I guess this is where I show off newly purchased postcards:

C.1910

There's a lefty pitching so I had to grab it.

Got my first T206 Red Cobb in the mail today thanks to a fellow member.:)

It fit 2 of the 3 things I wanted in a Red Cobb. It has a great red color instead of the ugly to me orange ones. His eyes are also looking to his right, not sure why my version of OCD does not like the ones when he is looking to his left. I wanted a Old Mill back but this awesome example will work.

Nice Cobb Ben and cool postcard Robbie!

I know it's I didn't realize this was for pre war only pickups until the Post below me. So I'll delete here and post in the Post war section.

Not prewar but very excited to pick up this Jackie from another board member.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...61271ffc09.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d24e6a8317.jpg

Very nice, Ben.

Really enjoyable pickup this week from a great Board member -- and it's a biggie!
Now at 509/520 in PSA 4-5. Closing in on the Monster...

Jason: Nice work. I didn't know you were building a Monster. You should post pics, especially if they all have the eye appeal you're known for.

Hey thanks Sam! It's been a really fun project that has taken off the past year or so.
Set has been built with Centering in mind, as well as for eye appeal.
about 95% is PSA, the rest SGC, and with the only cards below a 4.0 being the O'Hara & Ed Foster (both 3's).

Here's a sampling of a few of the cards, at your request!

Touch'EmAll 03-28-2020 12:01 PM

Jason, very nice Walter Johnson portrait, great color and centering.

Not too often you get to post cards from an unknown issue, thanks to Ryan for making them available. All Cuban players with Major League clubs, obviously made for that market although the backs indicate an English speaking audience, more questions than answers.

Dibut and Acosta I don't believe ever had a card issued picturing them with their Major League clubs other than these (Palmero's only US issue is a Postaco Stamp). They all had Cuban cards issued but these are great (even with the damage)...

Picked up this cool LA train ticket with an advertisement for the PCL's Opening Day in 1940 with Chuck Eisenmann pitching. I've seen a few of these before and have been on the lookout for a while:

Pecos, Texas Find

Picked up my very first Red Old Mill, and a Hofer to boot, from the very rare Pecos, Texas find. A prominent oil family in the valley has held these cards in gem mint condition since their grandfather collected them from red Old Mill cigarettes packs in the early 20th century. Enjoy...

Luke 04-01-2020 10:41 AM

Nice Rob. I'd had my eye on that one but couldn't pull the trigger.

RCMcKenzie 04-01-2020 11:28 AM

Thanks, Luke.

Like Colin Quinn says, tough crowd, tough crowd. It was my feeble attempt at an April Fools Day joke. Back to the drawing board for next year...Rob
