June pickups

[edjs]

But this is what I have got so far this month. Still waiting on another 1913 Oakland Oaks and a T206 Johnson Portrait. Thanks to Mark for a great trade on the Uzit, pretty excited about these pickups!

LOL, thanks. Seems like I never find anything until I find everything.

Picked up a couple of (somewhat) freaky t206's today.





Cool little Matty white cap Sweet Cap Factory 649 with double name.



Moose's color looks a bit shifty...

From the recent Beckett/Goodwin Auction. If this card wasn't trimmed, it would have cost me a lot more!

Got a package from SGC today. It feels like getting new cards, even though they have just been in New Jersey for a month.

I have been collecting movie posters for the better part of 30 years and have only ever seen 3 examples of this title lobby card for the film Play Ball With Babe Ruth.

It is an original release poster, but the funny thing is that there is some debate as to just when the film itself was actually released. The date that I have seen is 1920, but examples of the five "shorts" that comprise the movie are available on Youtube with a copyright date of 1932. Either way, posters from the film are almost non existent. Certainly far tougher than his other films Babe Come Home, Headin Home and The Pride Of The Yankees.

This will be available for sale shortly.

I love the colors on the orange background E98s. Very nice pickup Chris, I was the underbidder. I managed to snag 4 E98s in that auction but the orange McLean was one I whiffed on. With all the zillion red backgrounds and some green backgrounds in the Black Swamp Find, orange background E98s are starting to make a nice jump in value.

Super jealous of that Durham

Should have got his card a long time ago before I knew how scarce it was and actually had an opportunity to in my price range.

Hi Bob, I agree the Orange backgrounds are really seeing a price surge. They are the most visually appealing to me as well. I almost didn't go the last bid increment on this one, but I already had the other three colors of McLean and the completionist in me said go for it.

The auction had an amazing selection of E98s. Which 4 were you able to pick up?

I picked up an orange Chase, green McLean, orange Meyers and green Tenny (Tenney). I am in completist mode too regarding the E98s, trying to get the master set. Those 4 and the orange McLean you won were 5 I needed. Still need a couple more color variations. They are tough, but not as scarce to find as the handful of E94 color variations I need to complete that master set. The Chase, McLean and Meyers have great fronts and look like PSA 5-7s at first glance but have tiny paper loss on the backs. The Tenny is just a solid 4 and nice too.
