Believe me, they look just as good in person. :)

I replaced my own scan for the T201 :D

arrived yesterday, my birthday
 

I got this obak from board member Bob Craik. The write-ups on the back of the 1911's are priceless. But this fellow, Ten Million, was from Washington State, my home. I'm glad to have this card.

Couple of big 'uns and a plethora of small dakine from America's most unfocused want list.

From the b/s/t, thanks Dr. D.

Nice pickups, David! The Old Mill cabinet is amazing.

Well I finally got to my goal for 2009. 100 different T206's. Got these at the Sun Times show in Rosemont from Chris Buckler. Thanks Chris!

Wheat T206
 

Great night for T210s tonight on ebay. One has to wonder if the relatively faint interest was due to ebay's glitches lately.

The rest of tonight's purchases

Nice pick ups Bob ;)

I was happy with what my Series 1's went for (but I could always be "happier") .............. but I was shocked how low some of the 2's went for.

Thanks to Chris on the BST.

I should also mention that Chris threw in this cutout of a '37 Exhibit 4 on 1.
It was much appreciated. I have added a look of the "uncut" 4 on 1, courtesy of "Old Cardboard" for you to view. It makes you wonder where the other 3 ended up.

Zack Wheat Full Signature

Just picked this up...I couldn't pass up a full signature of Wheat! It has to be one of few out there I am guessing.

Signed Stuff
 

That Wheat is awesome -- I love his signature, especially in full.

I just traded a ton of stuff for this gem, originally from the Jeff Morey collection:

Thanks jabiloxi! Came in today.

Can someone confirm the rarity of this?
 

Hi all. Just picked up this Marquard on eBay for $63 delivered. I was looking at the SGC population report and noted that only 9 Marquard 1911 T206 "Follow Through" versions of the card have been graded. This one also includes the Sweet Caporal factory 42 overprint if I am correct. Can anyone confirm the rarity of this card or am I mislead by the pop report?
Edit: I have searched the rest of the Follow Through designs of Marquard currently on eBay and only this one was an overprint back, with only one other being a Sweet Caporal at all. There are two Polar Bears backs too but I believe this back must be a rare one, as the majority were Piedmont.

The items I watched, bid on, and won on Sunday the 22nd went remarkably cheap. Some for half of most recent VCP! I agree with your theory - I think bidders were put off that weekend by the glitches...lucky for me (and for you - nice T210s!).

Cheers,
Blair
