Latest Croft pick-up

Wowzer Bob. That red back Croft's Candy is deluxe!! Lionel Carter is a bonus.

Bob
 

If I didn't have a dupe of that one he'd still be mine. Great horizontal and a bright red Crofts back....Nice combo imo....:)

7TH HRK catcher
 

I felt fortunate to pick-up one of the 25 Home Run Kisses last night.

I won one of the Harry Price Home Run Kisses cards, which I felt presented better than the other one that sold for an identical price later in the evening.

I'm curious if any other board members picked up any of the group?

Here's my Harry Price HRK:

My Price HRK arrived today and it really presents well with my other 6 HRK catchers:

Here's my latest pickup, courtesy of one of my favorite sellers, Wayne Varner of Shoebox Cards ...

Thanks to Hank and Rick for the cards.

Another from Frohme. Got 17 more coming from Scott w 6 AB backs and others I needed for my set. Thanks for all the help with the back set as well as my registered set.

Andrew - keep it up, you'll have the set complete in no time!

Yeah till I hit the SP and rest of the HOF'ers roadblock. Oh yeah I forgot I have to get Hoblitzell No Stats in a 4 also. :eek: I hope to have that one by the end of the month:rolleyes: IF my GAI 8 Johnson crosses and makes the auction block. That is the plan anyways. Always shootin for the moon. I will have it and the 17 others posted when I get back from Vacation at the end of next week.

Cards from Scott B
 

Here are the 16 raw I got. I hope they all make 4's or higher;)

More from Scott B
 

And #17

Lots of great stuff already... and it's only the 1st.

couple of early Zee's

A baseball thread.............Great additions Andrew, I'll try to send you a few more to keep this at the top. I see a couple 3's a lot of 4's and possible two 5's, but I don't grade for a living.

Rawn

I hope they are all 4+'s because I paid alot for them. Very dissapointed if they are not.

Austin, Foxen and Wiltse Look like the #3's to me, but those are the only questions in the bunch.

Am glad Hurricane Season is almost pau
 

1. M116 Joss - Arrived this morning. Sweet, yeah? Bought from Yorkin on eBay. Consistently good seller.
2. 1919 Zeenut Gibson - Looks just like a Zeenut ought to. Thanks Dan B. on BST for burning rubber. You guys up in Canada, do you call 'em Zednuts? Just wondering.

Thanks Leon, I'm was happy to add some Frederick Fotos to the collection.

I wanted one with the ornate logo and one without. I'm also a sucker for the wierd teams (Joplin, MO) and I've always kinda liked Hick Cady & Sam Agnew.

Just got these in the mail today - two previously unknown Nebraska Indians postcards. Possibly one of a kinds?
