In the immortal words of Britany Spears, “Oops I did it again”. Couldn’t pass up the opportunity to own this. Very psyched

Wow, congrats Ryan. Huge card.

Just got this from REA. Really psyched! Been after this for a while!

Bicem 11-09-2018 05:13 PM

Incredible, back to back gems!

Tom S. 11-09-2018 05:44 PM

Hard to follow up on a Ruth rookie, but I just got my first T206 blank back...

Nice going Paul. I was a distant underbidder on that one. :)

Great pick up Ryan. :)

Ryan and Paul, Congrats on those two awesome pickups

1925 Exhibit Cuyler PSA VG (mk)--not an expensive card, but not many graded out there (15 total, between PSA and SGC. A HOF rookie I've been looking for for awhile. Very, very underrated player!

Best to all,

Larry

Rhotchkiss 11-10-2018 04:34 AM

Thanks all. Paul, totally awesome pick up. Congrats. Enjoy that sucker!

Great job, Paul. I'm so jealous...

pherbener 11-10-2018 07:13 AM

Thanks Jason, Ryan and everyone! Love the blank back T206 Tom!

jthorst75 11-10-2018 11:40 AM

My first Lionel Carter but a coincidence since I was just looking for a M116 Chance. The back could use a soaking but not worth ruining the provenance.

Very happy with my pick up of this Cobb in REA, Lot #315. I chose it over other Red Cobbs in the auction for its clarity in his eyes and face....(and of course its affordability!) Unfortunately, my scanner doesn't do the card justice here though!
Feels great to try to get back into the hobby a little after a long time being away from the board!
Beautiful pick ups by everybody this month, as usual, love seeing everyone's passions on display!

One of my favorite cards from any set, any era when it comes to pure aesthetics. I do believe, and I'm sure this has been discussed somewhere on the forum before, that the Jordan in question is actually Tim Jordan. The cool back stamp was an added bonus.

Love that Ty Cobb art piece! Tim Carroll's N162s and T206s are gorgeous.

Here is Studio Proof (REA win) and N333 of Joe Driscoll, pitcher for Albany Daily Press and Knickerbocker Newsboy Team. This is the second time I've been able to match a Studio Proof with N333 card. The images are light but I'll take what I can get.

Amen to that, Joe!

Well done!

Finally picked up a green Cobb. Been looking for a low grade example with nice eye appeal for a while.

pherbener 11-11-2018 01:29 PM

Beautiful Cobbie Greg!! Looks great for the grade!

Thanks. This completes my t206 Cobbs. Tried to find nice low grade examples. Very happy with these

Rhotchkiss 11-11-2018 03:48 PM

Very nice Greg, congrats. Great foursome.

Tim, I remember that Cobb PB from the auction and thought it had really great centering and registration. Nice card.

Jason, great Lionel Carter, and a Chance no less. I have one of his and I think it’s real cool having cards from old-time collectors and knowing where your cards used to live.

Welcome back, Tim. We left the lights on for you. Great looking Cobby.
Here is a recent pick up of a cdv I like...

GaryPassamonte 11-12-2018 03:54 PM

Leon- I think that cdv was a steal. It has to be one of the best, if not the best, game action cdvs I have seen. It has players, an umpire, a scorekeeper, and is a close up shot. Tough to top.

Tim Kindler 11-12-2018 08:47 PM

Thanks
 
Leon, Great to be back after some time away from the hobby. I love that CDV of yours where the Umpire is just casually leaning on a ring bat!!!

Rhotchkiss, Thanks for the compliment on the registration and focus of the image on my Red Cobb.

Greg, Love your Fantastic 4 of your Cobbs. Although technically low grade, they look fantastic and register exceptionally well for the grades!

Can't wait to see more fantastic stuff pop up throughout the month in this thread.
Best Wishes,
Tim Kindler

Is it safe to assume....
 
That this is just badly faded/discolored and not missing some kind of color pass?

congrats on a terrific pickup. That one can be the cornerstone of any collection. great "poor" too

Gobucsmagic74 11-14-2018 12:45 PM

Thanks Joe! Nicest “2” I’ve ever seen and much nicer than most “3’s & 4’s” I own. Thank you PSA for making this possible on my budget!!

Ok, I'll follow the CJ Cobb with this grouping of awesome E90-1s. What do you think of that guys?! Now everyone can start posting pick ups again. Seriously though, sweet 14 Cobb!!

Dan, I know how long you have wanted a CJ Cobb, but you were patient and waited for the perfect one for you. It is a beauty. Congrats!

Dan, wonderful pick up. Congrats. But why did PSA only give it a 1? Outside of the obvious caramel staining, I cant spot any creases, wrinkling or paper loss. The color, registration, centering are all great. Looks like a strong vg to me. Anyhow, regardless, it is a stupendous card. Still chasing mine

Rhotchkiss 11-15-2018 10:58 AM

Dan congrats. Special card. I agree though, what makes it a 1? At least pwcc recognizes it was certified special!!

Zan 11-15-2018 11:04 AM

Happy to add a nice Batter Up

Thanks John! I don't understand the grade either. There is a light wrinkle on the reverse in the center (maybe a 1/4 inch?) that does not go through to the front (although it can be seen on the front jersey in certain light, including the pic I shared, due to the staining and the thinness of the card). Other than that its sharp all around sans the staining. At the end of the day it presents VG/EX, and I couldn't have afforded it even if it only graded PSA 2, so I guess I owe PSA a big fat thank you for the conservative technical grade.

WOW! It seems November was a great month and it still isnt over! This was my latest pick-up and by far my highest graded CJ of my collection. I was determined to complete a low grade set and on this night I had a few to many adult beverages at the point the auction was ending - just glad someone didn't have a higher bid as I was determined to get it in my inebriated state. $1,200 isnt to bad is it... lol

Bicem 11-15-2018 03:23 PM
