September Autograph Pickups
 

No one has started this thread so I guess I will , Every once in awhile I get something that's impossible for me to sell , This autographed George Carlin with the inscription "Everything I told you Was True" was one of them , A BIG shout out to Dave L. and his framer for accomplishing this for me , Did not trust anyone locally to do it and Dave got it done in grand fashion, Hangs next to my desk and impossible to have a bad day ...because everything he told me WAS true :)
Thank you !

Great autograph and framing job. George Carlin is a legend.....he defined a generation (or three)...

Paul Waner Signed B&W HOF Postcards
 

Picked up these two interesting Paul Waner signed HOF postcards. Interesting content on the back as he apparently was signing these for his aunt.

Just got a bunch of Cubs stuff from member Tony Q

Miller Huggins
 

Finally got it #246 thanks to Ron Gordon. Full JSA for whatever that is worthAttachment 159553

It may be good for lighting the coconut husks for the next pig roast on the beach.

These are pretty much my summer pickups, thought I'd photograph them after getting a vintage Banks ball (thanks, Tony!!)

I know the first batch are commons, but these three are on vintage Giles/Cronin balls, which I think is infinitely cooler than a new Selig.

Second group is some more vintage sigs, these are WWII guys.

Third group is some future HOFers that I've recently picked up.

Fourth group is some higher-level sigs for the collection.

My first signed T206

I guess I've started a new project...

Nice pickups Steven! '58's are my favorite cards to get signed!

Busy weekend, picked up my second signed T206 Rube Marquard ( a different pose), a 1934 signed Goudey Rookie of Hank Greenberg, and a signed T206 of Fred Snodgrass. Looking to buy more signed T206 cards, let me know if you have any available.

Congrats on the Greenberg. You outbid me on that one. I had it already but wanted to upgrade. Prices on all these are going up exponentially. Glad I got in at least a little earlier

Nice job Giovanni.
Where did you pick up the Greenberg?

Looks like it sold a couple hours after listing on eBay (just seeing this post, and also seeing it in eBay's "sold" listings). I had actually purchased it on Joe's Vintage site yesterday, but guess I was a little late, since they sent an email today saying they couldn't find it in their inventory. Bummed me out since I'd love to have a nice example of this card... I did have a few nice pick ups (will post once I receive them).

Pick ups added..

Cy
 

Super Duper pumped about my newest pickup courtesy of Mark C.
I am going to frame it with either a Kreindler photo or perhaps a nice Conlon.

Gorgeous Cy Young Mark! Congrats on the pickup.

Nice one, Mark!

I was watching that Leaf Dimaggio. Nice pickup at a great price.

Just won this pile of autographs. Especially looking forward to the Maris and hoping the 'early Mays' is actually early as it isn't in the photo.

48 signatures of baseball players on various slips and cards, some inscribed, with highlights including Joe DiMaggio, Gil Hodges, Roger Maris, Willie Mays (very early), Pie Traynor, Paul Waner, Zack Wheat, and Ted Williams. Additional signers are: Walter Alston, Luke Appling (SP and signature), Yogi Berra, Max Carey, Orlando Cepeda, Joe Cronin, Urban ‘Red’ Faber, Bob Feller, Whitey Ford, Frank Frisch, Charles Gehringer, Lefty Gomez, Hank Greenberg, Burleigh Grimes, Lefty Grove, Gabby Hartnett, Billy Herman, Elston Howard, Carl Hubbell (HOF card and signature), Ralph Kiner, Ernie Lombardi (SP and signature), Ted Lyons (ALS and signature), Heinie Manush, Joe McCarthy (HOF card and signature), Bill McKechnie, Sam Rice, Eppa Rixey, Phil Rizzuto, Edd Roush, Ray Schalk (ANS), George Sisler, Bill ‘Moose’ Skowron, Duke Snider, Bill Terry, and Bobby Thomson.

Scott - The Mays is in the photo (below Wheat and above Grimes).

Thanks Mark - I must be blind.

Well, that certainly is an early S.F. Giants Mays - probably 1961-62. When they said 'early', I was thinking New York.

Would love to see a scan of that Snodgrass! Signed T206s are an expensive addiction ...be aware.... BE-WARE!!!

:D

Autograph Album
 

Picked up a very cool autograph album today... It formerly belonged to a woman who was an avid autograph collector, die hard Brooklyn Dodger fan, and later a fixture at Shea stadium (used to bake cookies for the players)...

Thought I would share a few photos

a few more...
 

a few more...also has about 25 other hofers as well as a few toughies: Hugh Casey & Eddie Waitkus...

Wow Dave great pickup!!

Very nice pickup.

Super autograph album!

Beautiful album pick up Dave. It's amazing how bold the autographs are. Congrats. Are you going to keep it as a whole or break it up?
Drew

Added a nice one to my Presidential run. A beautiful William Henry Harrison autographed document from the War of 1812.

Nice, Mike. Just don't get it plasti dipped, too.

LOL, where did you see my plasti dipped ride? Are you on the Porsche board too?

By the way, the plasti dip is still holding up great!

PDip is good stuff. Takes some skill and the right equipment on large panels but for small things like emblems, wheels, grilles, etc you can't beat it. Worked well on my SRT8. Trading it in for a '15 WRX and dip came right off.

It's not just famous athletes with ugly signatures!

Who is that?

Not who is that but What is that?

Why am I not surprised that the a**hole can't write?

Current governor of Wisconsin.

So I shared some item from the Autograph Album I picked up over the weekend... I'll likely be selling most of the rest off , but decided to keep these 3... Got them back from the framer yesterday, so I figured I'd share...

Dave,
Those really turned out great. Congrats! ;)

Beautiful Dave!

A few more signed card pick ups... really happy with the Mantle.

Thats awesome!

Thanks Dave.

Damn, Mark! That looks awesome!

Thanks Scott.
It's amazing how much a Kreindler and a Conlon can dress up a plain old 3x5 with ink scribbled on it! :D

I wish I owned the originals of the painting and photo, but computer prints do quite nicely.

The Mick
 

Got this one back from my framer today... Really like the pose
