Pick-ups
 

The Kroh is not an easy common in the E97 set, especially in decent condition. I paid more for the Wells than I would have preferred but it is a toughie in the C46 set and this is the highest ever graded :D Thanks Steve M.

I really like these Large Letter P2 pins so I find myself picking them up from time to time.

Thanks, Mike H.!

A few goodies
 

Excited about these pick ups!

TBOB always loved the LL P2 pins myself especially the HOFers!!!

Nice Trae, do you put a premium on double name cards?

Rawn

Thanks, Rawn - I feel that if it's a full second name, or nearly full, like this Adkins, then it's worth a little something extra, yeah. At $75, I paid an extra 40% or so on this card, mainly because it's as clean as it is. It's an SGC 40, but as you can see it looks better.

I also think that the no names, or name only at the top should fetch a similar premium.

Always wanted one of these.

Hoping to make Trae jealous
 

Just back from SGC this week:

Trae, I'd been watching that BIN, but never pulled the trigger. Good buy!

Thanks, Daryl - I came back to it 3 or 4 times over the past few weeks, and decided today was the day, because I'd be bummed if it showed up as 'Ended' in my watch list. :)

A couple of E90-1's from eBay:

I've been a little backed up with my scanning of pickups. Big thanks to Jeff for the Doby, Rhys for the Heilmann and Paul for the Wagner. All 3 were absolute gentleman in working out deals.

Great grouping of cards there, Matt! Congrats!

Picked this up from Matt Wieder and was very pleased. I've never seen this postcard before and had been looking for an affordable Thorpe baseball image for awhile. Thanks Matt I hope I helped fund some of those great cards you posted.

Teds and a Mickey
 

A few new cards I like.

February Pickups
 

Sweet looking 67 Aaron, Bill!!!

Another pick up for me! I'm Diggin the M101-4 and 5...

I think that Chase will end up getting a 2 but Im pulling for a three!!!

I am relatively new to vintage, but I have been soaking up the information from these boards. I decided to start a lower grade T205 set and just picked up my first card - and I am hooked!

Wow what a great card to start off the T205 set!! Congrats!

Another flea market pickup. Thank You, CJ. Also, Thank You, Ron for the E220 and, from another purchase, the first seven of nine W502s.

Thanks to Paul C for a great transaction!

http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/2...oudeywaner.jpg

Brian,

Congrats on the pick up of some great looking cards! love the W502s!!!

The month started with a BL350 find and led to these: SC350 w/ Stamp & a 2002 Topps T206 P350.

Anymore info on the "Harrold A. Perris" stamp? I've seen a Ramly and another T206 with that stamp. A simple Google search showed he was born in 1904 and died about 2002? "Lake George" NY?

http://i732.photobucket.com/albums/w...6a/downs03.jpg

Lots of nice stuff so far, good to see everybody helping each other out and the multi trades looked like they really worked out well very nice !

I have these two on the way. My first Robby rookie. :)

Agree with Rob, good way to start T205 set by ghooper33.

Going Canadian!
 

I took the plunge and bought a small lot of C46's from cool dude Richard Armstrong back 'round first of the year...and now they are back from NJ, all protected in slabs. I guess I'll wait for tbob to finish his set, then try for more;)
Here are just a few scans.
The others can be see at the link http://www.sgccardregistry.com/galle...1&userset=5875

Thanks to my pal Neal Kublin (greenmonster66) for the Irvin.

Thanks and a tip of the hat to Ken Cohen for selling me these two C46s.
Hi Brian :) Good luck with your set and soon as I get the last handful I need, you'll have a clear field!

This was my end of the trade with Paul Stewart. Like Paul was, I also was extremely happy with the trade!! Thanks, Paul!!!

I guess the Dean is going to Beckett since SGC did not have a holder for it.
Does anyone here know if PSA would be able to holder it?

Very nice, Dan. PSA does not have a holder large enough for the Dean.

Phil, I knew you'd know the answer to that question!

Dan

Dan - nice pickup on the Rice RC!

Picked up this nice card from Ed Woelfle on the B/S/T. Thanks Ed!

Hans and the Chief...

My biggest...

Travis

Wow, awesome card Travis!! What a tough find, Congrats!!!

Thanks Steve...It was a pretty tough find and even tougher to get someone to part with one of these!!!

February Pickups

A big thank you to Phil Garry for this beauty.
I can finally cross this one off my list, Yea!!!!

Johnny....nice pick-up on the JuJu Bender. As Leon said, very tough type card. Probably only a handful of any player out there. Congrats.

Awesome pickup Johnny, congrats!

T212 150 Subjects
 

Who says it doesn't pay to read this Board? In reading the thread about the 1909 Obak Gandil, I checked the seller's auctions and found he had some cards which did not sell, probably because of the insufficient listing. I bought a nice 1910 T212 Briggs which not only has the rare 150 Subjects backs but has a ghost player image on the back, all for less than $50. Not too shabby. :D
