Are most T206 Ray Demmitt St-Louis cards creased?

Your english is just fine. I make my share of errors and it's pretty much my only language. (I understand some technical mechanical terms in a few languages, but not the surrounding text. Beyond that I can order beer and ask for the bathroom and that's about it.)

The point about slowing down a bit is a good one. Even at the snails pace I collect I find I need a bit of a break now and then. I also find the collecting more enjoyable when I take it as a slower more detailed journey.

That won't work for everyone, but I dislike seeing collectors lose enthusiasm after buying a handful of cards and quit. There are entire worlds of fun to be had beyond the checklists if you don't get burned out.

Sound advice!! I have the intention to take it slower just want to add the T206 O'Hara (St-Louis variation) in a 4 to my set then I will go at a slower pace for sure.

I have to agree with most of the members on the board that Zone91 needs to take a break from all the posting, do more of his research on his own and try to understand what the hobby is all about. First off, I would recommend that you start slow. If you are really interested in Old Judge cards. Do your own research, buy a couple cards and learn to really love the hobby! Don't just try to buy a $6k card...I have spent that kind of money on my collection but I consider myself to be an advanced collector, one who has spent YEARS studying and has taken the time to learn all the details about any given set. I didn't just one day decide to collect vintage cards. I love to look at my cards and feel the history that comes through them. To know that someone hundreds of years ago enjoyed them. I really suggest that you try to do the same thing! Picking up a couple of books and constantly hounding this board for information will only make you a joke to this board. Look at my post count..I am on this board almost every day and how often do I post? I like to check in to see what's being talked about and to see what's hot in the hobby. If you happened to check, there are about 1000 pages if information here, take some time and read some of them. I would tend to bet that most of if not all of your questions would be answered within those pages. Then you wouldn't need to start new threads every day. Sorry for the rant...but it had to be said.

Never said I was at your level in the hobby but one starts somewhere. I have been collecting cards post 1952 since 1989 I know a lot about those cards....I know a LOT about comic books from 1938 till now and U.S coins as well as Canadian coins....spent years reading and learning. I know for sure a card like Demmitt I purchased is not a bad buy and probably never will be same as a O'Hara T-206 St-Louis variation so I am buying sure things at the moment.

Did Shoeless Joe ever wear shoes?!

Who's better: PSA or SGC?!

How much would a T206 Wagner PSA 10 be worth?!

Is Shoeless Joe a HOF'er? If not, why are his cards worth so much? Is it just stupid bidders who have too much money and need his card to complete a set? It's all so baffling

What corner is 'Coaches Corner' located in? Which coaches are there?

Adrian, I'm not sure if others have mentioned before, but if not, you should also buy a membership and research things on vintagecardprices.com.

You can see prices that cards have sold for over the past several years in each PSA / SGC condition, and pictures of them as well (for the past few years).

That will help you as well to get up to speed.....
