My buddy found the Croft Cocoa back I needed!

And now I have a complete e92 Bill Bergen back run!

Fantastic! Congrats....

Thank you !

Great back run. Would you expand into e101-102-105-106, e90-1, t216, etc -and color variations on the Crofts candy?

I have the e101 already and would love to find the t216 and mello mint. As far as I've been able to read there is no red or blue Croft candy in bergen

Bill Carrigan Colored S74 silk
 

Added another colored S74 silk with a new color.

You have a bad case of the runs. Nice Bergens

Nice run so far C-mack. I used to own a mello-mint, but sold it to a board member. I also have in my notes that a blue croft was offered for sale on the board years ago, but couldn't find the post again when I searched today.

Haha, thank you!

I'll have to check again , I got linked to a e92 Reference page and he wasnt checked on blue or red and I havent been able to find any pics ...but if there are blues I must get it lol

Here it is:

I know this was 2005, but I might have this guy's email if you want me to check and see if he still has it.

One of several that arrived today from the recent Hunt Auction...hard to choose a favorite.

Nice Scott, incredible auction.

It almost looks 3D it is so nice.

Damn the search is on

A few 33 Goudeys picked up today.

That 1933 Goudey Jimmy Foxx card is one of my favorites!

I'm ecstatic. I just acquired a 1911 T-205 "Home Run" Baker (Hassan back).

Net54 comes through again! I received a nice tip from a board member on this Miscut T210 I overlooked on eBay. Thank you Patrick it will fit nicely into my T210 freak coleection and is my favorite Series to boot!

Some recent pickups . . .

That Matty is fantastic! Great pick up David.

David, that Graham is the cat’s meow. You beat me to it by minutes and made the smart decision to close the deal. Congrats. If you ever look to sell it, I beg you give me a shot. AWESOME.

I haven't seen this version of Wambsganss before. Always thought Cobb was the only Holsum with two versions....

I finally bought a Joe Sewell card. I probably paid too much. Not the first time, nor will it be the last time either.

Not baseball, and I don't really know much about this set, but for less than $30 delivered, I couldn't pass this up.

1939 Eau Claire Bears pen
 

I enjoy collecting Eau Claire Bears and Eau Claire Braves items. This is a cool one.

Few "back upgrades." :)

Thanks to Luke for "finding" Crawford, and Adam for nice deal on Hinchman. :):)

Bradley has it's issues, but LOVE my Hindus ....... ;) (Tolsois also ;);))

Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

A little Cy. Small potatoes to some of you advanced T206 guys but it's the star of my tiny tobacco collection.

Tim, a potato is still potato (regardless of size) and that is one solid potato. Congrats

Dave, I think both Holsum versions have been found for several players. FYI, I have both Holsum versions of Sam Rice.

.

My pursuit of cards for my Sam Rice master collection reached the point a few years ago where acquisitions became few and far between. So, I was totally stoked when this rarity (1 of 1) arrived in the mail yesterday (Mike, thanks again!), and it also helped reduce my disappointment at being the under bidder on the card I most wanted in the REA Auction, this N370 Lone Jack card: https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...e?itemid=54711

Great Clarks, Val.

Four months I had to wait to get this back.

Congrats Val. I know that’s a big get for you. Sorry to miss you at Chantilly this weekend (I am in Disney with the family). Have fun

Val, great card -- I'm super psyched for you, congrats!

Here's my pickup from REA. It's pretty.

Nice one's, y'all. Here a few recent t213...

Great T213-1's. They don't come in much better shape than that.

+1

Dave, Ryan & Steve, many thanks for your kind words re my Clark's Bread - Sam Rice card.

Man, I love this whole page .... Just great variety of players, sets and type of cards.

I'm hoping to find any cards of Ira Thomas - Detroit or Philadelphia A's. (1908-1914)

He's from the town near me.

Uh oh. You might be spending more there then you would with REA. :)

Val - awesome grab on that Clarks! Glad you were able to work out a deal with Mike! And Mike, nice job getting all those Clarks graded...

Also, gorgeous '37 Feller rookie there! They don't get much nicer than that!

Great T213-1s!! New pick ups- one from REA and one private, both are brown old mills. Also picked up a t206 Matty portrait PSA 6 and a t206 Frank Chance Red Portrait, Brown Hindu PSA 6, but can’t get pics to post. Excited for the mail to come

Asphaltman - you are correct, Disney is a fortune. But making memories is priceless (or so I keep telling myself!)

T213s
 

Nice T213s Robert...Jerry

Thanks, y'all. I'm hoping the T213-2 Demmitt will catch-up in value with the Polar Bear backs.

Me too! (Here's mine for reference) :):

Thanks to REA, Luke and Todd H.

Nice one, Tom.

----------

Also, a BL460 is a good card to start a back run with. Great stuff.

Ryan, your growing brown T206 Old Mill collection is fantastic!

Michael, that's quite a Konetchy back run you have going!

The monthly pick-up threads are amongst my very favorites - always something neat to look forward to - nice pickups everyone.

t206 Chief Meyers
 

Wow. Some real eye pleases from so many. I'm inspired to be-start my own little project.

A few recent adds - misspelled Meyers t206 and Sweet Caporal pin.

Thanks guys, just got this one too...OK, so this might be slightly addictive. :)

Thought this was too good of a deal to pass up in REA

Tough T207

Enjoying these pick ups

Chantilly show pickup
 

Couldn't resist leaving the show emptyhanded.

Nice Pete. In our communications I was unaware of that image. I think you did very good. :)

And so do these guys.
