May Pick Up Thread

[Baseballcrazy62]

Picked up a handful of the T222’s. I will post the rest of them when I receive them.397551

[chlankf]

Added three more OJs to my Iowa collection, thanks to a board member.

Kenyon - Des Moines
Burks - Sioux City
Weber - Sioux City

[Rhotchkiss]

An unexpected Ebay pick-up. Thanks Andrew for the heads up.

[Bicem]

Love the Rube!

[charlietheexterminator]

Nice pick up Ryan. My upside-down pick up is from REA

[phikappapsi]

only 1 is baseball; but 3 pickups to start the month - pretty excited about them all.

[Rhotchkiss]

Thanks Jeff and Chuck - chuck, nice freak.

I am not a boxing card guy, but, Joe, that Jack Johnson is awesome

Thanks man. Appreciate it. I've not traditionally collected boxing either; but recently began to take an interest and it caught like wildfire. Such an interesting new niche that just feels fresh.

[bnorth]

Just picked this one up from a fellow member. My first T210 in a long time. Hopefully I stick with it and get the last few I need for the team set.

[ZiggerZagger]

Never owned a T202 before. Went for them to advance Player Collections, but have to say they're just great!
Pure enjoyment!

[familytoad]

I love the OBAKS.
Here is Curt Coleman, the first University of Oregon player to make the MLB when he suited up for a dozen games in 1912.

The best part about OBAKs is how they look so nice despite the technical grade.
I just got a lot more to add to my collection. Happy me.

[obcbeatle]

Nice Brian! I've been looking at Obaks via some of these net54 threads. Uh oh. That CAN'T be a good sign for my wallet :-) Anyway I agree, they are beautiful cards!

[Vintagecatcher]

Since picking up any new T210s had been very slow lately, I added another Red Munson to my collection. Couldn't pass up the nice condition and fair price.

Patrick

[brianp-beme]

From one Net54 Brian to another, with a Brockelman Auction intermediary. A M116 handcut proof blank back card of Charles Smith of the Braves.

Brian

[ahumes13]

A few new Cubs to join the PC!

[Jstottlemire1]

These are beauties Jason great adds. Really fine examples.

some recent additions

[KMayUSA6060]

Refilled the Cobb hole in my HOF project, and knocked out JL Wilkinson with this rare postcard.

Doesn't look like much of a slow down for pickups. Some nice cards by all. Glad to have got my one REA win in the mail this week.

Holy Crap Pete!! Congrats. Awesome.

I just picked this up in a private deal from a fellow art collector- one of Tim Carroll’s pieces:

[pcoz]

Thanks Ryan & everyone. Ryan awesome pickup, and congrats on all of your recent additions, incredible!

Adding a few to my HOF subset after a long hiatus.

[RCMcKenzie]

Great cards this month, gang. Picked up this Cy Young BL 350 tonight. Great format, gives me time to bid or not to bid. Also, grabbed some n172's, more on that later. Struck-out on all the T216's.

[Vintagecatcher]

Nice Irv Young, the pride of Columbia Falls, Maine!

Guessing that T206 is from 1909 since that's when Irv played for Minneapolis. Glad Heritage got the name right!

Patrick

[phikappapsi]

trying to finish up the Polo Grounds set quickly. Glad to nab this one last night in Heritage

[asphaltman]

Nice Broadleaf...I was looking at it myself. Happy to pick up the T217. I had struck out on all of them in REA so considered this a deal.

Ha!

[RCMcKenzie]

Thanks, Patrick and Dave. Nice MONO card.

The Irv "Young Cy Young" is from what they call "Print Group 2", thought to be released in the middle of 1910. "Young Cy" seemed to be going between Minneapolis and the White Sox between 1909-10.

[zsk]

just posted this in the mantle thread, but new to the forum and first vintage purchase - absolutely loving the look of this card!

[h2oya311]

Holy schmoly! What a start to May! I'm thrilled to have added quite a few nice HOF rookie cards to my collection over the past month and a half. Here are a few:

Picked this up last night for my Brooklyn type collection.

