Shame that the new July pickups thread was relegated to page 2 on only July 6th.

So here's a bump.

Newly back from SGC this week. Purchased many moons ago, including the Gordie Howe in July of 1997:eek:

My first submission since SGC went to the single digit, huge font numbering

You need to change your setting to 80 posts per thread, not 10. It is done in the USER CP (Control Panel) on the left side of your screen. Then you won't hit the second page for many more days.

Just look mid screen to your left right now, for the words USER CP. in the dark blue line..click on it then go to EDIT OPTIONS then go down to Thread Display Options and change the 10 posts per page to 80 posts per page. Then hit Save Changes at the bottom. All done.

Thanks to Bryan for pointing this one out to me on eBay. A new advertiser that wasnt on the master list and is from Pittsburgh, Pa. Whats cool about this advertiser Kaufmann is they have been in business since the 1870s!

Jay,

Sorry to disappoint, but Kaufmann's went out of business in the early 2000s. The Kaufmann's clock is still around, but the store, which became Macy's in downtown Pittsburgh, is being converted into condos and shops. The other connection to the Kaufmanns is the famous residence Fallingwater.

Very nice, DJ! You are catching up with me with respect to my Jennings back run. As you know, Davis & Jennings are in the same sets. But, I don't expect to ever see, much less own, a Croft's Candy of Jennings with the red back.

Val, I hope all is well. I will miss you at chantilly - I assume you are going, but unfortunately I am not. We need to get another trade-party/get together rolling. Maybe in he fall.

07-10-2019, 09:15 PM
Ryan, I'm still breathing and kicking, so I guess all is good! Yes, I'll be at Chantilly. I hope you will put together another collector get together - if you arrange it when the fall Chantilly Show takes place, I think you'll get the best turnout - to entice you further, I'll even bring and show you what I obtained in trade for a certain T214 card! :)

The red is definitely light, but the colors in his face, on the jersey collar etc. don’t seem to be faded, so not sure what accounts for the light red...

If these are phone pics, you need to make a subtle change then save it when it is in the correct position on your phone before you upload it.

Mine phone is the same way.

Very nice card! :)

07-12-2019, 11:41 AM
Thanks Ryan, and congratulations. That's an amazing card. That's the difference between you and me: you get a Cobb Back, and two months later you can buy that Ruth: I get a Cobb Back and I have to live like a college student for the next two years.

Now excuse me, my Ramen Noodles are ready. :(

Brian L - nice Kell and Berra rookies! I love the Tip Top set, sandwiched in between WWII and the '48 Bowman sets! Lots of "earliest" cards in that set.

Oh, and I'll just pretend I didn't see the Cobb/Cobb back and Ruth rookie that were complete mic drops, which completely obliterated any chance that anyone will want to bother posting in this thread for the rest of the month. There's always next month...looking forward to the August pick-up thread already.

Not pre-war but thought the pre-war crowd might find this type card interesting. Never seen another of them. It's some kind of Dominican League issue of Matty Alou. The seller described it as being issued by an ice cream company called Poly out of Santo Domingo:

Anybody else ever make something like this?

Since they're in the public domain, I used the higher res images that can be downloaded from the Library of Congress collection, and then used Zazzle.

Thanks Steven and Steve.

Regarding those T Shirts, dealer Stan at Chantilly (dont know last name, but he has great taste in vintage cards) has a 1933 Goudey Lajoie T Shirt, and I complimented him on it today. Not sure I would wear it out on a Saturday night (or even a Wednesday night), but its a great shirt/concept for a card show and especially for a dealer; lets people from far away know what kind of stuff you may have at your table.

I am not aware of an image of the uncut strip if there is one it’s probably a color photocopy in some collectors archives.

I think the best way to spread the word about the current crisis in the hobby is to create a bunch of really cool T-shirts and sell them by the thousands at the national. It would not be hard to do and make a lot of money at the same time.

This scarce Worch Cigar pick up from eBay might not interest any of you, but it sure excites me because William/Billy "Pinky" Hargrave was on the 1924 Senators championship team. I collect cards of all the players on this team, and picking up a scarce card of a hardly-known player excites me just as much as if I had acquired a T206 BL 460 of WaJo (well, almost as much!).

Congratulations Scott! That was me on the other end of that extended bidding, bidding war. I am glad I gave up when I did and that it went to such good use. I respect the hell out of back and color runs, and that one is awesome. Enjoy it, and dibs if you ever look to sell (the card or the whole run!).

I was pretty happy to add this Baltimore Newsboy Speaker - he's got about 7 friends waiting to welcome him to his new extended E94 family......

Congrats, that's a great run! Very nice card

Thanks! Glad you bowed out when you did - although I was ready to bid higher if needed, I actually fell asleep after entering my last bid (not a ceiling bid either). Woke up at about 2 AM afraid that I missed out, and happy to find I got it.

Will certainly keep you in mind should I ever do anything with these - I can now forgive myself for not getting one of these 5 years ago when I had a chance!

Fantastic back run. And I know that feeling about missing out and chasing the card for years. :(

Picked this one up last night, paid too much but couldn't resist the centering.

Scott, I'm loving your Tris Speaker back run! IMHO, non-T206 back runs are just as cool as T206 back runs - dare I say it, perhaps even cooler! :)

I love this! The colors are terrific - and the player wasn't too shabby. :)

If I am ever lucky enough to score an orange E94 I will probably start a back run.

Heritage pick-ups. A brown old mill, two brown Lenox, a tough tinker AB 460, which completes a back run (see link below), and a yellow chance for a potentially new bank run

Huge pickups congrats. The rare backs were mostly way out of my league. I was happy just picking up a few postcards that don’t come up that often.

Those cards above are awesome thread killers as they have almost no equals. :) and are off the charts!! Even the more mundane (kind of like me) are great cards. Congrats to all and thanks for sharing!!

Happy to pickup the Hinchman from a fellow board member and add to PC collection and happy to have picked up the Boston Doves season pass (a little out of my collecting realm, but it was the Braves franchise so wanted to try and grab it).
