[Stonepony]

Another big pickup by Pete! Awsome!

[Jobu]

Wow Pete! Great card.

[soxinseven]

Average card Pete. Great pickup!!!

[darwinbulldog]

Jayzus!

[sportscardpete]

Lock this thread, it doesn't get any better than that. amazing card.

[edjs]

Can we start doing two pickup threads every month? I hate posting after Pete. :p Seriously, though, Pete, that is another awesome card. I would love to see what all you have together now. It has to be magnificent seeing them all together.

[njdunkin1]

Beautiful Ruth...here are a few of my more recent pickups that I have not posted. Basketball just for the giggles!

[pcoz]

Thanks everybody, appreciate the kind words. Fortunate to have one for each of my 3 little guys, and fortunate to have great friends in the hobby!

[glchen]

Gorgeous card, Pete. Great pickup!

[h2oya311]

I bet you couldn't wait to start the September thread!!! Very nice card, Pete! And you have 3!! Yikes!

[GasHouseGang]

If there is an opening to be your 4th little guy please let me know, I will submit a very strong application. :D

[aljurgela]

still a solid card for my TG set...

[edjs]

I put this in another thread, but I wanted to show it here, too. I hope ya'll don't mind.

[h2oya311]

still a solid card for my TG set...

WOWZERS!! Absolutely stunning card! I refuse to post any pick-ups in this thread after what I've seen so far!

[edjs]

still a solid card for my TG set...


Al, that is pure cane sugar, it is so sweet.

[rhettyeakley]

Impressive guys, a Ruth M101-4/5 and a Pop Lloyd SGC 84!

Ed, that is one of the nicer T213-1's I have seen (good pick up!)

[glchen]

Picked up this up a while ago actually, but just got it back from grading. Very fragile, so really wanted it protected.

[aljurgela]

Al, that is pure cane sugar, it is so sweet.

Thanks y'all... will fit in nicely and puts my my set seriously above 50 on average.... a lifelong labor....

If you start going down the Brad and Angelina route and wish to adopt #5, I'll make myself available after Bryan!;) I can even be the black sheep of the family and settle for a grade 1!

In all seriousness... Another fantastic pickup!

Phew! That is a sweet card!!

Congrats Greg

Now my highest graded HOFer t206 and great centering (always a key for me). And his rookie card.

[DeanH3]

Nice card Greg. That color really pops!

[Jobu]

+1 --- and very nice registration for a card that usually lacks it.

Nice card Greg. That color really pops!

[CardMD]

Finally got a standing pose. Very nice for a PSA 4. Very happy with this one. Also got it for 1000 less then when PWCC sold the same card in May. Tells you something about PWCC pricing maybe? Market softer maybe? Not sure.

[Vintagecatcher]

Thanks to Jeff R. for this awesome T207 Tex Erwin from the B/S/T thread.

[rats60]

I picked up my first UZIT off the BST. I now only need a Drum to complete my back run.

[sportscardpete]

in my 6 years of collecting the e104 series I have never seen so many new listings. Last night's PWCC offering was amazing. I think this kind of activity helps bring more attention to the series as e104 and particularly e104-3's that had been dormant in 2011-2014.

I wondered if you were going to get any of those. Nice haul, Pete!

[x2drich2000]

Pete, nice pickups, I wasn't sure if that's was you who got them or the other collector building the set. How many do you have now from each series?

DJ

[edjs]

Wow Pete, I was under bidder on just about all those. I was hoping to get one of the type 2s and one of the type 3s, but you were much more determined. I did get the type 1 Hartsel, so now I have two of those....:cool:.

Congrats on a great group to add to your collection!

[gabrinus]

Those are amazing Pete!! Congrats!!.......Jerry

Great Hair! - nice card

[CardMD]

Happy to get these two from PWCC. Paige is a long term keeper. Always good to get a Cobb.

[mybuddyinc]

................ and another PWCC win (at half of what was thought :rolleyes: a possible losing snipe).

244753

Such a tough common, I'd forgot what it looked like :)

Nice cards Aaron. I was bidding on the Paige as well. Awesome card. Congrats.

Nadja's from PWCC

So you are the other one! Man, I wanted one of the 2s and one of the 3s. Great cards, and congrats.

[edjs]

My first, and the easiest, complete set. Then I bought another Paul Dean tonight, to go with the Dizzy I already had, so now two complete sets. I haven't seen these talked about in a long time.

..Found the original "Geo Burke 847 Belmont Ave. Chicago" photos for Bruce Campbell and Lou Fette....the Campbell was heavily airbrushed and cropped when it was used for the 1936 Fine Pen R313 premium issued by National Chicle ; I don't recall seeing the Lou Fette used for any other purpose ; it would have made a great '33 Worch or '39 Play Ball..

