Jason, nice pickup on the E121/80 of Baker with the reverse (printing reads bottom to top) back - don't see many of these.

Picked this up from a board member, thanks Ben!!
Attachment 193876

nice stamps Brian!

Finally got my 1939 R303A Ted Williams, after just missing out on several!
(sorry, no scanner yet). Has great eye appeal, with no apparent creases, which is somewhat unusual for this fragile issue, but does have a slight tear on the lower left.

Best to all,

Larry

Thank you, Pete.

Signed T206 Reprint
 

Picked up my seventh T206 Livingston reprint, signed by Livingston. Can anyone tell me if they've ever seen a T206 reprint signed by another player?

Attachment 193936

...all born in Montreal.

Just picked this up. The little line underneath the word "Federal" is actually a tiny piece of plastic shaving - which I managed to shake out beyond the inner baffles. Disclaimer; this is not MY scan (I don't want to wake up in the morning facing a federal indictment due to the setting of my scanner...). :)

@ Herb very nice Smith !!! I don't collect CJ's but this is a card that I'd like to get.

Upgrade To R314 Type 2 Greenberg

...cringe-worthy centering but a much better surface....this version doesn't come up on E-Bay for years and years and now so far this year there are three appearances.....odd.

Picked up my first double name T206. I've been wanting one for awhile.

Picked up this Curtis Wheat wire photo. Curtis and Mack Wheat were brothers of Zach Wheat. Oops put in wrong section.

A new Piedmont 42!

"None higher," as they say. Via board member.

2 Ruth kind of month

W572 Ruth

From the Goodwin Auction
 

I was happily surprised to win my first Cy Young card of any kind in last night's auction.

Attachment 194191

Nice one, Jeff.

Nice Ruth, Ken.

New York Giants 1933 ---R-309 Premium 1934
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...GIANTS_NEW.JPG


...only a few wrinkles on the surface and still has the easel on the back....this is not the cheapest way to collect Hubble and Ott though....

..

Excellent cards. I've always liked that Glasscock card, best 19th century card IMO. Why did it only grade a poor? There must be back damage.

From Goodwin last night...

Nice card

A First
 

Thanks Sean! It's always exciting for any collector when they get their first ;)

Lenox
 

I can only dream of having a Lenox that clean, beautiful card, congrats.

WaJo an Hindu Carey
 

Just back from PSA.....thanks T!

Happy with both, but only keeping WaJo.

Attachment 194242

With thanks to Mark M., I'm thrilled to have picked up these scarce 1943 & 1944 Centennial Flour cards of Byron "By" Speece for my collection of all the players on the 1924 Senators World Series Championship team. Until I very recently learned of these cards (I'm still looking for Speece's 1945, and last, Centennial Flour card), it was my belief that the only card that of Speece that was issued during his playing days was his 1924 Diaz Cigarettes card (a Cuban issue).

Speece had a brief MLB career. In 1924, his first year in MLB and only year with the Senators, Speece appeared in 21 games and had a 2 - 1 record with a 2.65 ERA. His only W.S. appearance was for 1 inning in Game 3, in which he gave up 1 run to the Giants. However, in 20 minor league seasons, he won 224 games vs. 162 losses. In 1943 & 1944, at ages 46 and 47, Speece won a total of 23 games and pitched 30 complete games - they don't seem to make 'em like this anymore!

Lol!

Ha, awesome Jeff!

That's hilarious.

A major upgrade to my M116 Cubs team set
Attachment 194273

Way to go Daryl! Great pickup. Keep on truckin'

Thanks, Danny!

I've always liked and kept my Doolin "error" card. Now, I've picked up a Schulte/front, that, imo, has to have been from same owner.

Got to love the stats, and even his nickname :)

Attachment 194325

Finally got a Merkle throwing card !!!!!! I know it's more like 3/4 of a card but it's a Tolstoi and in my price range !!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-11-T206...vip=true&rt=nc

Also got a "toughie" in my price range. George Browne (correct spelling of his last name) for $30

http://www.ebay.com/itm/301655374532...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I have mixed feelings about that one.

Nice Scott, There is an old thread where it was determined who the original owner was, although I forgot who :D

Daryl, Gotta love the glove in the back pocket...stellar!

Jeff...that ball fits you perfectly :eek::cool:

I'm glad you got a Merkle Josh. I didn't realize it was such a big card for you.

How nutty are you going to get when you pick up your first Cobb? :D

Well a Merkle in one whole piece would have been better lol. I just won't be able to get one and feel right about spending $100 + on that card. IMO it's one of the best looking cards in the set. Certainly in my top 10 maybe even top 5.

Cobb ........... If I get one lol. Yeah I'd probably go pretty nutty :D



@ Mike that's a sweet looking Dougherty !! :D

A new issue for me, and my latest Keeler.

Picked up 4 of the 5 Chase's. Anybody got a decent PSA white cap lying around?

Great looking Chases, Aaron!

I decided to upgrade my Walter. Please excuse the poor quality scan. The white dots are on the scan, not on the card.


Attachment 194500

FedEx delivered these dry even in the middle of Tropical Storm Bill. Thanks...

I LOVE that Cobb! McGraw is really nice too.

Is that the only ball it signed?


Why, that signature is so shaky, you would think they cut off his...oh, yeah, they did, didn't they?

He doesn't have a very good signature for a he-she....

There should be two Jenner balls available.:eek:

My t205 additions for the month Hoblitzell is (no cinn incorrect version)

My first T3, courtesy of LOTG. It previously resided in a PSA 1 holder until about five minutes ago. If anyone else has beautiful T3s with pinholes for sale for under $100, I'm your guy.

Haunted by Toad
 

Hey, I got my Toad... finally (Thanks, Chris).

My next goal is to visit his unmarked grave, if I can find it. Then I will contact his spirit with my Ouija Board and let him haunt my house for as long as he likes.

Always loved this card...rare well-centered one...


http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1434680514

Arrrrrrr Greg, I was the underbidder on that, I should have gone higher, you got a great deal. Nice pickup.

Dan, so sorry, but "all in the family." Price might have been depressed by some eBay problems tonight...or just that some of the "e" cards depressed in general....

Forget the pinhole - check out that huge crop mark on the upper right corner of the back! That alone is pretty cool (as is the rest of the card, minus the pinhole anyway :) )

Yeah I didn't notice that during the auction, just saw it for the first time tonight. I haven't handled many T3s so I didn't know if it was particularly unusual or not.

My Goodwin auction pickup:

http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps8cybynje.jpg

Apparently the paper loss on the front most of scared most collectors away, but I'll take it for now in hopes of one day seeing a nicer one or another rare back.

Let's see a scan as soon as you can.

Now, remember, if the response you get from your Ouija Board is 'Ribbit', you really got in contact with 'Toad'....however, if the response is 'Rubbit', it's just some pervert. :p

My 3rd T205 and my first T205 Piedmont 42. I have always liked this card.

Funny, I added a scan using the 'Insert Image' option. It shows up for me but not others? Perhaps this works, clydepepper?

This scan works much better. :)

You have a lovely Toad!

I didn't get the Red Hindu that I wanted in the last Goodwin auction, but I did get this:

Yes I know it is beat and ugly, but also not that common :)

Thanks to some board members these now reside in my collection. Thanks guys.

T227 Cobb Miners Extra
 

Trying to find one for under a grand was a long wait but worth it. Glad to add it to the collection.

Cobb
 

Nice pickup! That is a major bucket list card for me. Congrats on landing it!
