What is on the back? :)

Gabby Hartnett, 1932 Fleer "Whiz Bang Gum"....apparently these were not known to exist until a find a few years ago...only 3 baseball cards in set, Grove, Goslin and Hartnett... only 4 Hartnetts in all and this is only one graded. No idea of ultimate value but fun...The two tiny holes in his cheeks were to hold string, for hanging card? pulling it like a kite?

cool! were those "found" in that crazy old candy distributorship "find" of lots of unopened early 30's stuff?

Horseshoe Tobacco made by Drummond. Something to chew, while going through your T206 cards back in the day.

.

This is my new favorite "card" in my Pittsburgh collection. I've seen it a couple of times, but never with this particular ad back:

Nice card Jason, I was the under bidder on that with the PWCC auction that just ended.

Pick Ups
 

Just got these back from SGC. 1909 World Champion Pirates.

Thanks Jay. Yeah, I was pretty much "all-in" on it with a substantial max bid.

Cool cards Marty! Nice to see other Pittsburgh collectors out there.

May Pickups
 

Picked up this nice Johnson Portrait - replaced my PSA 4.5. I love centering.

+2 on centering. Personally I think it makes cards looks so much better than others with regular centering. Gorgeous card, congrats on that addition.

Cobb
 

My two recent pickups...

Wow. Page 7 started strong. Beautiful WAJO and nice Cobbs.

e107
 

While I know it isn't perfect, it's my first e107

Finally added this one to my Cubs collection

Nice one Greg! I was thinking about that too, great-looking card.

My first REA win. I know it's low grade but I think it has nice eye appeal.No creases or wrinkles.

beauty eh!

Very nice '34 Gehrig portrait! Hoping to add that card to my collection as well. Congrats!

Congrats! I was the underbidder on that one. Still a good deal I think.

Like a May pick-up!
 

Just found it. I misplaced this card about 2 years ago.

E107
 

Congrats Greg!

Nice cards this month, y'all. That 1914 CJ Cobb is great..Still slogging through the T213-2 set, about halfway now..

Added 2 more this week from the Bay.

Able to snag this one off the Bay (PWCC) from the recent high grade set.

Interesting that there are no 9s or 10s ever graded by PSA or SGC for the entire series.

Some Cobbs
 

Added these this month...

Jeez, that WAJO PSA 6 and Cobb Red SGC 80 are sick. So jealous.

Nice pickups!!

These came this week. Was surprised got Stahl at price I did from PWCC.

Sooooo psyched to add my newest card. A real toughie. Hi Bell died in 1949, so only a 15yr window to sign the card. Now at 81/96

May Pickups
 

Picked the yellow one from up from recent PWCC to compliment my earlier red purchase this month. Got the Ruth bug!!

Very nice, they go well together.

Picked up this Zach Wheat Old Mill T206. Still looking for a Red Hindu Wheat also.

Happy winning the lot of 85 E90-1 in Heritage last night.

Of course, mainly going to be dupes (maybe some upgrades) .....

.... However, added 8, to bring total to 111 :) Including the semi tough Buster Brown, and Dougherty. As well as the "image tough" Dots "Big Glove / Hit it to my Right" Miller......


.............. BUT .................. THIS IS THE BIG ONE:

Tough, tough, tough, tough card. I mean tough. ;)

When I get it in hand, be interesting what's up with "Pitts" printing,

Fun stuff, Scott

BTW, tough card :rolleyes:

upgraded my Ruth pose exhibit. Maybe Ruths best image on a card...

Very happy to pick this one up, especially at the price......a card I've been really wanting for a while.

Will also have a new stack of EPDGs that I will have to sort through. ;)

A couple of Mickeys.

That's a real nice looking card. Some lower grade (but nice looking) E107's went for big bucks last night on Heritage.

.

It's great to only wait until 11:30pm to find out you won a lot! Thought it went for a good price too. Excited!

great ruths...love the exhibit...the gehrig and that crofts crawford is spectaclar.

not sure if I've shown this recent pick up!

So far my collection is almost exclusively post-war, but apparently I got lost yesterday and ended up in the pre-war world and bought myself a Merkle at a local shop.

Love the Crawford!!

Lovin that card

My first Cobb. Thanks, Scott!

Congrats Robert!

E125 American Caramel - George Gibson

Thanks Brian.

Dueling snipes on this PWCC highest graded Speaker ran it up, but I love it anyway. I think Polar Bear is my favorite back. #catchingT206fever

a couple more for the Crandall run. The Old Mill is actually more difficult than a Red Hindu for Crandall w/hat and the Polar Bear is about as difficult as a Crandall RH
