March Pickups
 

Thank you, B&L:

Dang, Brian, it isn't March here yet!

Just picked up the Wagner from Jim here on Net 54. The Cobb came last month but I think they look better together. My first Wagner card and the new favorite in my collection

Brian - fast out of the gate, huh?

Jesse- that's a great pair you landed!!

Finally landed one of my favorite cards via Leon's auction, and with my usual focus on color and centering.

Congrats Greg

- That's one of my favorites as well. I picked one up last year.

Blankenship was the first Major League player born in my hometown.

what town?

Hoping to "Bake" up a good March
 

Thanks Leon and B&L:

e90-1 Wagner
 

glad you like the card Jesse; a real pleasure working with honest people like you. take care and enjoy the Wags.

Scouted and secured Walter Johnson for Washington.

Thanks Jim, it was a very smooth and easy transaction and I love the card.

Mathewson Postcards
 

Spent more money than I should have but am extremely excited to get these in the mail from B&L!

2 different shows in St. Louis today
 

Thanks to Tony at Monster Cards for the T206s and it is always good to see JD Heckathorn come on down for a visit - especially if he brings Fatima cards. I am glad that each of them braved the weather. I am still not sure why the show promoters decided to go head-to-head; it meant a lot of time in the car and less time flipping through books of commons for a 1958 set.

Love the Matty PC's

One more Matty from B&L. You see a lot of these around but I was surprised learn only "one higher" at both SGC and PSA pop reports....Centering makes this...http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1425257831

North of the border again:

Columbus, GA...home of Elmer Riddle, Frank Thomas, Tim Hudson, and Colby Rasmus (where they were born anyway)

Great OPCs Brian!

Another T207 catcher
 

Thrilled to have finally picked up this Ivey Wingo T207!

My first Lionel Carter card

My first Fatima and first Jim Thorpe.

love the e94 chance...JEff...definitely agree...the writing certainly improves that card in my mind!

That Giants piece is really cool. I wonder why no Matty? Gorgeous nonetheless.

I need to give big thanks to Sean B and his guy Deron for making this Cobby pick up such a smooth transaction. Won't bore you with details, but they were exceptionally communicative and accommodating.

Great Pick Ups so far!! Here is an American Tobacco Company building in 1908 with a streetcar in front of it. Even though the district didn't put out baseball cards it's still a neat postcard scene.

And a Carrillo matchbook cover to go with the Adam Hat Premium (not to size)!!

My first Helmar stamp. I liked the fact that the registration is so off that it has a kind of ghost image effect.

Tom C

Killed two birds with my first 1935 Diamond Star and Mel Ott

Nice card.

Thanks Joe

Here is a 1914 Pritchard stamp, not often seen, and two cards with tougher backs:

Dan - I love that Ott card...I have a PSA-8 on layaway right now...should have it in two weeks. I think that's the best Mel Ott card.

Pretty happy to pick up this Cobb from a board member...

My first Gehrig from his playing days.

Good looking card Dave! Especially for the grade. Congrats!

The Gehrigs from that 34 Goudey set have always been among my favorite cards. Congrats.

Tom C

A few T206s
 

Just a few more to boost that ol' Monster Number.

and a cool PCL
 

Had to have it.

Congrats Ray! I agree, I think it's his best looking card as well

thx mark.

After what seems like forever I finally crossed of one of the five Series 4 cards I have left to complete the set with this Brumfield. Im in need of Aylor, Benny, Canepa, and Daughtery for completion if anyone has an extra laying around somewhere:D Ill def make it worth your sacrifice!

1911 Ullman PC
 

Not in great shape, but only $7.50

These arrived today....

I keep losing auctions for groups like this, so I finally just bought a lot outright on eBay.

Starting my 8th Pre 1934 cubs team set (T202, T205, T206 Sovereign, P2, m116, M101-4&5, 1933 Goudey autographed) for the first time Ive bought the hofers before the commons.
