November Pickups

[njdunkin1]

Tricky card for me. Was back and forth with the seller until we finally struck a deal. Hugh Duffy American Beauty 460!
The Durham I received in a fun trade. Tough card in higher grade, for sure. Thank you, Ed!

Purchased in Oct., but arrived today.

Thanks guys. I really appreciate your comments. My non-collector friends might think it's cool to own a card of a guy in that "Field of Dreams" movie, but I'm not sure they would truly get it. ;)

a very young Dennis Galehouse , in the minors until 1936....a refugee from the poster..

...I had just started cleaning the poster-child (temporarily and carefully unseated for removal of 81 years worth of cigar smoke and grime) when the graded one became available so despite the fountain pen "1935" on the otherwise blank back I bought it......

..doesn't come up often..He won a world series game in 1944 pitching for the Browns as I recall.....lost one, too...

[Luke]

Just completed arguably the toughest Old Mill player run (there are 4 others in the conversation).

[Jason Carota]

Nice Galehouse, Mike! I like the slight difference in the crop of the "poster-child."

[njdunkin1]

Marty - awesome choice in Jennings. There's something pretty awesome about that orange-yellow that is so prevalent in his cards.
Luke - Wow! That is amazing! Was the "finger in air" the toughest?

[DerekMichael]

That is seriously awesome Luke. Congrats.

[Luke]

Thanks Derek and NJ! I've only been looking for 2-3 years, but in my experience yes. My copy is the only one I'm aware of that has sold in that time period.

[MikeGarcia]

Nice Galehouse, Mike! I like the slight difference in the crop of the "poster-child."

...yeah the first "L" in "Millers" is visible on the cleaner-upper but not the Graded photo...

..Good eye..

[VintageBen]

Joe DiMaggio was so new to the card company that they spelled his last name wrong.
Card is rather large. Measuring 4"x 5 3/8"
I love this card.

Is there a list somewhere of all the CDN born BB players through the years?

I have looked at my 52's and noticed a few and it got me wondering, how far back does one have to go to see CDN's playing in the major leagues?

There are definitely Canadians in the N172 set; not sure if there is anything older.

Hi Irv.

Bill Phillips in regarded as the first Canadian big league player.
He has a few cards in the N172 set (Old Judge)

Other Canucks in the set;

Tip O'Neill
George Wood
Pete Wood
Arthur Irwin
John Irwin
Pop Smith

*I think I counted 54 Canadians who played at least one game from 1880-1900. Like Richard noted, Baseball-Reference has a full list of all Canadians who have made a big league appearance.

I am planning to work with 1880nonsports (Henry) to separate them from the paper backing and then may grade them. I ran the pops at SGC and PSA and the rarest one by population is Slocum, who only has 5 graded between both TPGs. Myers is the next lowest at 9 total. Who got the Buck Ewing from the same seller? He still has some Quadrupeds and Birds in large format for those nonsport collectors among you.

[Bill77]

Just got this today, and gave it a bath. My first time soaking a card and I turned a Piedmont into a Tolstoi.

Nice; the black color of the design should have been the clue.

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

I know they are low grade and nothing otherwise extraordinary, but these are my first two T205s and I could easily get hooked! Personally, I could be pretty happy with a set that looks like the Merkle. I won't be able to buy much between now and after Christmas (unless I start liquidating something like my '65s), but my 2017 might just start off with more of these gold bordered beauties. Thanks to the T205 collectors for the inspiration.

[Bill77]

Yeah I was comparing it to pictures of the different backs after I got it, there were a few inconsistencies with the Piedmont back and then I saw the Tolstoi back and smiled. Its the second T206 I have bought from an Ebay seller that probably didn't know a lot about the set.

[swarmee]

Of the 325 Needhams in the PSA Pop Report, only 7 are Tolstoi backs.

[Vintagecatcher]

Just returned from the GBSSC show at Shriner's Auditorium in Wilmington, MA.

Went with no expectations and had a great time.

Got to hold a few Irv Lewis T207s. Saw some neat cards, and traded a few pre-war postcards for an Ira Thomas Diamond Gum Pin.

