This one scratches two itches, West Coast type card and Ty Cobb in a seldom seen pose. Relatively rare with less than 25 known examples.

Just saw you posted the Ruth I had sold via Myslabs. I should have just posted in the BST, and could have saved us both some money.

Well, live and learn.

Hope you enjoy the Ruth!

[brunswickreeves]

Great pickups!

[mybuddyinc]

Recently, I have come to the conclusion that we "back" collectors are a odd bunch ....... ;)

Whereas most collectors are excited about Cobb, Matty, and Young (as well they should be), I am thrilled to add these two "lesser known" gentleman to my set ..... :)

546111

Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

[skelly423]

That Cobb used to reside in my collection a few owners back. Enjoy, it's a really scarce card.

This one scratches two itches, West Coast type card and Ty Cobb in a seldom seen pose. Relatively rare with less than 25 known examples.

[glchen]

I recently picked up this German Transfer stamp, pretty much just for the back transfer. I like these little oddities, and this one goes well with the other two cards that I have with back imprints.

[mrreality68]

Great pickups Gary

Love that Rittenhouse Ruth. I just picked one up in Red

[mrreality68]

Here are my December Pickups

The 1923/24 Exhibit is the rarer version of the 1921 exhibit Ruth. It has condition opportunities but I am proud to have it and the condition gives it personality

I posted this in the REA pick up thread that I started, but I really like this card. So in posting it here too.

[Casey2296]

That Cobb used to reside in my collection a few owners back. Enjoy, it's a really scarce card.
Thanks Sean, I remember it popping up on Tony's sight, then here, then eBay, and finally Heritage. Every time I went to pull the trigger it had sold. Figured it was meant to be in my collection since it kept coming up until I bought it.

[Aaron Seefeldt]

Recent pick ups, I’m grateful. Now it’s time to step back for a bit…

[CobbSpikedMe]

Daaammmnnn, Aaron. Nice additions.

[glchen]

Great pickups Gary

Thanks, Jeff. I love your pickups also. The 23-24 Exhibits is crazy rare, and I've always been a big fan for the Rittenhouses.

A bunch of other great additions for others in December.

Jesse, that's a beautiful US Caramel Ruth.

Aaron, incredible pickups. That Jax just pops.

[Yoda]

Aaron, I would call it a career step back in my case. What a stunning haul! An emphatic well done.
By the way were you the unidentified winner of the Power Ball? Just asking.

[Aaron Seefeldt]

Thank you guys. I had a bunch of consignments in the auction, had a big collection turnover.

[mr2686]

[brianp-beme]

I just wanted this Sanella I picked up recently to be the 14th (if I counted correctly) Babe Ruth card already posted this month on this thread.

I always liked this action batting pose...just wish Babe's head was tilted our direction a little more so we could get a better profile view of his noggin.

Congrats on the pick up and the run Ian.

[mrreality68]

Thanks Phil, Leon, Gary, Josh, Erick, Ryan, Chuck, and Chad

Effort of love as it is for most of us.

and Chad you are right some how I have remained Disciplined. Discipline and Focus is always my goal on my collection but

Reality makes it tough with all the great cards I see here on the forum. Makes we want to detour and try and get them.

Funny each month I say the New Pickup month was great and it would be tough to beat and yet ever month we seem to make another great month of pickups.

I really enjoy watching each collection grow and the diversity of collections out there.

and thanks to Leon for making this forum run smoothly to give us all a place to do this

[anchorednw]

Fortunate to pick up 2 more Abner Dalrymple OJs from Net54 members to run the total to 6 now.

[Leon]

Thanks for the kind words, Jeff. If all of our members were like you this place would be the friendliest place on the internet. And I agree with your sentiments. Every month I see cards on here that make me drool :). Being a type card collector, I can dabble in anything...so, no focus for me!!

Happy Holidays,

Well, it took me 4 years to complete (and sell) a 520 T206 Peidmont/SC (PB) set.

Now been working 6 years on a T206 "mid-tier" back set (still in progress ;))

So, I figure, time for something new ...... T207s !!!!

Just two favorites for now ..........

My first Ruth card, although this is nearly the size of an exhibit. Bought from a board member who was patient to let me get my financing in order. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221226/af2ca251c968a3b8932fc387b6c6ee3f.jpg

I’d be willing to bet that the missing corners were once holding thumb tacks pinned to a wall, and the card was yanked down.

Boston babe for the ruth collection.

Likely one of the last playing day ruth cards.

Great stuff everyone.

Very glad to add this low-pop card. Thanks Jeff T.

Congrats Joe,

Awesome Criger pickups!

Great examples...those National Cooper Plates are tough!

Got about halfway to another Dodger team set. Love how affordable 1940 Play Ball is if you’re not chasing Jackson, Teddy, or Joe D.

They are great cards in every way, as are 1939 and 1941. I am with you!

As a long time 1930’s collector, I had to go for my first R340.

Happy New Years. I was excited to cross this off my list.

I would be remiss if I were to not show this pickup also. The Zacher was from Huggins and Scott, the Becker was part of a trade with Phil for the two cards he posted above. Thanks again Phil, you are a really great guy. Sorry about the bad scans, I lifted them off the net.

Cannot wait to see what the New Year Brings for everyone’s collections on this forum

Greg, great looking Witmor Candy card of Wheat. Which back does it have? I love cards like this from obscure sets.

Horizontal back!
