Great card Leon! But it really needs one of these.

Leon · #**102** 05-11-2009, 07:59 AM

I have been accused of being politically incorrect before and I guess this goes right in stride. Unfortunately I don't know how big that little moose coin is and the reason I use coins in the first place is for size comparison (of course).....take care...

edited to add- this popcorn card is a very unusual size....about that of a T227

Phil,
Amazing Betz Studio card! Do I count 6 HOFers on that? Awesome.

bcbgcbrcb · #**104** 05-11-2009, 02:52 PM

Thanks, Ken. There are actually 7: Brouthers, Hanlon, Keeler, Kelley, McGraw, Jennings & W. Robinson.

Bicem · #**105** 05-11-2009, 03:24 PM

That piece is unreal Phil, thought you got a steal too.

HRBAKER · #**106** 05-11-2009, 03:48 PM

Thanks Mr. Kindler.

Well, I missed out on the G. Davis - Honest Duke Cabinet in REA but just picked this one up instead.

Thanks, Tony

Leon · #**108** 05-11-2009, 06:26 PM

I always liked this goofy pose.

jmk59 · #**109** 05-11-2009, 08:03 PM

From the brand new but still reliable BST. From Tony Andrea. Will also post this on the memorabilia side w/a question as to age basd on uniform cues.

Great image of one of the era's premier female players, owners and promoters. I suspect this is from her earlier days, when she played with a Chicago team, before she moved to Michigan and founded the Western Bloomer Girls somewhere around 1911ish. I think.

Dan Great cards super tough backs the BL460...wow!

Matt · #**113** 05-12-2009, 04:45 AM

Dan - fantastic T206s!

Chris D. · #**114** 05-12-2009, 06:21 AM

Beautiful T206's. The 7's are incredible.

T206.org · #**115** 05-12-2009, 09:00 AM

Oh my, Dan. Some of those are the best examples I've seen! The registration, centering, and color on the Brown and Lajoie Portraits... wow.

calvindog · #**116** 05-12-2009, 09:34 AM

Yeah, I'd have to second that comment on the Brown portrait. That's about as nice an example of that card that I've ever seen.

Doug · #**117** 05-12-2009, 09:42 AM

Wow, Dan! That's an incredible group of cards!

bmarlowe1 · #**118** 05-12-2009, 09:56 AM

Dan - great cards, and importantly, a nice job scanning them.

It might be useful to tell everyone what dpi setting you used, etc.

Doug · #**119** 05-12-2009, 02:47 PM

My REA win arrived today so I figured I'd share it again!

Jason Carota · #**120** 05-12-2009, 05:57 PM

Dan: Great Arellanes!

Doug: That Delhanty looks amazing.

Mailman dropped this off today:

dancollins · #**121** 05-13-2009, 02:03 AM

Thanks guys I appreciate the compliments..........

I have a good method for scanning, email me if interested in me walking you through it or just give me a call.... 440-478-3941

Thanks,
Dan

From the Robert Morris show and I would like to thank, respectively, Kent, Mike and fellow board member Ken Cohen. It was a pleasure meeting Kent and Ken and renewing acquaintainces with Mike.

Heritage and Legendary winnings arrived this week:

Chris D. · #**132** 05-16-2009, 08:02 AM

Those post cards are beautiful. Love the Johnson. Congratulations.

tbob · #**133** 05-16-2009, 03:49 PM

David- Those postcards are fantastic! I can remember not that many years ago when most collectors (including myself) shied away from the postcards as a red headed step child of the card hobby. It seems like once PSA and SGC started grading them that their popularity grew exponentially. Really nice. Congrats!

Bicem · #**134** 05-16-2009, 06:11 PM

wow David, are you going to do the set?

Kawika · #**135** 05-16-2009, 06:28 PM

Going to do the set? Probably not. Picked up the lot of eight from the recent Legendary auction mainly for the HOFers and Chase. Just sent you an e-mail.

bijoem · #**136** 05-16-2009, 07:00 PM

David...

just awesome.

I love that Wagner postcard!

Kawika · #**137** 05-16-2009, 07:54 PM

That's one serious looking club in his hands, eh Joe?

Abravefan11 · #**138** 05-17-2009, 02:51 PM

I can't figure out why this card didn't grade but I'm extremely happy with it.

Tim - Great looking card! Sometimes the Mayo's were blackened on the edges which would cause the A grade. I prefer them that way - they come much cheaper and look the same!

Judging by their cards/ images....

Honus - and Lajoie too - didn't swing a bat.

They seemed to use tree trunks.

tbob · #**142** 05-17-2009, 09:05 PM

Ah, the forest green Magee, the last of the color variations needed for him in the E94 set

Also, thanks to Brian McQ for the nice 1909 Obak Ehman, a very tough card.
That finishes off that set for me.

calvindog · #**143** 05-18-2009, 01:35 PM

Jason Carota · #**144** 05-18-2009, 05:45 PM

Amazing pickups, David! Is that a T200 Boston Am. premium squeezed in among the other scans?

TheBig6 · #**145** 05-18-2009, 09:04 PM

It's been awhile since I picked up a T3, really happy with this one.

nolemmings · #**146** 05-18-2009, 09:49 PM

that T3 is a beaut!!! Not enough classic shots of the Brownies, IMO.

TheBig6 · #**147** 05-18-2009, 10:19 PM

Thanks Todd, it will go good with my T3 Wallace which is also a neat pose.
Hope you enjoy the Merkle, I'll ship it tomorrow.

JamesGallo · #**148** 05-18-2009, 10:30 PM

I was very happy to pick these up as it fills two holes in 2 sets I have been working on.

The Rucker is by far the most beat up card I own, but hey it's rare so what can you do :-D

Special thanks to Ben for letting go of these guys finally..

tbob · #**149** 05-19-2009, 11:11 AM

Thanks Quan. I have about half the E97 black and white set, maybe I'll make a run at it since I already have the Young and the rest are obtainable except maybe the Keeler which is a little pricey.
