Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>I have been way, way behind on my scanning. Pick ups since about the first of the year:<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204496983.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497003.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497023.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497045.JPG"> <br /><br />This one is Maud Nelson - a pioneer in women's baseball. I was really glad to get this one - hadn't seen it before:<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497062.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497114.JPG"> <br /><br />And maybe my favorite of these, this one from Joe Jones who gave it to me for free because he thought I'd like it and it would fit my collection. Free. Nothing. Just to be nice. Thanks so much Joe.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1204497340.JPG"> <br /><br />Joann <br /><br />(No edit - just copying to post on Memorabilia side)

Posted By: <b>Shawn Chambers</b><p>My FIRST T3! I've about worn my eyeballs out staring at it, too! I've always known the dimensions, but it seems so much bigger in real life! Will not be my last because now I finally understand why people love 'em so much! Yes, I'm still excited!<br /><p><br /><center><img src=http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/3437742/aview/1t3chase.jpg></center>

Posted By: <b>Ed McCollum</b><p>I just haven't had the opportunity to bust the first one out of its protective PSA holder to scan yet. This one came from Matt Liebowitz, via eBay.<br /><br /><a href="http://s150.photobucket.com/albums/s81/T206ster/?action=view¤t=037_BergenB_Batting.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s81/T206ster/037_BergenB_Batting.jpg" border="0" alt="037 Bergen"></a><br /><br /><br />I did miss one earlier this month, but not without Art trying to get ahold of me first. I just didn't have access to e-mail in time to see his message, and the auction ended before I got to see it. But I have contacted the buyer, who is going to let me know if he will part with it or not.<br /><br />If anyone out there sees any, knows of any, owns any with McCormick's rubber stamping on the back, please let me know. Thanks. Ed

Posted By: <b>DMcD</b><p>Had been looking long and hard for a nice Matty portrait. Thanks, Steve Y. Picked up the Weaver and Mays from Mile High. Guy's gotta have a Weaver, right? Bransfield is an upgrade. Herzog and Schulte were purchases for the sheer hell of it. Thanks, Bill T. and Barry S. Won a beaut of a card on Goodwin last night; will post it when it gets here. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/T206_Matty_portrait.jpg"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/1952Bowman_Mays.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/T207_Weaver.jpg"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/T206_Herzog.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/1915CJ_Schulte.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/Pickups/T3_Bransfield.jpg"><br /><br><br>-
