Posted By: Bill KaselIf you don't mind Leon I'll kick off the 2nd half of November "Recent Pick Up" thread... <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1131718993.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1132065233.JPG"> The Meusel came from Rhys. The Willetts gets me one step closer to completion of the set. Seven more to go. Personally the Meusel is the 2nd best horizontal card I've seen. The pose is very unique to pre-war cards. It is only 2nd to the Zeenut Halla. The Zeenut Halla King Of All Horizontals Please Help Me Find One! Haiku ode to Halla....dang am I tired. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: Jeff LichtmanThanks for the kudos on the Goudeys. I'm so blown away by this set that I'm strongly considering trying to put it together card by card. These are the first two I've ever bought ....and I think they are just spectacular.

The manager of the greatest Cuban team of all and an early player with the Cuban Stars in the States. Pretty cool, I think. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1132344038.JPG"> --Chad

Posted By: Julie Vognar<img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/HugeKawa.jpg"> HUGE late '40s card of Kawakami (great slugger before OH) <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/MejiiU29.jpg"> 1929 card from Meiji University--no pro leagues yet there. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/BesshoM.jpg"> Mask of first japanese pro 300 game winner, Bessho. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/BesshoMh.jpg"> HALF-mask of same guy--much rarer (these masks are to be worn by a child--the eyes on the half mask are punched out, but mask appears not to hasve been worn. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/ghostar.jpg"> Ghostly card of Starffin--my favorite Japanese (O.K. Russian!) pitcher of the '30s and '40s. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/AJTstarfgr.jpg"> Starffin with his teammates before the All-Japan game against the SF Seals. And congratulations to Ryan Christoff for his pick up of a signed, game-used Isao Harimoto bat (only Japanese 500 Hr--3000 hit guy) Japanese game used bats are like non existant (except for Ichiro's, and other Japanese playing here--and even they're rare!)

Posted By: Julie VognarYours may be a bit nicer. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/BT206CobG002.jpg"> On second thought, I think mine is. I was thinking of the flaw in the green on mine, but I think the face coloring and the borders are better on mine.

Posted By: JimiYes, I like your corners much better. My green is more consistant throughout. It looks like there is some worn areas in your green background. How's the back? I don't know yet for mine because this came from Barry's auction. Jimi

Posted By: Julie VognarREA, like almost everything else. Wonder if it re-graded a 2 (or a--20? I get confused). I occasionally bought cards in holders, but always took them out. Most of them have re-graded exactly what they were before--those that I bought graded...with some notable acceptions.

Posted By: Richard1948 Baseball Back Menko set. I knew who the players were at one point and even printed out a list of their names along with their pictures. I will see if I can dig it up for you. I hope you enjoy them! edited to add: In Engel's 4th edition, Tetsuharu Kawakami is included in the set. He is a member of both the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame and the Meikyuakai!

Posted By: Julie VognarHe's in the set, but no card in the set has that number on the back (at least till now)--about 2000 higher than any other number. I e-mailed Gary, and he said it was 'strange." Didn't offfer to buy, or throw a price at me, so I guess it's just a weird sort of a double. I'll e-mail him again, when this busy day is over.
