September Pick Up Thread
 

Young Ladies

This was my pickup and the reason why I was selling some of my collection that I was very much tied to.

Beautiful card Jeff, congrats on that pickup!

Super cool piece Leon. That’s legit history. Is that the earliest known woman’s baseball image?

Jeff, your BS Ruth ain’t half bad either. Congrats on a monster pickup

Very nice, Leon -- great image and piece.

Jeff -- congrats on an awesome card!

Amazing card Jeff! Congratulations!

Bill

Congrats Jeff! Amazing card!!!

Another rookie for my pre-war HOF run.....

Missed the 1919 WS on account of the flu.....

Per Ray Schalk, had Faber been available, the fix would likely have never happened. Had Faber been healthy, he would almost certainly have gotten some of the starts that went to two of the conspirators, Eddie Cicotte and/or Lefty Williams.

One can only wonder :)

Awesome card, Jeff--congrats!

Amazing pick-up Jeff

Thanks Michael, Ryan, Steve, Bill, Chris, Brian and Eric

Appreciate the kind words. And as many of us often do we sacrifice part of our collection to upgrade or get a bucket list card.
This one one of mine and gave up alot but have no regrets(YET):D:D

Looking forward to a great month of cards from the group and looking forward to see them all.

So these came end of last month, but since I got them from Jeff, who upgraded and posted his phat new pickup, I guess I will post these here, now.

those ladies...don't look like ladies!!!!! I wouldn't mess with them!!!! Great pickups so far...I have a feeling there will be more doozies!

Knew something was coming up big, though it might be one of those
Coming Home or a Big Head Ruth in your future,
this was a suprise for sure!
Congrats.

Pretty good September so far!

I wondered how many of those Ruth cards would end up members hands, congrats Jeff, Jeff, and Ryan. Great pickups.

This looks like it will be a strong month for this group.

Great pickup Leon, Ryan(those do look familiar), and Jeff (great Felix Mendelssohn Ruth… Smoking) and ken WOW on that merchant bakery back.

Keep them coming

Congrats Jeff. That FM Ruth, specifically, is really special

Wow, congrats Jeff! I was hoping your card liquidation was for something fun, this definitely qualifies. I've been silent on the pickup boards since late last year as I spent the last nine months selling/consigning and abandoning collecting goals after I quite unexpectedly was able to pick up a card of a lifetime for me, so I know a little about that sacrifice, but like you I also have no regrets. Enjoy that beauty! As Ryan likes to say, monster pickup.

The 'Babe"....Adams. Very interesting career for sure.

I think that’s an Annie Grant rookie card, Leon! Nice!

Fortunate to pick this one up.

Love those Collins-McCarthy Black Sox. Now, if I could only pick up a Weaver......

Not baseball, but picked up a complete set of these.

That's very cool KECLEVELAND!!!!!!

+1 agreed very cool

Can you tell us a little about them?

Jeff—Beautiful M101-6 Ruth!

We've seen the Doyle, N.Y. and the rare Doyle, N.Y. Nat'l, but here's the even rarer Doyle, N.Y. N that I have discovered!

.

Great pickup, Jeff. This is a special card.

First pick up of the month was a real cool one!

very cool pickup Nate

Thanks appreciated and the rest of the items that went to auction in November will hopefully help with my next key pickup after that.

All about allocating the resources and staying focused on what I like(and I struggle staying focused with so many nice items coming up all the time)

Type cards from recent auctions:

Nice pickup, Michael! Those proofs are scarce.

Thank you...I particularly liked the image quality and condition on this one.

I started collecting vintage soccer this spring. Fisrt thing I did was start researching players, and discovered Ricardo Zamora. Zamora is the goalie in the white sweater. The Spanish league’s yearly trophy is named for him. Kinda like Cy Young.

The 1920s era cards are beautiful, mostly paintings like baseball tobacco. Almost all of them were issued with chocolates. This set has 8 players with 18 cards each making a puzzle. I purchased the entire set. These are the first cards made for Barcelona.

Jaime Boix actually made a similar set of world leaders, the Woodrow Wilson is cool.

Love the oddball stuff.

It is trimmed...but these are tough...

My homies.

Some outstanding pickups, love the BS Ruth, m101-6 Ruth, Wolverine Cobb and Stag cabinet!

Awesome postcard!

Congrats On the pick up Ed, nice Crawford Dave, always a tough card.

Thank you Rhett and Phil. Since it is in the same location as the Portland photo from this thread, I assume this also is a Central Studio photo.

Another pin for the collection

That is a cool postcard, and I especially like the two bonnet wearing groupies...l wonder what the story is behind their inclusion in this team shot.

Brian

Great Subject Matter:D

Early photobombing.

Thanks Jeff. I'm getting more and more into pins.