Recent Brockelman and REA winnings... E135 and Old Judge HOFer "rookies" + my first "World's Champions" E104-1
398764398765

Spiced up my quarantine a little and picked up wax boxes from each of the 1980's Topps sets, and some GPKs for good measure.
398769398768

And after seeing these mentioned a few times on the board, I decided to buy a 1912 Olympiska Thorpe PC.

Thanks Derek, I was eyeing that Hornsby btw. Would love to land a nice low grade example someday.

[aljurgela]

the ONLY baseball card that shows a HOF negro leaguer in a negro league uniform....

[rpz2]

First M101-4

[triwak]

the ONLY baseball card that shows a negro leaguer in a negro league uniform....

Amazing card, Al!!

[aljurgela]

Amazing card, Al!!

As far as negro league cards go.... but it is an "important card" due to the date (as close to a "rookie" as is reasonable to get)... the fact that he is in a Hilldale uniform and the dearth of material from the 1930s...

All and all, was quite surprised. I was bummed that I did not get the Charleston, but it was only a slight upgrade for me, so I bowed out after it hit 40k!...

O'well, we have to get em next time Kenny....

Al

[Rhotchkiss]

Jeff congrats, and Derek great Stengel.

Picked these up the other night from Heritage. The Lincoln Publishing is actually an almost complete set (19/20); I now have an extra Plank and Bender if anyone is interested

[RCMcKenzie]

Nice cards, Ryan. Did you happen to pick-up the Jackson, also?

[phikappapsi]

Ryan wins yet another month!

[Rhotchkiss]

Nice cards, Ryan. Did you happen to pick-up the Jackson, also?

Ha. No, I didn’t. But hopefully one day.

Joe, the past few Heritage auctions and REA had some crazy rare stuff of guys I collect; things you may not see for 5+ years, if ever (an E92 red crofts, let alone an HOFer, a near complete Lincoln publishing set, a t216 wagner with 1-2-3 back). So yes, it’s been a busy (and expensive) few months for me.

[phikappapsi]

Pure awesomeness (and a sprinkling of jealousy)

[yanksfan09]

Awesome stuff everyone. Love the HOF rookies Derek!

Plus e107 rube and the signed Ruth goudey , Ryan and Pete! Great stuff

[charlietheexterminator]

Ryan, awesome pick-up’s, I love the E92 Red Crofts

[Thromdog]

Picked up numbers 275 and 276.....5 to go. Pretty exciting to get this far!!

Anyone have EPDGs of Hummel, Tinker bat off, or Young with glove? Or low grade EPDGs of red Cobb or bat off Cobb?? Would love to see them!

Hey Patrick,

That's the rare refractor version of that card too! Wow! :D

[Mark]

the ONLY baseball card that shows a HOF negro leaguer in a negro league uniform....

wonderful card. There are a lot of ways to collect cards, but, in my opinion, it's the most enjoyable when your choice reflects real knowledge of the history of the game and of the hobby, too. very impressive card.

[mybuddyinc]

Many thanks to Bill B. for making Willett available. His is a back that has eluded me for many years ..... :) .......... As far a O'Leary goes, a Hindu is a Hindu, imo ..... ;)

[RCMcKenzie]

Working on the world's fastest Billy Crowell pose run. I picked up 2,3,and 4, in the last few weeks, and pose 5 is on the way. Looking for pose 1, plus upgrades and team changes. Crowell played for both New Orleans in 1892, and Houston in 1899. Also, included an 1892 Pelicans team cabinet with Crowell pictured top row 4th from viewer's left, that I picked up earlier this year...

[asphaltman]

Heritage package arrived....was happy ending up with this T217 after being shut out in REA on the Mono's.

You know, now you're going to wait years for pose #1, right? ;)

[RCMcKenzie]

Thank you, Kevin. Yes, that did cross my mind. It has happened before when trying to put a pose run together, but it is a fun pursuit. Luckily, I have plenty of other players to work on. I'll update my progress. Rob

I’m loving the Garbage Pail kids cards...I need to get a few to relive some of my best childhood collecting memories!

1985 First Series is the place to be for GPK cards!

[Rhotchkiss]

Great pick up Dan. Ben, congrats on getting 3 closer to a full set (that Brown is a great pose)

[itjclarke]

I’m loving the Garbage Pail kids cards...I need to get a few to relive some of my best childhood collecting memories!

