Nice Ruth Steve! You were looking for that one for a while.

steve- nice bambino!! out of the 4 that is my favorite, love the lime green background..

Delongs and T5
 

I love the Boston Garter and CJ Cobb. Great cards. I picked up these items in the last 2 auctions:

Lionel Carter's 1933 Delong set (Combining my favorite set from the 1930s with the connection to Lionel Carter makes this my favorite set):

Dan,
They're British so they like to mark their spot like a good dog if you know what I mean. The ever so slight oil leak occasionally but other than that, no. I have owned an MGB since 1975 so you have to learn how to work on them. Once you get the electrical issues worked out, they are a labor of love.

Marty congrats!!!!

That looks like an amazing set!!

john- thank you!! like i say i feel like i took the easy road, wish i did it card by card for the fun but still happy to have done it..:D i am in a good position at this point so i decided now, because i may not be able to again. so hence the purchase of a lifetime for me at least...

No easy road taken and take it from a card by card guy of 20yrs...card by card is way overated! :)

a good week
 

I've been busy over the past few days- don't have any in hand yet, but I'm very excited.

Red E98 Vaughn to keep my blue E98 Vaughn company. Thanks Tim.

My First Cobb!
 

Great looking Cobb, congratulations!

M114 from 1917
 

Ebay pickup. My first Felsch.

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g5...114/Felsch.jpg

Got this from Adam M. on the BST...I think this is #89 or 90 in my set. Card by card is the way to go! :)

Edited to add that this is also my 20th Cubs card in the set.

I don't know how many here will really appreciate/recognize this rarity, but I am REALLY excited that I finally found one!

Finally received my 14th Red Sox T206 back type (SC 350 - Factory 25.) Mailed on March 27, arrived today :eek: :

http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q...0f25_stahl.jpg

An upgrade that Ive been seeking for a while.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...er2/img156.jpg

Love the Felsch and that Matty.

Jason, You waited 86 years for a title... One measily month and a few days, to a BoSox fan should be a joy.

Rhett - congrats! Would you mind educating us? outside of the already tough D350 back - what makes this one special?

Josh, nice Matty.

These just came back from SGC:

Jeff amazing stuff!

Picked this up from Ebay: (1934 R & J HILL LTD #48 TRIS SPEAKER-PSA 4)

http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l32/marvjung/tris.jpg

jeff l- very cool cobbs, what a "happy" guy he was..:)

Thanks Jeff.

Nice cobb issues as well - do you know the story behind the football squad? What was his relationship to the team, etc.?

Interesting, that's the same pic as on the Susini.

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g5...0/susinix3.jpg

Hiya Jack - yuppers, it's the same pic; someone has a Susini up on Ebay now of the same pic, but I passed on it due to condition - I'm pretty sure if you do a search, you'll see it come up. Personally, I just thought it was one heck of a cool card and couldn't pass it up :)

Picked this up in REA and just got it graded by SGC yesterday...........

Not as stunning as those preceding treasures, but I'm stoked with this upgrade. 1/3 and I know where to find the other two (:

Thanks to Rawn H.

Steve -

I consider it stunning.

What a great card!

Very cool Steve, do you have a better scan?

Won this last night. It completes the variation set of 7 Loberts in the E94 (red, blue, olive, forest green, gold, violet and orange). ;)

Thanks Joe, Jeff... Fresh photo added. Sorry, no scanner.

Bob, nice E94

I may have another one for sale if there is any interest. We can't let Steve have all of the fun.

Quite the awesome Sox PC Steve! Speaking of Red Sox, here's a few of my Late April/Early May pick-ups -

Thanks Jay!

Glad to finally find a Matty in my price range! The Cobb was something I've had my eye on for a while. I'm really happy this month!!

That Mathewson is a stunner for the grade! Congratulations!!

E121-80's
 

Combination of what I won from Heritage and cards I just got back from being graded.

Thanks Doug...It has a small impact blow on the back that has caused a minor "tear" on front, but no creases and fairly sharp corners. I think it is such an iconic image of Matty. I had been watching these for a while and finally knew I would be satisfied with this one. Someday when I'm rich...I'll upgrade...lol.

Thanks Frank
