SGC's pop report is all over the place when it comes to these PCs. I see only two Cubs team graded (my 50 and a 30) but I wouldn't be surprised if there were more. I actually bought mine raw.

Toss up for me between these 2...
http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...s991304f2.jpeg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...s924dcdfd.jpeg love them both... too bad they consumed most of my card budget for the entire year :) |
I know it pales in comparison to some of the other items posted in the thread, but the Thorpe Olympiska Spelens postcard was my best pickup of the year. I missed on a couple examples of the Thorpe 1912 "Olympic Heroes" shot-putting postcard that I have wanted for a while.

Ty Cobb real photo postcard
2 Attachment(s)
Probably this real photo postcard of Ty Cobb because it's such a nice image. For more early baseball postcards and paper visit http://www.sportingoregon.com . Always buying!
The back story: The spectator who snapped the photo wrote on the back, "I may not be able to Ty Cobb but I can snap him. Taken at the Wilkes Barre and Detroit game Sunday, Sept. 24-11." Just before the end of the 1911 season, at about the time the Detroit Tigers were eliminated from the pennant race, the Tigers visited Boulevard Park for a game with the home town Wilkes Barre Barons, champions of the New York State League. The Tigers prevailed 3-2. Cobb went 0-3, so this image probably shows him recording an out. His teammate Sam Crawford was 4-4. Behind the plate that day for the Barons (and behind Cobb in this image) was Joe Briger, whose minor league career spanned 1907-1925. |
I am thankful to Michael Brailey for parting with a N300 Kinslow. Thank you sir.

Im very thankful I was able to pick up a 15 card T210 Orange Border Lot including 9 I needed at the time. The pickup moved me to 17-20 of the subset and has stalled ever since. Made a play at a Munsell this month but was the underbidder. As for a single card the half Yellow Border Jones as rough as it is is the one this year. Not to many yellows out there im glad to have at least a partial example. Great cards everyone. Nice Benny Mike!

Even a football card guy can appreciate baseball cards once in a while. This is my favorite pickup from 2014.

1924 Diaz Johnny Couch. I don't have a scan of it, but I looked for that one for a few years before finally picking it up this summer.
