Thanks to Buckler Cards for this Matty Cycle!...it's a nice companion piece for my Matty Carolina Brights.

Picked up these 2 tonight.

I can't beat those Old Judges that Joe picked up, but I did grab a nice item this week...my first (and only) Honus Wagner card!

It's a 1909 R.W. Johnston Studios Triple-Fold PC (postally used in 1909). When fully expanded, the PC width is too large for my scanner, so I showed only two of the panels (one of which includes Wagner, third from end).

Michael,
Those are two nice Mattys!

Picked up my first Mayo's Cut Plug. Been looking for an affordable one for a while, and this one fit the bill.

Broadleaf 350 back

T205
 

Trying to collect the T205 HOF subset. Here's a Collins mouth closed I just picked up...

+1 Beauties Michael!

Great stuff everyone !!

Thanks again for the great deal Mike (freakhappy), I've been wanting this card for awhile. Also glad to add another from the 150 series :)

Sincerely, Clayton

Nice card Clayton.
I hope all is well, Mike.

Thanks Mike !! :)

All is well with me, hope all is going well for you.

Drop me a line sometime, it'd be great to hear from you !!

Sincerely, Clayton

Pretty nice 1932 Fay Thomas Zeenut I picked up. It has his autograph on the back. Not sure if that is going to help it or hurt it. Any thoughts?

Thanks Jim & Chris! i suppose i might need to get a few more backs of this Matty pose now. could be a fun (yet pricey) run. :)

PS- "Hit" #600 for me on Net54. ;)

Pete - Great Mantle, congrats!

Like the Zeenut with the auto and tab too.

Nice Zeenut Aaron!

My first HOF player from N172 ...

and a couple of T210-7s

Nice cardboard everyone!

A decent "Sleepy Bill".:)

Nice Red Border pickups TBob and Rob.Great looking examples.Here is one of a few I picked up this week.

This sat on ebay for quite a while, with no takers. I finally did the BIN. The AZO stamp box on the reverse dates it to 1904-18. I'm thrilled with it.

(I'm reasonably certain that Andy did NOT hit a home run with this swing)

**will replace with better pics

Actually Andy should be 'out' as his right foot is on the plate. Nice RPPC.

Very nice pick-up!!

Compliments of the Tilt-A-Whirl Operator himself. Thank you John!!

A few from this month...

not here yet, but
 

It hasn't arrived yet, but picked this up on the BST! This makes #150/300 for my "ideal" HOF rookie card collection! I'm now 1/2 way there! The other 150 cards will probably require a reverse mortgage, a significant increase in salary, and a lot of luck!!

Nice pick-up, Derek and congrats on reaching the halfway point.

Busy month this month but got some good stuff capped with last night's T216

Awesome pickup Derek! I saw it on the b/s/t and it was calling my name. Congrats!

Rules Police
 

Technically, I think he'd only be out for stepping on the plate, if he made contact with the ball at the same time. With that swing, it's unlikely.;)

One card closer to completing my SGC graded Cincy T206 Set.

Thanks a bunch to Mr. Diamond

I enjoy buying undergraded caramels :D

Beautiful front to that Ames

picked up this Shibe park (Phila A's stadium) postcard. Its dated Sep 1 1913, and the writer talks about a game - Nats vs A's - and "Johnson" hitting a HR. According to baseball-reference, it was WoJo's 8th of the 24 he hit in his career and it came off of A's pitcher "Boardwalk" Brown.
