Thanks and appreciated everyone

The hardest part was waiting until I found one with the combination of eye appeal and grade that I wanted.

And it looks like it has been another strong month for the forum members with new pick ups.

And with 2 weeks to go looking forward to seeing more.

Look out, Mr. Pitcher!

Love that Fro-Joy.

jeff, that is a great looking E121 Ruth. Congrats.

Great cards everyone, nice caramel Crawford ! Love the e121 Ruth and that Goudey Ruth. Nice t205 Cobb Leon

I've been after this card for years. Truly one of a kind. And tough combo to boot.

Outstanding! I have the Lajoie in SGC 4. Pop 8. What’s the pop on your Crawford?

I had to look as I wasn't even sure.!!!

Wow! Only 6 graded with 1 higher!

Dave and Jay very nice cards

Love have crisp the Red is on the Crawford

A big T3 pickup for me. This card has very rarely been offered for sale in the past six months (AFAIK), in my grade/price range or really any grade, so I was really pleased to pick up a nice copy.

Thanks Chuck and Leon! Nice Dunn!

Thanks Erick, same to you. Congrats on the Ruth! I really like the large font.

First T206
 

I realize this is almost heretical on this page, but this is my very first T206 - I got it because it's my wife's favorite player, and of course he doesn't have a T205 card:

The upgrade... That is a surface scratch in the lower area not a wrinkle, though it looks the same.
Thanks Peter!

An Elite 11 mail day

Nice ones, added another Sweeney.

Congrats Ed! Nice #181 :)

+1 Nice Ruth and the Green POP's

This was in the last REA auction and apparently was trimmed a little on the top and bottom, but I'm happy to add it to the T205 set I'm working on.

Nice! I almost bid over you late on that one, but turned my attention elsewhere last minute. Glad it worked out this way. Congrats!

Chad, I'm glad you found something else to spend your money on. :)

1921 Ruth
 

Picked up a batch of 28 E121's early last month.....all in poor, but presentable condition except for this Ruth which was in REALLY poor condition as some kid back in the day loved this card to death!! He probably kept it in his pocket everyday for a year and somehow a crease didn't cut through Babe's face, which is a miracle.

PSA wouldn't slab it according to their customer service rep because the graders noted 'it was too fragile' even after the card saver II it was returned in had a 1 (mk) notation under the 'No Grade' flip.

Glad to see SGC came through!!

Congrats Matt on both the card and the perseverance with getting it graded.

That is still a nice looking Ruth and even with the condition I think he presents fine.

Nice addition to you collection.

I'm a Collins collector so I was really happy to get this one.

Missing the Pattee as well, picture coming soon.

Okay and this one …. Blank backs …

I picked up a few Ruths this month. I think I might have posted the Churchman's earlier somewhere, but all 3 are recent pickups, so I figure I might as well post them all together. :)

I also picked up this nifty little dual auto card in the same auction as the Ruths. And since I just can't help myself... I know, I know, it's neither pre-war nor baseball, but it still might be my new favorite card and Halloween is a great day to play show-n-tell.
