Last March Pickup thread
 

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Hi Clint, I won them in a lot on ebay Saturday night and picked them up today. Apparently these were found at John Brown's cave in Nebraska City, NE.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.lasr.net/pages/city.php?City_ID=NE0313020&VA=Y&Attraction_ID=NE03 13020a005" target="_new">http://www.lasr.net/pages/city.php?City_ID=NE0313020&VA=Y&Attraction_ID=NE03 13020a005</a><br /><br /><br />The owner did not know why they were there, but they may have been part of a display as the place had some type of museum there. He got them about 5 years ago he said and just had them stored up until he listed them. The seller said he has a bunch more tobacco cards to list, but these were the only baseball.<br />

Posted By: <b>Ed McCollum</b><p>• It gives me an excuse to look at every t206 that becomes available in auctions, eBay, B/S/T, etc. without the expectation of having to spend a lot of money.<br /><br />• My quest has no end. So far, I've not been able to find any listing of how many cards he may have touched in his life. Therefore, this can go on for as long as I can.<br /><br />• I've made contact with a lot of great collectors here on the board. So many people have either let me know they have one they are willing to part with, or they see one in an auction and want to make sure I've seen it, or they let me know they used to have one, where it might be now, and I can add it to the never ending list of what I'm still after.<br /><br />Almost one year in to it, and I sort of wish I hadn't wasted the first 20 trying to build a whole set. But at least now, the sale of most of them are funding the new collection.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone on the board, especially the moderators.<br /><br />Ed

Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>Adam, it's clear to see that you had one amazing week!<br />very nice.<br /><br />Ed,<br />agreed, I am amazed at how many of those cards you have been able to locate. This St. Louis one has exceptionally brilliant color - it must be your scanner, right? very nice addition. That one is in my "sweater" subset!

Posted By: <b>Ed McCollum</b><p>and horribly out of register. I work with color for a living (as an art director) but I'm used to the 4c process method, not the method used to print the old cards. But nothing seems to be in register to anything else...the yellow, the green, the black, the flesh colors .... but what there is really pops off the card.

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Paul:<br /><br />That's a really nice Marichal card!<br /><br />I don't know what you paid for it but I saw one on e-bay for a while last year with a "Buy It Now" of $400.00. I thought about picking it up but decided not to get into minor league issues if I already have the major league rookie card as then I would have to start buying Zeenuts, etc. and would be spending more money than I already do.
