Chris, I love the Hofman Red Cross. I wish I could find a Merkle/Red Cross.

[HercDriver]

Brian - way to go on that Gehrig!!

Take Care,
Geno

[Vintagecatcher]

Picked up another classic CJ catcher pose.

Here's my additions as of late...thanks to Chris, Jamie and Sean. (note- crazy hair in photo reflection is not mine).

Michael, about that Drum, I can't believe it either.

I'm guessing from the absence of Seymour that you traded with Jaime. Good. I'm glad it went to a good home.

Nice 1889 Stockton composite cabinet with George Van Haltren, Charley Sweeney, and George Stallings as a player.

[E93]

Chris,
Wow!

John,
Amazing Conner! Does he have a partner in his future?

Jay,
Awesome piece! Is that Ewing? Stockton, CA?

JimB

[caramelcard]

Jay, figured you won those cabinets. I thought they went cheap!

Nice pickup.

[Blunder19]

Kids are expensive.....

Especially Triplets!..

Big Thanks to Mike Sarno for working out a deal to get me the 3rd.. pretty cool as I've never seen any one collector with 3 of the same before.

[ullmandds]

Jamie...you're a hoar...der!

Holy Seymour, Batman! Simply incredible. I didn't think more than two of any player/pose existed. Nice pick up.

[atx840]

Excellent Jamie! You're the first that I know of.

Technically there should be 3-4 of each player if the sheets were stacked that high. I know of one yellow/brown with 4 examples....

My theory is only one sheet existed.....the fact that three survived of one player and that they are back together is amazing...now I need to find that third Davis!

[oldjudge]

Jim--yes that is Stockton, CA. They were in the California League in 1889 with Oakland, SF, and Sacramento. They are the only one of the four with no players in the Old Judge set (yet). No, that is not Ewing, although it does look like him.

[Robextend]

Tolstoi #144

[Greenmonster]

1910 Red Sox Team Postcard sent from Harry Lord while in Hot Springs to friends back in Kezer Falls.

[4scuda]

This is my first Ty Cobb card. I don't collect many cards, but saw this one and thought it would be a good add.

[ValKehl]

Congrats Phil!! If my memory hasn't failed me again, I read in another thread that you are using your new pickup as an excuse for not attending the National this year. You might want to rethink this and take Alex to the National, because it's never too early to expose a kid to card collecting!

Not being a set collector, a big thrill for me is when I acquire a card, such as this very tough W503, that fills a void in both my type collection and one of my player collections. Thanks again Mark!
Val

[CW]

A classic Cobb, Mark. Nice!

[Jaybird]

Great card, Jim. Fantastic pickup with player provenance. Doesn't get any better than that.

Hi Jason, thank you. This provenance of this item is from Frank Jock (Kezar Falls collector and friend of Harry Lord) to Buck Barker to Ray Medeiros and as of this weekend to me. Interesting also is that this card has never been bought/sold just handed down from friend to friend.

[dog*dirt]

Some real nice stuff guys!!

[abothebear]

My 4th Cardinal and first 3 Tigers. Paid slightly more than I usually do for the Goslin and Frisch, but made up for it by finding deals on the Bridges and White.

[Seiklis]

Very Happy on this one...Finally got my Broadleaf Green...thanks again Scott

Thanks Jeff, you've had some cards in the monthly threads that I have admired (ok, coveted and envied)

This Gehrig is one tough, and pricy card. Made easier by buying a partial collection from the York Guru hisself, (hi Scot) but still this one will $low me down awhile...
I need to get it into a SGC slab where the contrast of b/w will pop nicely. No scan with a baggie can do much justice to the card

Hey, its only July 4th and some of the pickups here are firecrackin' hot!

[t206hound]

Back up to 379 with this Payne

[t206hound]

three more brings me to 93:

[soxinseven]

Many thanks to Ted Z. for working with me on this card!

[pencil1974]

Just picked this up last night. Got it for a good deal since there back has some paper loss but still thought it was a nice card.

[Jason]

Interesting looking fellow.

[WillowGrove]

I do think Phil wins for best July pick up - Congrats Phil. Here's some of my new babies..... (thanks Scott for the exhibits!)

[joeadcock]

Peter

Cool Wilhelm

[Cardboard Junkie]

A couple more

[bcbgcbrcb]

Very nice, Peter.

[Greenmonster]

No future Major Leaguers on this card but I do like the card design.

[bbpostcards]

A few more fun postcards - the panorama is scanned into two parts - plus a very tough Cuban mascot card. For more, visit http://www.sportingoregon.com/]
