Definitely challenging Todd between the few copies and crazy rising prices.

Thanks Chris. Impressive Chase run you have.

Last month I was lucky enough to pick up seven 1934 goudeys from a good friend ,last week he was kind enough to sell me the rest of the Partial set he had!

All the cards are pretty nice with some being extremely nice ,so I'm now at 67 out of 97 to compete!

E106 American Caramel Mathewson
 

So happy to add this one....thanks Leon! If there was ever a card I was lucky graded what it did, so that I could actually afford it, this is the card.

Great pickups everyone. I just have the Big Head Ruth card. In a weird way, I really like this set.

I'm very excited to finally pick up my first Kashin 5"x7" premiums. I only need one, so I'll be keeping Combs and selling Hogan. (Shameless plug).

My first time posting on the pickup thread, but it felt like when you get your first Cobb, it is something worth sharing and celebrating. From a Heritage auction a few weeks ago

Hmm...image shows up fine for me but maybe not for others. Let's try a new link with public permissions.

Fantastic cards, guys!

I'm very happy to acquire these cards from Jamie B. As you know, he has a few epic runs (Cobb, Seymour, etc), and I'm stoked to get these "extras" from him. Thanks Jamie!

I guess I'm kinda doing a player run now(?)... :)

Joe Jackson Herpolsheimer Company Back
 

1916 Joe Jackson Card with Herpolsheimer Company Back

Whoa... Awesome card!

Jeff outstanding addition Sir, enjoy it for a long time. Saw it up for auction and glad it went to a fellow "54`er".

Thanks. This is going into my collection and staying for a while. I have been looking for this version for a while.

A couple of E95s in my price range.

Nice cards! I also like how you’ve displayed them!

Took me years to get a Tolstoi for my Providence team set. Had no idea how hard these would be to find.

I bided my time for a centered one.

Some great pick ups, including a tough E106 Matty; LOVE the Ruth Big Head; Great Seymour Run; nothing wrong with a green cobb or Tolstoi back. BUT damn, that Herp Jax is awesome! Jeff, I am glad you jumped on that; I just kept looking and glad it went off the market and you were the one who got it (but no Gimbels or Famous Barr......! :))

Added another mounted collection, to my collection, of mounted collections...I love these things so much because it feels like there is no distance between myself and the person who glued these on 110 years ago.

Couple additions today. First completed transaction from Instagram. It's the ways things are headed I guess...

Hi Ryan

I am glad I got that card also. And I will get the Gimbel and Famous Barr at some point again.
Love your Wagner and Team. I put a few bids on it before moving on.
Some amazing card this month for pickups

Got this today as my first purchase from Net54. Thanks Donscards!!

Nice Mays! I picked up something from Net54 BST too, but not nearly as impressive.

A collection of mounted collections? That sounds awesome. A bear to display, I'd guess, but awesome. There's a home for everything. There was a discussion on here a few years ago about a steamer trunk that had the lid lined with (IIRC) T-206s.

Recent arrival

I like the t206 scrapbook page, very cool. Here are a few from this month.

Shoeless Joe Auto
 

Happy to add one of the most impossible autos on the planet:)

Congrats

Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

August defintely had some firsts for me. I went from owning zero prewar cards to three. The first coming from BST, as I was able to pickup this beautiful Butterfinger Jimmie Foxx. Similarly earlier in the month, on my trip up to the Hall, I was able to pick up a 34 Goudey Jimmie Foxx. It's beat to hell and covered in tape, and will defintely be an upgrade candidate down the road, but for now, I'm very happy to have it in my collection. The final Pickup, was my first foray into Tobacco cards. I obtained a Sweet Corporal Back, Eddie Collins. I'm very happy with how cheap his cards are considering he was such a fantastic player. I'm resisting the urge to jump down the t206 rabbit hole however, because I fear it will bankrupt me!