From Sterling last night:

[Joshwesley]

From RMY auctions last month

Just got it back from
The framer.

My great, great grandad... He bailed cy young out a couple times in relief!

It's a type 1 from the major Cleveland newspaper at the time

T206 print freaks are not something i normally go after, but i really liked this one. I may have paid little too much, but I love the Hickman in fire variation.

[Joshchisox08]

Got a few rarer commons marked off my list :D

[Jason]

A couple September pickups with another Two Name T210 added to my little subset. Maloney/Dale both from Dallas. One more makes an even dozen. Good times.

[mybuddyinc]

A few :):):):):):):) pick ups from Sterling

[seanofjapan]

Just picked up this uncut sheet of cards from the 1949 San Francisco Seals Good will tour of Japan. Its very....colorful.

I did a little write up about it here http://baseballcardsinjapan.blogspot.jp/2016/09/lefty-odoul-and-1949-san-francisco.html

[orly57]

Finally found the right one at the right price. One of the great things about net54 man. I was turned on to the card by a member (erik lewin) who knew i was on the hunt, and the guy selling it on ebay is a somewhat inactive member. But once i reached out to him and he saw I am a member, we did a fantastic off-ebay transaction. Just cant get this dang pic upright!!!

[GasHouseGang]

That's was the rare horizontal Cracker Jack Cobb!:D. You fixed the picture, now it looks much better. Congrats on picking up that beauty.

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Love that Cobby! Damn nice looking 2

Got these in the mail today....

[Vintagecatcher]

Congrats on the beautiful Cobb Cracker Jack!


Patrick

[itjclarke]

In search of Mattys and good karma for my Giants. I'd been watching the T213 for months, but the combination of the 10% bonus bucks, Ebates, and a win vs the Cards made it impossible to resist any longer (the 4 beers at the game didn't hurt either :D).

[Stonepony]

Nice Matty T213 Ian

So happy you snagged it! Once I just got mine I was on the lookout for you, wasn't expecting to see another so quickly! Great months for both of us. Here's my Fall haul:

[orly57]

Those are awesome man. And thanks again. Got so excited with Cobb that i forgot to post my other cards for the month!

[orly57]

And

[orly57]

Cobb

[orly57]

when i saw that centering...

[edjs]

That is a hell of a Cobb, Orlando!

[GasHouseGang]

Wow Orlando, I think you did a great job of picking cards that look particularly good for their technical grade. Those are the beautiful.

[orly57]

Wow Orlando, I think you did a great job of picking cards that look particularly good for their technical grade. Those are the beautiful.

Thanks for the compliment. You have encapsulated my collecting mantra in that sentence. Low grade cards with great centering that present well-above grade is what I buy. And while i am thrilled with my cj cobb, Erik's looks like it just came out of a box !!!

[ValKehl]

Orlando, GREAT cards! I can't wait for your October encore!

[jmb]

Some really great pick-ups so far.

[irv]

when i saw that centering...

Very nice!

Wish I had of seen that one, but likely couldn't afford it anyways? :(

[MikeGarcia]

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/2042957/view/1900WORCH_NEW.JPG

..there must have been a document dump somewhere earlier this year because I've never been able to pair up so many of my cards with their original photos ;
...I just received the "Underwood & Underwood" 5 x 7 'Oral Hildebrand P.-Cleveland' which was used to create the 1933 Worch Cigar Premium "O. Hildebrand Cleveland A.L.". The Worch measures 3 1/2 x 5 1/2. I love the pose and the intense look on his face.

..

[Kingcobb]

Really happy to pick up these 4 over the weekend. Especially the Colgan's Tin Tops they have been hard to come by lately.

[Leon]

Cobb

Great looking Cobby, and actually, all of them!! They are the exact type many of us try to acquire. They look fantastic but aren't technically high grade. Perfecto combination.

It never ceases to amaze me the condition some of these cards are in after all these years!

Some definitely loved their cards, even way back then.

[mechanicalman]

I'm head over heels for centered T206 HOFers.

[Qiot]

Been a busy September, FINALLY (2 years later) picked up a Matty. Now I'm only a Bresnahan, Grover Alexander and Dick Hoblitzell away from having a card to match everyone in my tobacco ad. Have Cobb, Mathewson, and Huggins.

[Howe’s Hunter]

Thanks to Bryan (Jobu) who spotted this one early on in the auction/BIN process and let me know about it. Couple of hours later, I think we may have a new board member and I've got another HoFer in the rebuilt collection. Thanks for the help, Bryan.

Finally landed a really tough common with this Big Bull Durham. Many thanks to Beck6 for striking a very fair deal with me.

