I got this in REA. It's the only back that I was missing, other that the Cobb that I will never own. I also have 522 fronts, and will never get a Wagner or Doyle Nat'l. So I guess I've pushed the T206 set as far as I can. But there's always back runs and subsets and unrelated cards that I want. :rolleyes:

Still, it really feels good to "finish" the T206. :D

Didn't expect to win this one, and may have to flip it, because it's probably too nice for me:

Dave, nice card, but why is Felsch swinging left- handed?

This is also a particularly interesting card in that, although identified as Hap Felsch, the image on the card is actually that of Ray Demmitt

Sean- congrats! I gave the Brown OM a small run early on, but let it go. Glad you got it!

(PS- a very close friend of mine got the Cobb/Cobb, so if you ever want to try to complete the back run, I think he'd sell in a few years).

Chuck- great stuff!

That is a great card Dave. It's funny how there are several Black Sox players on cards which show other people, i.e. the Buck Weaver card which shows Joe Tinker. One has to wonder what the price would be on a Joe Jackson listed card which featured another player, given how few Jackson cards there are in the different sets.

Grabbed this OJ. Has the much less commmon CF designation, which I had been looking for for a while.

oldjudge
11-02-2018, 04:49 PM
Nice Tiernan. The CF designation was only on his scarcer 1888 cards.

judsonhamlin
11-02-2018, 07:58 PM
Thanks. I've got a pose run of his cards and a few of both 1887 and 1889 on the same pose but this was the first CF card I've seen for sale.

oldjudge
11-02-2018, 08:09 PM
New Poses: As can be seen from the Old Judge cabinet (new pose 457-7) the ball in the original photo taken of Tiernan was quite high above Tiernan. Goodwin "moved it down" to create the pose in the N172 (457-2), and "moved it down" still further to accommodate the Gypsy Queen banner in new pose 457-8.

judsonhamlin
11-03-2018, 07:22 AM
Gee, thanks... I will guess/hope that 7 and 8 have not (yet) been seen on his N172 cards. Otherwise, back to the drawing board

I picked up my first Bregstone PC in the recent REA Auction. Always wanted one of these. Sadly, I'm guessing the numerous Bregstone's in the auction came from Brian Campf's (SportingOregon's) estate. He had quite a collection of these rare cards (amongst many others). It'll be interesting to see if somebody breaks up the 20 lot group and the 17 lot group that were in the auction.

Agreed. He has been missed. He helped get me started on my Helmar Stamps collection. He and I talked on the phone for quite some time to discuss the set (and other projects) back in 2013. I assume we'll see his complete set of Helmar Stamps (including actresses) and many other sets he dabbled in during the upcoming REA auctions. His postcard collection is/was simply outstanding! He left us way too soon and it scares me that he died at my current age. Not cool!

The Helmar baseball and actress sets were in the latest REA auction. Hoped you'd won the baseball to complete your set.

My first Lionel Carter but a coincidence since I was just looking for a M116 Chance. The back could use a soaking but not worth ruining the provenance.

Very happy with my pick up of this Cobb in REA, Lot #315. I chose it over other Red Cobbs in the auction for its clarity in his eyes and face....(and of course its affordability!) Unfortunately, my scanner doesn't do the card justice here though!
Feels great to try to get back into the hobby a little after a long time being away from the board!

One of my favorite cards from any set, any era when it comes to pure aesthetics. I do believe, and I'm sure this has been discussed somewhere on the forum before, that the Jordan in question is actually Tim Jordan. The cool back stamp was an added bonus.

Here is Studio Proof (REA win) and N333 of Joe Driscoll, pitcher for Albany Daily Press and Knickerbocker Newsboy Team. This is the second time I've been able to match a Studio Proof with N333 card. The images are light but I'll take what I can get.

Leon- I think that cdv was a steal. It has to be one of the best, if not the best, game action cdvs I have seen. It has players, an umpire, a scorekeeper, and is a close up shot. Tough to top.

Tim Kindler
11-12-2018, 08:47 PM
Leon, Great to be back after some time away from the hobby. I love that CDV of yours where the Umpire is just casually leaning on a ring bat!!!

Rhotchkiss, Thanks for the compliment on the registration and focus of the image on my Red Cobb.

Greg, Love your Fantastic 4 of your Cobbs. Although technically low grade, they look fantastic and register exceptionally well for the grades!

Can't wait to see more fantastic stuff pop up throughout the month in this thread.
Best Wishes,

Thanks John! I don't understand the grade either. There is a light wrinkle on the reverse in the center (maybe a 1/4 inch?) that does not go through to the front (although it can be seen on the front jersey in certain light, including the pic I shared, due to the staining and the thinness of the card). Other than that its sharp all around sans the staining. At the end of the day it presents VG/EX, and I couldn't have afforded it even if it only graded PSA 2, so I guess I owe PSA a big fat thank you for the conservative technical grade.

Dan congrats. Special card. I agree though, what makes it a 1? At least pwcc recognizes it was certified special!!

Thank you sir!

WOW! It seems November was a great month and it still isnt over! This was my latest pick-up and by far my highest graded CJ of my collection. I was determined to complete a low grade set and on this night I had a few to many adult beverages at the point the auction was ending - just glad someone didn't have a higher bid as I was determined to get it in my inebriated state. $1,200 isnt to bad is it... lol

I got my first and only Novelty Cutlery PC today. The card is dated to 1907 for some reason even though this specific shot is believed to happen in fall of 1909 and pretty widely accepted as fact so I cant imagine these were produced in 1907. Also a couple more p/us from the fall I don't think I ever posted.

Thanks everyone, have all of the cards out tonight.

Hank - Great book, just about finished with it an have thoroughly enjoying reading about your grandfather. The card is not new to the hobby, it use to be Leons I believe. I believe there are four from this production know, with the blue tint, and then the single 1907 PC.

Leon- I think that cdv was a steal. It has to be one of the best, if not the best, game action cdvs I have seen. It has players, an umpire, a scorekeeper, and is a close up shot. Tough to top.
Agree with Gary, great card, Leon. I should sell my collection and start over.

haha, agreed on the pose! Trying to decide how deep I want to get into 1914. literally started just 2 weeks ago, have a Matty on its way in a 9 as well to match the Baker and Honus. Need to decide if I'm building the set, or just going for Key guys, or if I'm just done after dipping my toes in.

I found that the Game Sets are a relatively inexpensive way to get the bigger stars...the 1913 National Game Grover Alexander, for example, is listed as his RC.

This arrived today, my first win from an auction house. I'm tickled with it, as I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get one in my budget, especially presenting as nicely as it does. But it really is one of the grails for me, and I made sure to have my two young sons open the box with me. Moment to remember!

Sorry it's not a card like the rest of the posts, but there are so few people who care about the 19th century guys. By the way, here's a page that features that autograph (https://www.cooperstownexpert.com/player/gus-weyhing/). Hope you take a peak.

Great pickup, Jim!

I've been a fan of Gus Weyhing ever since reading about him in David Nemec's books and then connecting/collaborating with Gus' nephew Ed to get the Library of Congress to change their mislabeled picture of him (they had it labeled for Gus' brother John) in their database.

Ed would have really enjoyed seeing how reverentially you treated it, too!
