If I had that, I would be tempted to change my name to Paul Brock. Cool.

Nice Upgrade from Clean Sweep:
 

T207 Livingston Large C
 

Thanks to Dan McKee for this Large "C" Livingston T207.

Jeff congrats on that Ruth. Love it.

I picked up this sweet Evers for my e95 set in a good old fashioned trade with a buddy last weekend at the WSSCA show:

E92 Bemis Dockman & Sons (missing color passses)
 

Pumped to have this cool looking E92 Dockman & Sons scrap of Handsome Harry Bemis.

(Check out the separate thread.)

Added my 5th t206

Great stuff
 

As they say, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think having any "scarce" card in any condition is a pretty cool thing, especially when That piece of cardboard is a passion.

Congrats to everyone on their pickups this month, it's great to see everyone's little nugget of gold.

Agreed.....I love my O'Hara.

not even a week in and this thread is flooded with Gems! love it!

Don't get me wrong. I love mine too. I wasnt trying to take away from any of the cards. Im not big on condition prewar. To have one is to have one in my book. The thrill of the hunt is what keeps me going.

Super excited by this pick-up, especially card number 275
 

Several months ago, when Brian let me know that a couple of cards in a large lot of T206s had Howe's stamp on them and they would be in an upcoming REA auction, I was really hoping that I would be able to get my hands on these. Especially the McQuillan, as it is only the second example I've seen that uses Howe's first name, then his middle initial, then the title Agent, Saturday Evening Post. And just like the other, it is stamped in green ink, not the usual black/sorta purple on the other 273 I have, and the 31 I know exist but aren't mine.

I lucked out, and board member Brent was the winner of the lot, and worked with me to add these to the rest in the rebuilt collection.

Again, thanks go to so many people on the board who have helped me with this project.

Remember when...
 

You could read autographs?

This beauty arrived today!

Great combination of a card I've wanted and a fantastic signature:

WOW:eek:

GREAT PIECES everyone else

.

Proud to get this card for only $60.

Picked these two up over the weekend. Start of a new (ambitious) set.

One of the coolest (odd) cards I've wanted.

Holy Schnikes Greg !!

Greg, That is one beautiful card. Thanks for sharing. Marty

It's been a while since I've added any, but my E121-80 set is coming along slowly but surely.

I'm not a grading guy, but one of my favorite Mantle cards was always the '52 Bowman. I just picked this one up. I would like to thank PSA for calling this a 7, and not the 8 that I think they should have called it.

One of very toughest to find in a 7 or 8.

Jason, nice pickup on the E121/80 of Baker with the reverse (printing reads bottom to top) back - don't see many of these.
Val

Thanks Val!

Picked this up from a board member, thanks Ben!!
Attachment 193876

nice stamps Brian!

Finally got my 1939 R303A Ted Williams, after just missing out on several!
(sorry, no scanner yet). Has great eye appeal, with no apparent creases, which is somewhat unusual for this fragile issue, but does have a slight tear on the lower left.

Best to all,

Larry

Thank you, Pete.

Signed T206 Reprint
 

Picked up my seventh T206 Livingston reprint, signed by Livingston. Can anyone tell me if they've ever seen a T206 reprint signed by another player?

...all born in Montreal.

Just picked this up. The little line underneath the word "Federal" is actually a tiny piece of plastic shaving - which I managed to shake out beyond the inner baffles. Disclaimer; this is not MY scan (I don't want to wake up in the morning facing a federal indictment due to the setting of my scanner...). :)

@ Herb very nice Smith !!! I don't collect CJ's but this is a card that I'd like to get.

Upgrade To R314 Type 2 Greenberg
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...G_0002_NEW.JPG


...cringe-worthy centering but a much better surface....this version doesn't come up on E-Bay for years and years and now so far this year there are three appearances.....odd.

Picked up my first double name T206. I've been wanting one for awhile.

Picked up this Curtis Wheat wire photo. Curtis and Mack Wheat were brothers of Zach Wheat. Oops put in wrong section.

A new Piedmont 42!

"None higher," as they say. Via board member.