I also met an old time board member, who many assumed might have passed away. Ralph in NH is alive and well, and we had a long chat.

I found this link by just typing in "List of all CDN's who played in the major leagues"
It is 1/2 the way down and it's since 1871, which shows 245 CDN's played.
Just click on their names to find info about them.

[yanksfan09]

Thrilled to add 2 more new D381 players that I didn't have before yesterday from REA as well as a bunch more tabbed cards. Also got the Clark variation from Goodwin weeks ago. Also got the Anson, just in from REA, gorgeous card with small pinhole.

[Koufax32fan]

I picked these up at a show in St. Louis

There is a E120 Hornsby out there, but it has paper loss on the back, so I passed on it.

My 3rd T205. It is only a common, but I am really hooked on these! The scan doesn't do this card's color justice. It is beautiful! I have looked at scans of other peoples' T205s for years, but having them in hand is a whole new ballgame! I am also reading The Glory of Their Times, which is helping fill in some gaps and build some knowledge for me as I have traditionally been a postwar collector.

My first Old Judge :) Made a quick ppt slide for it. Love to learn about the history. Ken Burns baseball inning 1 was on last night. Very interesting. However, makes me not want to collect Cap Anson.

I got a complete set of Metropolitan Studio St. Louis Cardinals. There are 30 cards in the set, 7 HOF'ers including Branch Rickey.

They were all glued to scrapbook pages. Also glued to some pages were a few Wheaties box cutouts.

I was hoping to go today but opted to work O.T. instead.

I may, (but not likely), attend tomorrow, mainly due to the fact it is likely mostly hockey, especially with the big UD RC hockey release.

Sunday, my son has hockey in the morning himself (I'm the assistant coach/trainer) so I likely won't be going then either?

How was the crowd today, and was there much baseball, mainly 52 Topps available that you seen?

[MartyFromCANADA]

There was not much baseball at all. Vintage or modern. I wasn't particularly looking for 52' Topps, but someone did have a low grade Mantle. As for the rest of the set, I recall seeing some, but nothing that you couldn't get on eBay , and probably for a better price.

It was pretty busy. Must have heard the name Austin Matthews a thousand times today. Got annoying, what can ya do.

Cut a deal with an ebay seller for this Marquard today. This makes my 49th T206. Im making very slow progress on collecting these but I am really enjoying it. Now if only the price of N172 would go down to about forty bucks each :( I can't seem to get off the ground collecting those.

So would this be the rookie as the Zeenuts have him as a minor leaguer?

Nice pick-up on the Metropolitan Studios Cardinals, Dave. BTW the Dizzy Dean is a rookie too.

[Stampsfan]

So would this be the rookie as the Zeenuts have him as a minor leaguer?

One would think that would be the theory. This set is from 1936, and therefore predates his 1938 RC.

There have been a few auctioned off through REA over the years, if you look at their past results.

[rustywilly]

Thought this was a cool pinback. I had never seen it before. It has the same images as the Cameo Pepsin 1897 Toronto pin but set up completely different with the images of the players around the old Canadian Flag. It is about the same size as a Cameo Pepsin pin as well...

[ValKehl]

I got this 1933 R306 Butter Cream card of catcher Herold (incorrectly spelled Harold on the card) "Muddy" Ruel with the scarcer "Sept. 1st" back in last week's MHCC auction to join my example of this card with the easier "Oct. 1" back. Ruel spent the best 8 years of his 19-year MLB career with the Washington Senators, and one thing he is remembered for is scoring the winning run in the 12th inning of the 7th game of the 1924 WS, which provided Washington with its only WS Championship to date (maybe next year the Nats will win it!) and made WaJo the winning pitcher in relief. I love it when a pickup fits both my type-card collection and my collection of 1924 Senators players.

[GregMitch34]

Greg, I am truly jealous. Beauty, and with what the T211 Manush went for in LOTG last night, I'm sure that is one valuable investment. I have around 25 T211s, but nothing comes close to that baby!

[edjs]

.

