Me neither but that is sweet

.

Thanks to an awesome fellow Net54 member for contacting me after seeing my E105 list in the 2016 wantlist thread and allowing me to add #26 to my collection:

Awesome Daryl!

Thanks, DJ!

Those are sharp looking Turkey Reds! Nice.

Thanks Dave! Got a great deal on them from Craig (can't remember his last name), who always sets up in the back right corner. I bought a beautiful T3 Tinker from him at the last show. Sounds like he's getting them from one collector who is slowly letting them go...

Words can't explain how ecstatic I am to have this in my possession.

Please tell the rest of us how you pulled that off. :D

I literally was on the board when she asked me what I wanted and all of a sudden I saw the Cobb and I said "this" and she said OK and gave me the $$. That's why I love her as much as I do.....:p

Congrats on the card! Ed Walsh t205 autos must be really rare.

Always happy to add an OJ player on the "Very Scarce Cards" rarity list in the The Photographic Baseball Cards of Goodwin & Company by Miller, Gonsowski, & Masson.

T202 Ames/Meyers Too Late for Devlin
 

Picked up another T202 for my Chief Meyers T202 run. Now have 6 of the 10 T202s with Meyers. It's my first red Hasson back.

June Pickups
 

My first Crackerjack (PWCC). Loved the centering.

Also picked up Brown and Evers and Joss Portraits for my HOF portrait run

F Scott?

Nicely done, Rhett! :)

Nice...... I'm a centered card lover myself...
Dang OCD I picked up somewhere. Even low
grades of 1 or 2s look good when centered. I'd
Rather have a low grade centered than a
Mid grade uncentered. Of course there are exceptions

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe :D

Nice card.

One of my June pickups.....
 

Nothing exotic......just loved the colors, rosy cheeks and centering.

Net54 Deals
 

Sometimes you can strike some really great deals through the B/S/T. Thanks Raymond for these - they are awesome!

Nice........ I've always liked that Keeler
in the clouds pose

Paul-

I'm glad they went to both an appreciative collector and a Net54 member...

('making Wall Street richer')

...and that I did not loose too much money on them.

- I spent the proceeds on another Ty Cobb and another Honus Wagner

Thanks,
Raymond

LOTG pick up. I have always loved this pose.

An impulse buy which will probably end up as trade bait.

Nice job Rhett

T206 lovin'
 

One of my favorites from the Monster. Just pretty.

Picked up this Wheat Polar Bear.

just picked up a 1909 T206 Rube Waddell in poor condition for $35, no pics yet, but even in it's "meh' shape, I thought $35 was a steal, never thought I could afford a Waddell card!

Via the B/S/T. Thanks, Scott!

T213-2
 

Here's a 1916 Coupon Frank Chance LA batting and the 1915? Coupon Ed Reulbach 'Pittsburgh'. Reulbach played for Brooklyn Nats (also shown) in 1914, Newark in 1915 and Boston in 1916. I could not find any evidence of Reulbach playing for the Pittsburgh Rebels, nor did I see any names on the Rebels roster that the printers may have confused him for...Maybe he had intended to go to Pittsburgh but ended up in Newark. Anyway, both of these cards are hard to find...

Was happy to win this Goudey premium recently at auction at what appeared to be okay price--but shocked when it arrived in the mail to find that it was so oversized, in the biggest SGC holder, not the medium-sized one. Stupid me. Frankly, don't know why they don't sell for even more, considering the Babe, the shot, the size and the Goudey. And this one has a great front, grade reduced by the usual funky back. http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1466716729

Miniature Version
 

Nice Ruth Premium. Here's the mini colorized version. The focus, registration and color sold me on this one even though the centering isn't ideal.

Via BST - thanks Scott!

Nice Ruths

Here are a couple from this month

Wanted this one for a while

And finally...

Ruth

Awesome card for the grade!

Looks like my bid held up on this one. Prime example of buy the card not the holder:

Thanks Sam. Packs, i agree 100% i love your cobb. Would buy it in a heartbeat. Give me a beautiful card at a good price any time. While big bucks are being spent on high grade cards, I think people are realizing that a gorgeous card holds a premium regardless of what the flip says...particularly with pre-war cards. Congrats!

One more SP

Some recent additions to my collection of rookie cards of the top 100 players in MLB history (according to my own algorithm). These are #30, #34, #89, and #99 on my list, plus one more card for my Glazner player set (7 down, 4 to go).

Thanks to LOTG and Goodwin, respectively, for these two additions to the collection
