February 2012 Pickup Thread

[scooter729]

Got this recently but hadn't scanned until just now, so that still counts for February, right?

[bcbgcbrcb]

Nice pick-up, Dave. Looks familiar, I think I had one in blue though.........

[jcmtiger]

Kenny, you must have picked up that Brouthers OJ in a private deal, I sure didn't see it. Let me know if you want to sell it.

Thanks Phil. Yes, I noticed that. Co-incidentally, I picked up your old Candy Cummings Albertype today.

[Big Six]

I probably overpaid, but at $40, not bad...it is a Hassan back so that has to count for something...I also picked up a Larry Doby Perez Steele post card (PSA)...my 85th signed Perez Steele...it was a great piece that I got at a fraction of what I normally see signed Doby PSs going for. All in all, a good day...

Well, you could have had my PSA 4 cheaper - sold Sunday on ebay for $39. Reminds me - I might have a "St. Valentine's Day Massacre" Sale this month.

Hey Scott...this is true...though your note presupposes I'm intelligent, which I routinely confirm I am not. Hoping we can do some business in the near future...would love to add some more T205s to my collection...Matt

I still have a few left

[Kenny Cole]

Joe,

I picked up the Brouthers in the Goodwin auction. I'm glad you missed it. I didn't need any further competition.

[MVSNYC]

thanks to Sean.

[rustywilly]

Replaced a 1933 Goudey #110 with this portrait:



Thanks Matt!

[bcbgcbrcb]

Very nice, Mark, that's a much more interesting card than the '33 Goudey.

[t206hound]

Number 201 arrived today (along with my new scanner, Epson V33)... Kleinow Boston Catching... need to slow down a bit

[atx840]

Proof from ALC circa 1909.

Erick, that's a beauty.

Another beautifully-registered T205 Matty arrived today. I was hoping it would be an upgrade, but not quite. Good trade bait, though

Oh, thats right, I did bid on the Brouthers and one other Detroit player, did not win either. The other was an upgrade, did not want to spend that much for upgrade.

Pretty nice "1" Lajoie.

[DixieBaseball]

Redfern :

[novakjr]

Two new ones today. Got a steal on the 3rd different 1908 George E Wright Morgan Bulkeley PC. This one is un-used(another bonus). Also, after being significantly outbid on the 1903 Burr Mcintosh Iron Man McGinnity auction the other day, I managed to find another one really cheap(not really a card though)... It was a good day for deals..

[Runscott]

He looks pretty serious, as he should - this photo was taken in June, 1928, dead-center in the middle of a 3-year managerial stretch in which he went 116-295, quite possibly the worst consecutive three years in MLB history.

The proof piece Chris Browne posted will give you so much insight into the inks and colors used for production by American Lithograph to better understand colors and missing colors.

Received in a trade with rdixon1208:

At least someone gets my random non card purchase.

[iggyman]

I'm starting to really dig baseball related postcards. I think I'm at a crossroad in my collecting life. Should I go see a doctor or something?



Lovely Day...

[Exhibitman]

Yep, you're infected, Iggyman. I've gotten into boxing PCs over the last few years, similar virus, same prognosis. Overall, though, it is a relatively benign disease, primarily afflicting only the wallet and on rare occasions the marital relationship.

[BCauley]

Finally got around to my first pickup of the year. Thanks Lee!

[4815162342]

Nice way to start the year Bill!

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank You, Charles and Thank You, Andrew:

[tbob]

Still working on completing these 3 sets.

[atx840]

My first non-t206 pickup, I hear it's a slippery slope...next ill be collecting packs & postcards

Bit of a miscut.

[leaflover]

Picked these up raw last February... I think I'll look for some this year in Baltimore.

[Jason]

Technically a January Pickup I suppose.Thanks SSA.

[t206blogcom]

Finally had a few minutes to do some scanning. Here's a partial list of some pickups. Still need to scan over a dozen raw cards...

[paulcarek]

A modest pickup, but it's my first playing-days Johnson card, so I'm excited.

[t206hound]

Thanks to Bill for the trade to get me to 202... the Chase miscut was an ebay purchase that I freed from it's PSA slab. Thanks to those who gave me the heads up on it!

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank You, Matt:

[atx840]

Nice Erick! Miscut back and all.

[4815162342]

Thanks Pete!

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank You, David for the Mike Simon portrait:

[nolemmings]

some more ephemera for my m101s: the first TSN ad for m101-6 and the only magazine ad from Successful farming for m101-5:

[HRBAKER]

Todd,
That's a great M101-6 ad.

[Jason]
