Thanks Mike. Nice T207s. First Thomas/Napoleon I've ever seen and that Block is incredible in that grade. Non-207 collectors don't know that Block is the toughest of the Recruit backs and to find one above a 3 is almost unheard of. Good job.

Tough 1962 Topps Famous Americans Gehrig Stamp...

My First Fan Craze card which is another of the 1909 Pirates I collect. Just won it on the bay. Excited to get it!

Got the one I wanted in set break. Love Ed Walsh cards in general--great face and uniform.

I was very excited that this card finally arrived in my mailbox today after being shipped two weeks ago.

Ooooooo.... Nice Plow Boy!

Congrats, I was the low bidder on the Tener...

Can you say New York twice?!
 

Just picked up this beauty! I love how the whole New York logo is shifted and there are two of them. You can also see the ghosting on the face in person and the ghosting of the shoulder and head.

It's not a t206, but......
 

Yes, I know it isn't a t206, a rare back or a printing error, but look what I found in the mailbox today!

I can't thank David enough!

Only three more to go to complete the set.

nice cards Barry!!

Some great cards in this thread and it's still early in the month.

Great Cards! You're almost there!

Taking a break from the rookie project and added a little pre-war to the mix:

My recent pickup off the forum. Old Red is from Ebay.

Joe was looking for some shoes

Scrapps 1888 die-cut, certainly a first for me.

Thanks to BL & CN
 

A couple of combos you don't see every day.
If Hinchman was reholdered it would become the one and only EPDG in the POP report.

Looks much better in hand, or in paw I should say.<br><a href="http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a47/zouraspm/?action=view&amp;current=IMG_4545.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a47/zouraspm/IMG_4545.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Pete,
great card. on my list - someday... Enjoy.

Bat off Cobb - PSA 5
 

Mike,

That Bat off Cobb is a killer! Nice pick-up!

Jon
Agreed

I forsee the last 3 cards coming to you soon...maybe in one fell swoop! Nice Matty!

Can we start a separate pickup thread for non-T206s? :p

Seriously though, great cards!!!
JimB

All I found in the mailbox today was a credit card bill and a gas bill. I'll throw in a T206 rare back and a printing error if you're interested in a straight trade.

Regards,

Richard.

James Joseph "Jimmy" Byrnes 1910 Obak
 

This 1910 Obak arrived tonight. Great colors.

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

You are most welcome! Glad I could help you find a couple of these.

Cheers,
Blair

Been after an affordable one of these for about nine years, not the prettiest card but glad to have it. Thanks to Clean Sweep Auctions for super speedy service and SGC for their lightning quick work as well.

Couple recent pick-ups

Picked up at Chantilly show.

wow, nice Novelty!

WOW, Ken, great WaJo postcard!

Also, very nice GCA RC, Paul.

Another for my portrait collection........
 

Gosh, Ken, if I had realized when we spoke at the Chantilly Show last night that you were so serious about acquiring this NoVelty Cutlery PC of WaJo, I would have offered you mine at half the asking price of this one!! :D

Just teasin' ya! Seriously, I'm very happy for you that you were able to pickup this WaJo, given the amount of enthusiasm I sensed you had for it - CONGRATS!
Best,
Val

Nothing to spectacular but a little bit of a name on top. And the fact that it was in a pile of leaves in my front yard for 4 days. My kids were playing in the leaves and brought it in to me. I think the mail lady dropped in when she cuts thru my yard. It made it thru ok though.

Jon
Interesting about the mail lady

My first Hindu
 

I've been able to pick up a few cards I need in October, but this one is my favorite. Thanks Adam!

I received this card in the mail today. It seems I'm turning into a type collector.

Best regards,

Joe

My first pick-up post..... Picked up a handful of T206 HOFs recently. These are a couple of them.

This Shoeless Joe Jackson School Notebook is awesome! Flipping through it is like stepping in a time machine. Thanks Greg!

Beautiful Jackson Notebook! Ironic that someone who could hardly write his name was featured on the front of a school notebook.

great observation.

not too much this month. just a few cheapies:

Nice haul.

Been awhile since I was active on N54! So glad to be back! My first pickup...

Couple more
 

Couple more pickups from a buddy of mine... I love the Rizzuto!

Picked up a nice t206 Hans Lobert.

Welcome back!
 

Welcome back, Jimi!

Thanks, Mike!

Picked up earlier in the month on eBay from none other than Dan Mckee (Thanks, Dan!). I'll typically collect HOFers and cards with color, but one can't deny the simple charm of a nice OJ with good contrast.

beautiful OJs, Chuck! Love the strong images.

Just got this in today, a tougher Shibe Park postcard of the third-baseline stands - tough to tell w/the small pic but there is a Ringling Bros advertisement in the background

A card I finally got around to taking a picture of.<br><a href="http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a47/zouraspm/?action=view&amp;current=t205mattyab2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a47/zouraspm/t205mattyab2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Pete,

Love that AB Matty!!

Nice pc Rob, think I was the under-bidder on that one. You need to find the Polo Grounds counterpart now.

Just got this from Craig Diamond.

The last hall of famer I needed :D

I picked up three new backstamps for my backstamp project this month. The "Smith" and "Alfred Hudson" are new to me. The other one I have several documented so far. I'm excited to have two new ones for the project.

Thanks a lot,

t206
 

I just picked this up yesterday. I think the writing was done in the teens or twenties.

I also picked up the Magee error a couple of weeks ago.
