Wow, beautiful Tip Top!

Don't guess I posted this one

E90-1

Nice. You should try to do the set with green cabinets.

One I used own, green too. I wouldn't mind replacing it if anyone has one for sale? :) (only the card, I have a quarter)

Nice Jon.

That is one sweet looking card. Congrats.

Thanks Marty! Not sure how well the scan come over. George is toward the middle with his arms crossed.

I think you all will find this story quite interesting.

Samuel Howard Camnitz ......the "ace" pitcher of the 1909 season (25-6 with an ERA = 1.62) for Pittsburgh.

Howie's younger brother Harry Richardson Camnitz......I read some where that this T206 actually portrays Harry. Supposedly,
Howie told ATC to include this image of his brother in the T206 set.

Do you believe in strange coincidences ? Well, I do......these photos are of my 1st cousin's husband.....
Samuel Richardson (check-out the Camnitz names). Furthermore, brothers Camnitz and cousin Sam
grew up just a few of miles from each other in Kentucky.

So that was you!!
 

I think it was you and me most of the way past $1K!! I really wanted at least one - you clearly wanted them more!! Sorry I cost you a bit of $$ there.
Congrats! I obviously think they are great too.


For any of you western Pennsylvanians - I will be at the Monroeville show May 19-21 looking to buy Clemente, Prewar Pirates (especially interested in Wagner's, Tip Top's, Cracker Jack's and E cards) and a host of other things as well as offering a ton of great vintage for sale. Feel free to PM me to discuss anything ahead or just show up and say hi!

Very nice color. Most are faded to light blue and yellow or yellow/orange. Originally they were red and blue on the white background. Further most have quite a bit of creasing.
