I guess I'll start. Picked up this T205 Piedmont Factory 42 Cobbie for my 42 Subset. Birthday present for myself!

Nice looking "1" of an iconic card. :)

Thanks Eddie! It's a big pickup for my factory 42 subset. I let one slip away over a year ago and was finally able to pick one up!

Thanks to Joe T for finding me this beauty. Represents the 1927 team, and the year Ruth hit 60 for my collection, which had been two holes. Plus any Red Sox Ruth image is also always extra cool. Had been seeing the early Ruth stuff take off in price, and was a good time to grab a nice York, before one hit the auction circuit and joined the others. "Affordable pre-Goudey Ruth" is starting to become an oxymoron! ;)

Great Ruth!

And congrats again Chris, one of the best postcards in the hobby, especially post WW1.

I love the San Diego piece, I've never seen that one before. Great Ruth too!

Upgrade..'37 Type 5 Mechanical Man
 
http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...5TYPE5_NEW.JPG

...these are "Wide Pens"- R314 Goudey Premiums from the 1937 Type 5 issue of mostly Canadian players but also with about a dozen or so Detroit Tigers from South of the border (but barely so) ....the upgrade is quite a bit faded , and the original is somewhat darkened , undoubtedly from questionable storage practices over the last 80 years.....the true standard normal coloration is a dullish tan/amber matte finish , ; picture something about halfway between these two garish examples....
..Charles Gehringer appears in the types 1 (1936) , 4 , and 5 (both 1937)......Hank Greenberg is the only player to appear in all five versions.....took forever to put together that little mini-master set...
