Got these '35 Wheaties cutouts encapsulated at the Strongsville show earlier today.
Glad I did, as they really look cool in person! ...almost worth the 9 hour wait, SGC :cool: :D

That's a great looking "2," Greg.

Thanks Eddie, very happy with it. My lone win from the Brockelman Auction.

1933. I do have some 1934 and I kind of like the 1934s a bit better, but my dad chose 1933 so 1933 it is.

Good Month. Always looking for T206 Evers and Tinker, have much to trade.

a subset within a subset....doesn't come up for sale very often....Gehringer appears in the Type 1 , Type 4 , and being a Tiger , this Type 5.......Greenberg appears in all 5 types ; he's the only one ; I know , I've looked...Hi , Tim

I know it's not baseball, but putting this set together is paramount in my collecting focus. I was able to double the number of cards I had with one mail day. I don't really have anyone to share with, so y'all are the victims.

The cards are from the T36 (1911 ATC Auto Drivers). My blog post.

Never saw those before. Looks like a cool set.

Wide Pens 1937 R314 Gehringer-- Type 4 vs. Type 5
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...ONDTRY_NEW.JPG...


... here's a side-by-side way to distinguish between the American Type 4 (on the right) versus the Canadian Type 5 : the ''creamy" Type 4 has a more pronounced darker overall tone while the Type 5 appears lighter-toned and almost 'washed out' in appearance ; also the top of the capital "D" visible on their uniforms is thinner on the Type 5 and the font size for the "Charles" is more delicate, especially the first two letters.....
...me and possibly as many as two other guys actually care about stuff like this...


..

Picked up some Goudey hall of famers. Always love the artwork on these cards.

Big month for me...
 

I am a pretty happy camper at the moment...

A speck of paper loss on the back of the t206 and Betz, but otherwise 4 clean cards I am pretty stoked on.

Way to go Steven!!!! Heck of a haul.

That is some dope ****! Awesome cards!

Thanks guys...

Nice haul, I love that 1894 Baltimore Orioles card. What is that called?

Love the slabbed Wheaties. My favorite Wheaties issue. I have a few slabbed myself.

Damn Steven...

Love that Betz cabinet!

Not gonna lie. Pretty excited about this one.

M101-5 Ruth
 

Happy to add this one...

Wow.....nice one.

Spectacular!

Pete scores again!!! Congrats:)

Thanks guys!!

Pete, was it you that said they were getting a Ruth for each of the kids? If so, how many kids do you have? And will you adopt me? Great card, as always! :)

Lol!! Thanks Ed for remembering, my 3 little bananas are all set now.

Congrats Pete...I thought the 3 bananas were already taken care of!!!!! Is this for you? Or the top banana...whichever that one is!!!

Upgrade 1937 R314 Goudey Premiums "Wide Pens" Type 5
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...ATESES_NEW.JPG

...the raw Bates is much better ; I'll have it graded at the next Philly show ; I'll have to hand-carry and babysit the card to make sure the grader is aware of the correct year and type.....The reason for the grade "2" is a short border tear which I missed during my initial pre-submission examination eleven years ago ; Of the eight '37 Type 5's in that submission , only one came back with the correct flip....

..

Goudey premiums are so pretty

Lol Pete! You're right, I was all set, but am consigning the PSA 4 I have, to leave me still with the 3. This will be for my top banana. Tough to keep them all as they're not too cheap!!

Been holding off to post this one, until it came back today from PSA. My 1st ever sub.

Wow!
 

Another great addition to the (museum) collection Pete!
Great card. Thanks for sharing

April Pickups
 

Spectacular Jackie! I've added these two recently. Only 4 more!

Steven, don't you already have a CJ Cobb? Save some for the rest of us! Just kidding, great pickup!

I want to go camping at Pete's house.
Nicely done.

Was happy to pick up this one for my Providence set. Pop reports show only a handful graded.

I do...not exactly sure what I am doing here...

Wow!! Nice pick ups posted here. Would love to add a CJ Cobby someday.

Picked this up at the Tri-Star show today.

My first T206 scrap.

Just under the wire
 

At this point, its only upgrades, filling in holes, etc,... in T207. Lowdy completes T207 for me - second go 'round. Average grade just a hair shy of Ex/SGC 60/PSA 5.

While most of these are from April, I have not picked up anything in a long while ... it'll be a long while recovering, too.

Those are great Mike - congrats!

Yes, Mike, GREAT !!!!!

Love Lowdermilk ----> His "I can't believe I'm going to be on a Baseball card" expression is priceless :)
