Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>A few recent pick ups. My first CJ's. I'm glad I got the Crawford raw - I can't believe how thin it is. Just a piece of paper, basically. Makes me understand more about these cards and their condition-sensitivity.<br /><br />Joann<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1167331444.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1167331483.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1167331519.JPG">

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>Yes Steve <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>, Ive given up on trying to figure out why they marked these down to a 40. They are both crease/scuff free, the Geranimo has a small brown spot on the back, thats it. If these are VG then Id love to see what a NRMT example looks like. In person they are even nicer than the photos show. They are the highest graded though, so I guess thats OK.

Posted By: <b>Brad Green</b><p>A Christmas card from the Grove family. Looks like Lefty is pitching to a right-handed Babe Ruth with Johnny Peacock doing the catching... I'm guessing it was sent out sometime between the late 1930's and the early 1950's. Please email me if you have anything similar to this from other players...<br /><br /><img src="http://www.bandkgreen.net/lefty_grove/christmas_card_net54.jpg">

Posted By: <b>robfouch</b><p>I took a chance and bought these in a raw lot for a very good price. I say take a chance because I'm always leery of cards this nice -- not the best at spotting trim jobs and such. But the guy said he bought them from the original owner in the 1970s. He paid $1 for the Cobb and 50 cents for Chance (wow!). In the end, he made a nice profit and I got some cards I otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford had they already been graded. Also in the lot are some commons that graded out at psa 6 (four of them), including two Old Mill backs. A a few PSA 5's. Don't have them in hand yet, but will post when I do. Sorry to go on, but probably the best deal I ever made. Very excited. <br /><br /><img src="http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m316/robfouch/t206cobb.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m316/robfouch/t206chance.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Steve M.</b><p>The card has a Napoleon back, right? Yet someone has covered over the "Napo" leaving just the "leon". Was that you or SGC?<br /><br />I thought you may have done it to identify it in case the scan got swiped.