Brian,

You got that at a great price. I thought about making a run at it if all my other lots got out of reach, but I ended up getting two, glad you got it.

[GregMitch34]

Yeah, I was shocked I got that Red Sun at "decent" price. I guess it's what you dream about in big auctions, that a piece you want just slips through cracks with so much else to bid on. Usually you hope and bid and then get crushed, but once in awhile you luck out. And luck is the key word.

[Brian Van Horn]

Brian,

You got that at a great price. I thought about making a run at it if all my other lots got out of reach, but I ended up getting two, glad you got it.

Ed,

Thank you. I was debating going after the D380-1 Pattee, but I didn't want to get into a bind. Congratulations on your two wins!

[edjs]

Ed,

Thank you. I was debating going after the D380-1 Pattee, but I didn't want to get into a bind. Congratulations on your two wins!


The Pattee is cool, I love the ovals, but I love that name "Don Carlos Ragan." These were my wins, I already have Kelly in a Brunners and Marten, so now I need the Weber and General Baking:

[pete zouras]

Greg,

Congrats on picking up a beautiful T211.

I'm still waiting for one of the few catcher cards in the T211 set to add to my collection.

Very nice photo Leon, I love the old timey color on those!
Here are two that I am stoked about getting. My first Tolstoi (happens to be a portrait I needed!) and my first Johnny Kling for my back run! Hooray!

.. Wheaties premium ; postcard-sized but blank back ; Just bought the raw one at the bottom ; Irving "Jack" Burns of the St. Louis Browns ; five fewer tack-holes and an ounce less nicotine film...

..I can live with the thumb crease...

....a master set of Tex Carleton cards shouldn't take eleven years....the postcard-sized '34 Gold Medal Wheaties premium , from when he pitched for the magnificent world champion Cardinals , is dwarfed by the Rochester Red Wings Team-Issued ; that's from 1931 possibly 1932 ? Somebody out there knows. Very large item and obviously difficult to keep in decent condition for all these years. He famously pitched a no-hitter in 1940 as a Brooklyn Dodger.

..Top card is his 1936 issue from National Chicle , the "fine pens" set ;the horizontal is the new pick-up....the designation for the 1936 set is "R313" ....the Gold Medal Foods set is from two years earlier and is known as "R313A"...go figure...I love this hobby...

I am planning to work with 1880nonsports (Henry) to separate them from the paper backing and then may grade them. I ran the pops at SGC and PSA and the rarest one by population is Slocum, who only has 5 graded between both TPGs. Myers is the next lowest at 9 total. Who got the Buck Ewing from the same seller? He still has some Quadrupeds and Birds in large format for those nonsport collectors among you.

I met up with Henry earlier this week and separated out the cards. Most had little to no back damage or residue after soaking! Enjoyed meeting a fervent card collector in the area.

Henry bought 6 of the cards, so I still have 10. Probably going to go to PSA on my next renewal submission. Here are some others I bought this month:

Not a card, but certainly a 1 of 1. Picked myself up a Fiancee on Thanksgiving. Took her to The National with me this year, and she survived, and even bought several cards for me. That was the final test. She passed with flying colors.

I have had some good pickups lately after a slight dry spell

[Leon]

That ring would have bought a nice Ruth :) .... Congrats....if she is supportive of your affliction she is a keeper!!

It could've bought a multiple "cornerstone" cards. :(

Thanks Leon. Absolutely. She's my best friend. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

[edjs]

A couple new E104s and my first N321 (I've wanted one since I first saw these a few years ago). Thanks Jeremy for working a deal on the Shea, and Chris for a smooth trade.

Dan, great card. That card has always been my favorite T206.

Stumbled across this one

Thanks for the responses everyone! I guess whining in the other thread paid off :o

Congrats Kyle!

I've added a few fun ones lately. Found a 2nd handcut SC 350/30 Matty portrait, upgraded my Marquard OM, Bradley P42, and this sweet McGraw.

Excellent pickups. Particularly fond of the Bradley (Cleveland fan here).


And thanks everyone!