As a 2nd grader in 1985 I basically forgot about baseball cards when Garbage Pail Kids were out and hot. Actually remember trading most of my baseball cards for GPKs, and was willing to give just about anything for 1st or 2nd series which were tough to get. Everyone in school had them and were sticking them all over desks, books, buses, etc. It's crazy looking back on how twisted some of those things were, but as kids we ate em up.

About 15-20 years ago I grabbed a couple each of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th series sets and some 1st series pack for a few bucks. Prices have gone up substantially since, with individually graded 1st series cards and packs getting several hundred bucks, and sets 1-7 just fetching $3500 in REA.
https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com/bids/bidplace?itemid=67558

During the virus shutdown, I added a binder and the 5th and 6th series. Digging them out of the closet and sticking them all in a binder was a great midweek/midday boredom killer.

[arcadekrazy]

Love the GPKs. I remover them fondly, along with wacky packages. Snagged me a set of GPK series 1 a few years ago.

[Thromdog]

Thanks Dave!!

[gabrinus]

Nice Wagner Steve...if I remember correctly that is pretty rare with a Never Go Out back...it's rare anyway...Jerry

[Rhotchkiss]

Wow Steve, congrats. That is a tough combo. Does that mean there may be a VE batting version of Wagner out there?

[honus94566]

Nice Wagner Steve...if I remember correctly that is pretty rare with a Never Go Out back...it's rare anyway...Jerry

Yeah they are hard to come by. On the batting pose, the SS is also a lot less common than the 2b. At least from what I've seen, I don't follow the numbers a whole lot.

Congrats on the pickup Steve, and thanks for the easy transaction. Pretty amazing, the set you have going...

Picked up couple schedules I'd never seen before. Insurance agency schedule, 1951, looks like it has Gehrig on it. The matchbook is a 1950 schedule.

The last of the T205 cards I picked up from Leon.

Nice T205's DavidM, here are a couple more from Leon on bst. Many high grade cards in all grades from that offering. For T205's, I think the SGC insert is a little better, as it does not obscure the border like the PSA holder.

Nice, T216, Steve.

Thank you so much to Dave (honus94566) for an awesome transaction -- I'm very excited to have added this one to my collection!

Steve, CONGRATS on picking up such a rare card. Now then, I ask that you kindly focus on finding me a Hugh Jennings card with this same Kotton "NGO" back for my Jennings back run. :)

I agree. The PSA cards might sell for more, but the black border on the SGC cards helps them look nicer and you can see the whole border.

Thanks, guys. This one is definitely exciting for me, and I love that I need not care about condition. The card looks great in person.

Ryan, yes, theoretically, Wagner can be found in both s.s. Pittsburg batting and s.s. Pittsburg throwing with a Virginia Extra back, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for any examples to surface. They may just be lost to history...

Hey, you found a VE Cobb so you may find the Wagner...make it happen:)...Jerry

[brass_rat]

Ha! We'll see, Jerry!

Steve - great Wagner!

I was able to knock out some big pieces for my M101-2 set this month, including Wagner, one of the super-tough double-size team cards (also with Wagner), and the big card of the set :) Also happens to be the first JJax card I've owned, very excited.

Also picked up this beautiful T3 Mordecai Brown from the BST.

Awesome Images!

Awesome Images!

Thanks Joe - Believe it or not, I consistently get more praise for the quality of the images I post than the cards themselves. I may not always have the best cards, but apparently I have the best scanner!

I am terrible with words :) I was trying to compliment the cards. The scan quality is nice but the cards are fantastic!

Some additions to the 1949 San Francisco Seals Tour of Japan collection. Lefty O'Doul, Frank Strick Shofner and Roy Partee. I realize they are occupation years cards, so I hope it's still ok to post here.

Thanks ... Tim

Great cards this month, gang. I picked up a few Buchner Gold Coins towards the set this month. A Porter, a McCormick and a write-in. Big thanks to Jeff for the Mickey Welch...

Under the wire. It's not true that I only collect n172's that no one's ever heard of.... After a spirited battle tonight, I won this Hofer with the hotdog insignia from our good friends at Sports.ha...