[Jobu]

What a coincidence! Another of Howe's cards right after the Speaker. NJ, do you know about Ed's McCormick collection? Seems like you have a card to trade him!

I think they call this T216-1, it's on the thin paper and a t213-2 Baker...

[boxingcarddigest]

Found these downunder with another half dozen cards of other sports from the N162 set.

Was pretty happy to add another Cobb.

[njdunkin1]

Hmm... I now feel that Mr. Durham doesn't quite belong around these parts! I have reached out to Mr. McCollum and we are in discussion for the card. Thank you for the observations, everyone :]

Have always wanted a Wagner portrait. Never thought I'd actually own one. Thanks Richard!

[Gobucsmagic74]

Almost forgot...again, thanks Richard!

[ruth-gehrig]

Growing up and attending local card shows there was always a dealer who sat up and brought along what looked like a higher grade 1953 Topps Mantle. I remember it being displayed in one of those 1 inch screw down holders and what a beautiful card it was. I'm happy to own a copy of the card I alway remember admiring as a kid. Thank you Andy for another smooth transaction :)

[itjclarke]

WOW!!! Congrats Dan, that's a beauty. Love Gary's DeLong Gehrig too.

This entire Sept thread has been amazing from the get go.

[Michael Peich]

I picked up this trade card at the Valley Forge show yesterday. It's a stock card that printed the advertiser's information in the blank space between the bat and catcher's mask/bats. The card measures 4 3/8" X 7 3/8" and is printed on heavier stock. It was produced in 1886 by Ketterlinus Lithographers, one of Philadelphia's premier printers/lithographers of the late 19th/early 20th century. The baseball scene on this card was a stock depiction for Ketterlinus and is identified by the number 2217 beneath the ball.

Enjoy, Mike

My first Zeenut with a coupon:



..can you make out the writing at the bottom ? It looks like a name , followed by "Reading , Pa" ??

I wonder if that coupon was valid, or an April Fool's joke when they tried to use it...

Looks like the first word could be "Colliery"? Which is basically a coal mine and would make sense coming from PA.

I don't have the card in-hand yet. I'll post more details if I can make out the writing when I receive the card.

Nice little pick-up...

It is or should be Collins-McCarthy the maker of Zeenuts...although that second word first letter looks like an H...

1934 Goudey Charlie Gehringer. Card looks better than the grade in my opinion.

Great looking Gehringer. Much nicer than the number on the flip.

Great looking Gehringer. Much nicer than the number on the flip.

Thanks! It has a SMALL crease through the face area, but it's hardly noticeable, especially in a picture. It also has a small stain-type mark on the top, but again, hardly noticeable.

I have been taught to buy the card, not the grade. VERY happy with this, especially for the price.

[GasHouseGang]

Picked up something from the Cardinals Gas House Gang era.

The last 2 words appear to me to be "Candy Co." The "C" looks the same to me as the "C" in Collins. Perhaps it is "Collins Hershey Candy Co."

Val, I think you may be right, I went with the Pa. theme and "read" Reading into it.

Haven't posted since spring, pretty much no activity... this was an accidental pickup that hit two milestones:

* 100th different T207 Napoleon back
* Completes the T207 Cincinnati front/back runs. (http://imageevent.com/gspinf/t207brownbackground/t207teamsmaster/cincinnatinational)

Not much to see, just a serendipitous pickup.

That's it! Thanks.

It says Collins-Hencke Candy Co. (part of the "Co." at the end is cut off so it looks funny)

They were the successors to Collins-McCarthy Candy Co.

[rhettyeakley]

Prior to any Zeenut cards it was actually the Getleson-Collins Co.

Some time prior to 1911 it had become the Collins-McCarthy Candy Co (I have a 1911 Zeenut w/ the C-McC back stamp and later was Collins-Hencke

Thanks Luke. Wasn't a card on my radar but couldn't pass it up.

[clydepepper]

Happy to get these two from PWCC. Paige is a long term keeper. Always good to get a Cobb.



Cool Pickups, Aaron!

I also purchased both of these earlier this year (though the Cobb was a '5')

Great minds think alike?

Chris Bland (the-Illini) was scanning cards last week to list for sale when he noticed Howe's stamp on the back of this Gandil. Chick is now #296 in the rebuilt collection. Thanks, Chris.

Ed: If there's ever a Collectors Hall of Fame you are going in on the first ballot. The resurrected Howe McCormick T206 collection is beyond astounding.

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Ed great colors on the Gandil! Sweet card

Found these at the Long Beach Coin and Card show...

[Stonepony]

Beauties AJ!!

Picked up another Stanage T205. Graded authentic. Beauty!
