new Storefront (Belltown Vintage Cards): Contest

[Runscott]

Two winners - choice of one of the photos described below, or this Susini card featuring Red Murray: Susini Red Murray

Guess the winner, total points and score of the AFC championship game:

1st tie-breaker: Total points
2nd tie-breaker: Point differential;e.g-Denver beats N.E. 35-31 and you guess 38-28, point differential=6. If you guessed N.E. beats Denver 35-31, point differential=0, but you wouldn't have gotten to this tie-breaker, because you guessed the wrong teams
3rd tie-breaker: This is weird, but - point differential between your birthday (day/month) and the final game-score, where 'day' represents the winner.

1st prize is your choice of either of the two 11 x 14 silver gel prints from 'the Conlon Collection', shown below, or the Susini card (link above). 2nd prize chooses from whichever prizes the 1st prize winner doesn't take. The photos listed originally at $149 (Mathewson) and $99 (Baker) when I bought them just after 'the Conlon Collection' store opened. I took them out of their wrappers once to loupe, then put them away, so they are mint. I saw the 'Rhoades Throwing' sold for $88 in a 2011 Mears auction, so they are considered pretty nice by some collectors.

Please post your entries in this thread, or the similar one in the main forum - only one entry, but you can edit it up until game-time next weekend.

Looks great Scott!

[JoeyF1981]

Very nice Scott!

[Scott Garner]

Awesome, Scott! Lots of terrific photo images.
Congrats!

[RUKen]

I have one correction to offer--the photo labeled "Johnson, Walter - Reds uniform" that indicates that he had just become manager of the Reds, should instead indicate that he had just become manager of the Indians. He never managed the Reds.

I look forward to seeing what else you add to your site.

[Runscott]

Thanks, I will correct that. I've had that photo for quite a while, and had 'Reds' in my head the entire time

Thanks, also to Lance for the Knabe info, and Jay for the Meteors cabinet correction. I'm sure there are plenty of more mistakes to be found.

[HRBAKER]

I believe there is also a photo that refers to Lefty O'Doul as a HOFer, which I believe to be incorrect.

GREAT store Scott, good luck with it!

Thanks, Jeff.

The photo prints section contains some excellent photos at fair prices. And I don't lie.

For the record, I know Scott but have no stake of any kind in his venture and he has not asked me to post anything about his site. Just thought I'd offer my opinion as a so-called photo expert, in particular as my folks on Net54 are unfamiliar with the ins and outs of photographs.

*edited to add publications and extend coupon date

Net54 members get a 10% discount on tobacco cards and some publications, through Tuesday, by using the code NET54HAWKS (it is for tobacco cards, BaseBall Magazine, Reach Guides and Spalding Guides).

Only mentioning this because I've had a couple of Net54 purchases where the forum member didn't use the code.

Looks like 2 people guessed 24-17. Well done!

[ethicsprof]

that football fanatic,Barry Arnold, guessed Denver winning 28-12 total 40 on the card side.
what does he win?

all the best,
barry

[Runscott]

(Posted on card side as well)

There is also the posts on the main forum side to consider. I'll work it out here in the coffee shop, then post on both sides.

Thanks for everyone who participated, and also for the business of those of you who have been checking out the site, and purchasing stuff.

Note: I am listing some of the items from my site, on ebay as well. Naturally they are priced higher on ebay, to cover my fees. I prefer that people buy from my website, but I can't control that - ebay gets higher visibility.

[Runscott]

Ben's amazing prediction not-withstanding, among the Net54 mortals,
Chris (baseball tourist) and Keith (kjjavic) tied for 1st, with 24-17 guesses.

Barry took third with 40 total points.

Once I get Chris and Keith's b'days for the final tiebreaker (unless they were born in the same mont/day, they can pick prizes, and Barry will get the leftovers.

Thanks everyone, for participating. I have been having a blast with the storefront and hope to have everything I own loaded by the end of this month.

[ethicsprof]

many thanks!
I love leftovers.

all the best,
barry

[Runscott]

Thanks, Barry.

Chris wins with a game/b'day point differential of 23, vs Keith's of 36

Please post prize choices on the main forum side.
