Happy 2019 everyone!

Croft Candy Wagner - thx Pete!!

Bam!! Awesome card Brian, congrats. Welcome back to the world of cards; I know it must have been tough buying something so small... And Pete C is the man, I have done several big deals with him - a true collector of great cards and a class act.

Frank, that is a great looking Bender.

Greg, great look Wheat - what an awesome pose.

Solid start to 2019

Thanks Steven!

Did a little Shoeless upgrade.

Nice pick up Mike...

Thanks...Wow, you too!

Indeed! Such a sweet and smooth swing.

Thank you sir! Happy to finally cross it off of the list.

Figured I would start the year off on a humble note (thanks Jeff, great trade).

Chuck, WOW. Great pick up.

Michael (aka Johnny), you are on fire lately - two Cobbs in one week!

Love the Jacksons!
 

Thanks to Brian Van Horn. A nice addition of a tough, tough card.

Very nice Jacksons Ryan and Chuck!! Congrats on those pickups!

Couldn't resist an impulse pickup of some T212 Obak's today -- they're just so darn pretty!

Attachment 339704

Those Obaks are so nice looking!

Thanks Leon!

Wasnt planning on upgrading the psa 1 I had for my back run but I just couldnt resists

Great card; limited slabbing choices :)

Thanks Jeffery
Yes, limited slabbing, I like it raw.

A still surprisingly underrated HOFer in the set and in general
 

The writing on the back is a cool added touch

Purchased this classic sweater pose from ebay. With ebay bucks and seller discount got it for a price I never thought possible.

Happy to pick up a nice looking copy of this card that fit my budget!

Loving it !!

Very happy with my new Speaker, Cycle 350 back. Thx Bob!

E 90-1 Knight
 

Picked this nice upgrade at the recent Sterling auction and the Matty on eBay. Off to a good 2019!

N172 Jimmy Ryan
 

Really like the image on this one. Ryan was a pretty damn good ballplayer too

they're just so darn pretty!

Great looking cards. Obaks in my opinion are the nicest looking baseball cards there are!

Very happy to get this today thanks to a very kind board member.

Very nice Brian, great combo

Not Pre-War, but cool
 

Nice pick up Whaler, that's a tough one. ;)

Nice to see you got another one. :D

Is it a 1910 or 1911?

Overland Candy R301 / Rollie Hemsley
 

Picked up a trimmed Rollie Hemsley from 1936 Overland Candy wrapper set.

Very cool

This one is a 1911.

Here's a card from a set you don't often see... came in the mail today.

Al Demaree Die-cuts - 1934.

Probably overpaid for the Foxx but you only live once...

Very cool card. I’ve always wanted a Sadaharu Oh. I’d love to get a Pele rookie as well.

Who says you must attend the White Plains show to do a deal with a dealer at the White Plains show. Andrew and Joe, thanks for cobbling this together from 3 states away.

Ryan, congratulations on a fantastic pickup. Beautiful card...glad I got to see it yesterday!

Sweet Cobb E102 Ryan. That's my favorite Cobb pose by the way. Not sure why, it's not the best image of him, but there's just something about it that I'm drawn to.

That’s a beauty Ryan. It’s a super clean and tough card, score

White Plains pickup. Thrilled to add this to my collection.

Great E220 Ruth there Andrew! Congrats, very tough card, underrated too!

Thanks Ryan helping with my New Additions
 

Hi

Wanted to Thank Ryan to help pull off a nice trade for A Gimbels and Famous and Barr Joe Jackson and to help free up so I can purchase my Dream E121 Babe Ruth

Always looking to trade or upgrade specially in Early Ruth and Joe Jackson

Wow! Amazing stuff!

Awesome Ruth Andrew. Jeff, great trade! That is a beautiful trio there and the e121 Ruth is a stunner.

Great cards Ryan and Andrew...congrats!

Pissed off that I struck out at PWCC last night, I did one quick roll through ebay, and BAM, this had just been listed, and at a very fair price at that. Needless to say, it is no longer listed.

Picked up my first Helmar. Excited to have a look at it when I get it. I actaully am not 100% sure how big this is. It's a "cabinet"...

I know, they are not cards. But they are pretty special.


Who is our photo preservation expert? I need to know how to take care of these.

Nice Ed!

Guru you sly dog, please share that photo on the OBC servers when you get the chance. It’s pretty great...

Those are exceptional items. I love them.

As for preservation, check with member drcy.

Nice photos Ed!
 

Very nice photos Ed!

Big fan of the PCL!

Thanks, guys.

Up to 150/185 for the T213-2 collectors

Nice looking Lajoie, Ben. T3's are undervalued IMO.

Nice Ben!

Few pickups...
 

Added a couple tobacco and candy cards.

Brian, great cards. I was eyeing that Green Cobb, glad you got it. (Nice Matty too!).

Those are really nice pickups, congrats (along with the others in this thread.) Nice month so far. Here is a double fold postcard that hasn't made its way to me yet but will soon. White Sox at Comiskey Park.

Attachment 341359 Attachment 341360 Attachment 341361

Nice trio Rob! I’m pretty much out of the T206 game but that is a great Lenox example! Awesome pickup.

Thanks Jason. I got it from Luke after staring at it for about a month. I had been flirting with a back run for a while, but I'm all in now.

Attachment 341381

Rob, those cards look great all together...how many other backs needed?

Thanks. I really like the way they look too. I still need all of these:

AB 460
Cycle 460
EPDG
SC 460 #25
SC 460 #42OP
Uzit

It's an impossible group of backs. I think there's only one confirmed Uzit and a couple EPDGs. The ABs aren't easy at all either. But whatever. If I never get another one, I'll just enjoy the ones I have.

Ruth Pickup
 

Hi Andrew it’s JoeT. So glad you grabbed that E220 Ruth. It’s such a tough card to find with a stellar central image. Also, thanks once again for helping me out with the E102 Cobb for Ryan.

Best Regards,
Joe
