McLean to my Reds collection some day, but I need the price to come down.

Your pickups and B/S/T threads are always so diverse; I'm curious what is your collecting interest / focus?

One more acquisition before the Robert Morris show. Thank you, Mark:

[Jeff_cvc]

I haven't posted my monthly pickups in awhile, but after looking at everyone's cardboard I was inspired to scan and post. Incredible cards everyone, thanks for sharing.

It took some trades and cash to get this Cobb, but it was worth it.
231890

My second Denver OJ, as I go on my quest for this subset. Thanks to OJ guru Jay Miller for this one and my first Denver OJ

I had some rare good fortune at an estate sale/auction this week. The Suitcase Seeds card is strangely a blank back on thicker cardboard, so I would welcome some input.

Great Cobby and worth a sacrifice..


I haven't posted my monthly pickups in awhile, but after looking at everyone's cardboard I was inspired to scan and post. Incredible cards everyone, thanks for sharing.

It took some trades and cash to get this Cobb, but it was worth it.

My second Denver OJ, as I go on my quest for this subset. Thanks to OJ guru Jay Miller for this one and my first Denver OJ

Happy Happy to land this for my back run, thank you to board member
Chris for making this a reality (this wasn't a May pickup but I haven't posted in awhile, so I added it).

My first Green Cobb

A very difficult T200 to find in any condition. Number six in this 16 card set, possibly my favorite set of all-time.

Thanks Joe. The exhibits are great in that I can afford (barely) a higher grade Cobb. A T206, E98 or other desireable Cobb's in the same grade, I would guess, would cost 3-4 times as much as I spent. As much as I love the artwork of a t206 it is pretty cool having an actual photo print of the great Cobb.

[Vintagecatcher]

Picked up this Chief Myers (Catching T206) that has a severe diamond cut and registration issues that create a "double vision" and a "twin bill."

I wasn't sure if I would ever see this card since there was a delay in shipping, and once it was shipped, it went from Alabama to Texas before heading here to Maine.

Saturday pickups from the Robert Morris show:

[mybuddyinc]

From Wheatland .....

................ beautiful front, I'll live with paper loss ;)

Don't worry, Frank, will update MN soon ............... :)

Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Just need the red one...

[iowadoc77]

Nice card AJ. My favorite Goudey Ruth by far. I bought mine 3 years ago at the National. Remember that purchase. At the time, it was the most I had paid for a card. Still one of my favorites.

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Thanks Eric! Decided I'd better buy some low grade examples before I got priced out as they seem to be on the ups right now. Love the Goudey set.

Here's another one that showed up in the mail today. As a CJ collector I'm partial to the deep red background and love how it matches Cy's "B A" on his shirt. This is a tremendous no crease grade 3 that I jumped at when it posted on ebay last week.

[btkpath]

This has been a great week!!!

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Love that Chance Barry!

[Luke]

Wow Barry, nice! You should bring a few 1914s to the show to show them off and so I can see them. I've still never owned one from either year.

[Leon]

E90-1 Young Boston, One of my favorite all time cards....and well centered is hard to find. Congrats...
and congrats for all of the great pick ups so far guys...still another week to the month so there is time left...spend, spend, spend :)!!

(and another rppc pick up as I am deciding where to venture next)

Many thanks to Henry Moses for parting with this N333 Newsboy (finally :) ). This example enjoys a strong photo which makes for easy reading of the small nameplate. Introducing John "Jack" Flood, Detroit Journal right fielder.

Still looking for many of his teammates & opponents . . .

[VintageJay]

Super Newsboy!

I have always wanted the Collins-Boston Globe.

Excellent images on those two! They are beauties!

Nabbed Hugh Duffy PSA 4 with American Beauty 460 back using the BIN on eBay last night. Needed Duffy for my set and did not have that back yet. Two birds , one stone!😀

Beautiful Greg
Great E90-1 Young on my short list :)

Joe, great pickups over the year and how did you get Moses to part with it? :)

To keep the 19th century black and white theme going, I'll add this California League card.

You guys are killing me with those cards. Really, killing me.

Nice WaJo Greg!

Just got this Baker. I've owned a few copies over the years, but always lower grade and I never kept any for long. Got this one from a board member, thanks again!

Those are nice ones Pete......people don't appreciate how rare they are IMHO...Jerry

I second that, and the ones that are available quite often are used-looking (which I applaud) like the ones Pete has shown.

Awesome! Between you and Joe, you've made this 19th century baseball card aficionado very envious!

A.J., that's my favorite Cy Young card (and as a T206 guy it hurts to admit this). Congratulations.

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Thanks Sean, I'm with you. I think by far that's the best Cy Young card ever made. That rich red background is awesome.

Picked this up from another board member last week...Steve got to me A-Ok! I think these Exhibits are the most underrated cards on the market right now.

[mechanicalman]

AJ, you're on a DiMaggio-esque streak of awesome pick-ups. Totally agree on Exhibits by the way.

[Jeff_cvc]

AJ, congrats on the Cobb, is it weird that mine sits on my bedside table? I think it is making my wife jealous. ;)

Nothing exotic just a couple T205's and one T205 American Beauty back.

[Vintagecatcher]

Thanks to Sterling Sports Auctions and Lee for this T212 1911 John Tiedemann Obak. Perhaps my favorite Obak.

I wanted a 3rd one for my display with his trimmed T4 cabinet.

Thanks,

Patrick

This photograph of Joe and Dom DiMaggio was taken October 1st, 1949 on Joe DiMaggio Day at Yankee Stadium. It was later signed by Joe in ballpoint pen.

I love this photo!

Very tough 1907 Raymond Kahn Cleveland team postcard. Have only ever seen 4 or 5 of these. This was the first one that I have seen that was unused. Love any image with Addie Joss.

Not a Koufax Clemente or Rose but it will suffice.

Great card Peter! Think those are actually a bit underrated.

[Joshchisox08]

4 cards I got off of Luke months ago just came back from PSA and holding for the first time!

Pfeffer from Jeff :D

Some poor raw cards.... Def need to upgrade all of my Overall's at some point but at least I finally have all of his cards now.

[mechanicalman]

Great card Peter! Think those are actually a bit underrated.

Totally agree on both fronts. Beautiful card.
