Tinker Portrait - a recent pickup

[Sinker Slider]

Probably my favorite image and one of the first couple I bought. Love the blue background, the cap, and the split-hand grip.

[Cmount76]

In 1907, he is credited for introducing the shin guard to the catching position.

[trambo]

The 6.5 is a recent pickup and the Sovereign is one that I picked up thinking I'd never upgrade it!

Tinker, bat off

[tedzan]

Hey Rob

Your Tinker (bat on) / TOLSTOI card is a real beauty.

And, I thought you may like to see my Huggins card......how rare is this gem ?

[Cliff Bowman]

The only T206 cards that I have are a partial Cubs team set that I assembled when I was a teenager in the mid 80's. It didn't seem like it then but they were dirt cheap compared to now.

[RCMcKenzie]

Thanks, Ted, I only see 1 Huggins port on PSA's pop report for 1910 Coupon, and it's a PSA 2, so it must be the one you have.

There are 2 listed on SGC as a portrait, and 5 that are not broken down by pose. There are 2 3's on their list of 5, so this one that I have must be listed under those. I got it at auction over 10 years ago. After the auction, someone started a thread on here asking who in the world would pay that much for a Huggins T213? Any grade of 2 or 3 for these is high grade.

[brianp-beme]

The T206 set has so many great looking cards, it is easy to overlook some. Here is Addie Joss pitching...it is just a neat card that doesn't get the fanfare that even, in comparison, his portrait card does.

[brianp-beme]

Vic Willis got a hit once in every 6 at bats, both during his career and his last MLB season with the Cardinals in 1910. I guess that qualifies him for a T206 card with a bat in his hand.

[Rhotchkiss]

Ted, do you still own that T213 Huggins? I think it is listed on ebay....

I am sorry I just saw this thread and didn’t get a chance to participate- great idea for a thread. Can we do an HOF - with exception of black/brown OM SL - master back run?

[tedzan]

Hi Ryan

I owned that 1910 COUPON Huggins card for many years. Sold it at the National.

Ryan, you should try and get it. The seller is a poster here. I would, if I didn't already have one.

I bought this Keeler a long time ago. I read back then that the port is harder to find with a 350 back. I dunno, the 150's look nicer for sure. I'm pretty sure I have a 150 in a box somewhere.

Funny, I have actually been in contact with the member (off eBay) re the card- that’s why I was confused if Ted still owned it. Nice Keeler.

One Wallace and Wagner away from reaching the goal? That Wallace should sure be tough

[tedzan]

John Franklin “Home Run” Baker was Connie Mack's 3rd Basemen (1908 - 1914). Then he played for the NY Yankees (1916 - 1922).

beautiful Wagner Eric!

[ebrehm]

Thanks Pat, I bought this in 2008, crossed it from SGC to PSA in 2010, then finally sold it in 2015. I got the card mainly to complete the T206 Hall of Fame subset. Sad to see it go but I still have the other 75 subjects!

Not many people can say that they owned a t206 Wagner and that is a really nice one.

That is one fine looking Wagner card....thanks for posting it here.


OK guys, we have on display 75 of the HOFers. We need Lajoie (throwing) to complete this gallery.

Wow Eric, that is pretty.

Any idea where it resides today? If so, do you mind PMing me. Thanks

Beautiful Wagner. I would have sold the other 75 and kept the Wagner. However I am a Pirates fan.

[sb1]

Here's the Wagner I used to own.

Sadly, having one is not as exciting as one would think. I have/had literally hundreds of cards that are rarer and/or better looking, but obviously the Wagner is the most desirable by the masses.

Hey Chuck9788

Gee, do you bring back some very fond memories. I set-up at Ed Walsh's Shows back in the 1980's. They were great fun at the Asbury Park (NJ) Convention Hall on the long pier
overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Ed had great BB guests (Duke Snider, Bill White, Ernie Banks, Yogi Berra and wife, Carmen). It was a really great Show for selling, trading, buying
BB cards. Boy, those were the days....you didn't have to take out an Equity Loan on your home to purchase BB cards

Plus, the Show guests were the most cordial people you'd ever meet at a Show. Ernie Banks stopped at every dealer table to chat and see if you had stuff which pertained to him
that he did not already have. Yogi Berra's wife was the most gracious lady I ever met. She, too, went from dealer to dealer chatting, and looking for Yogi's BB cards, memorabilia,
etc. for their Grandchildren. And, I wil tell you this, Carmen really knew her stuff.
