Huge pickup for me tonight. I managed to snag the 13 card T206 Southern Leaguers lot on ebay. Among the 13 were a few of the toughest SLers to find, including Manion, Hickman, Revelle, Greminger, and Kiernan. 10 of the 13 had the OMSL back, and I want to have all of the SLers with an Old Mill back, so that was just an added bonus. Thrilled.

Nice grab. I'm also going pretty heavy after SL'ers right now...I forgot about this auction. :confused:

Beaters are ok with me when chasing this set. Also like the Old Mill image on the front of Joss

I came across a 1938 Dizzy Dean Service Station Card yesterday and snapped it up. I haven't seen one before. It meets my criteria of a unique, oddball card. :)

I think this card is the same one that was sold in 2012: https://brockelmanauctions.com/lot-3800.aspx

The last T202 I needed to complete my set, and it looks pretty nice for the grade.

Nashville card show pick-ups
 

I was disappointed in the vintage available at the show yesterday in Nashville until I got to the last row. I should have started there I guess. Nothing too major, but all raw and affordable... just the way I like 'em!

Some upgrades to my complete set:

Great pickups Jamie!!

Picked up a few cards in an auction, including this 1939 Play Ball of Lefty Gomez. The card has some white shmootz on the front of it. Anyone have a guess what that could be or how to clean it off?

That nose!

Goose sure had a real honker!

Picked up another catcher T210.

1911 T3 Turkey Red Addie Joss
 

I am thrilled to finally add a 1911 T3 Turkey Red to my Cleveland Baseball Type Card Collection! None other than HOF pitcher Addie Joss! The card presents well with no creases, and only reasonable corner wear, a surface blemish front and back, a bit of "checklisting" on the back, and an obvious yet well-centered pinhole. The pinhole is probably distracting to many folks, but I consider myself lucky to have found this card in otherwise great condition and made affordable due to that pinhole. I imagine some kid tacking it to his wall in 1911, or maybe a tobacco store made a grand baseball display with a bunch of T3s - either way it gives me great joy to contemplate its journey to my collection!

Wow Ryan, fantastic pickup and great looking Ruth

Wow, incredible card, Ryan. Great pickup!

Uh, yeah, well….anyway, here’s my new Obak…..

.

What a phenomenal card. Congrats Ryan. I enjoy your Ruth collection a ton!

Thanks guys. Ed, you are funny! (I hope all is well)

Nice, colorful Obaks are always a welcome sight, and your Smith makes it into my top 100 (I have a lot of favorites) Obak cards.

I won five cards in the Brockelman Auction Contest last week and wanted to share my favorite of the bunch. Very happy to add a Kid Gleason to my collection. Thank you Brian!

No Problem...even the Kid looks somewhat pleased at this fortunate turn of events.

Amazing pickup Ryan :eek::eek::eek:

Got the Warhop Coupon from Brockelman Auction, Hofmann Koester from Brian Van Dorn and Hargrave photo from PWS. Not a bad month for me.

Congratulations Dave, knocking it out of the park on T206 acquisitions this month.

Just picked up these 2 nice T210s. I am now down to needing only 3 more to have the entire Ft Worth team.:)

Member pick-up, thank you Bob. West Coast type additions.

Pinholes or not, glad to add this and and two other two other Series 6 cards to get that much closer to Series 6 completion!

I landed my first 1914 Cracker Jack as well as my first Big Ed Walsh card. Man, the stock on these is SO THIN, I've no idea how they survived the past 100+ years.

Nice color on that CJ!!

Congrats on a nice looking Joss! I share your joy in finding Turkey Reds with low technical grades but great eye appeal. Enjoy it!

New collecting venture- Hank Greenberg cards! First few recently picked up over the weekend!

Welcome home!!

Hey Josh,

That Jennings with the upside down miscut Tolstoi back is awesome. Nice pick ups bro!

My 16th T206, picked up from REA

Thank you to Eric Phillips in helping me obtain this special addition to my Greenberg PC.

1931 Metropolitan Studios
 

A Dean rookie from the BST.....

lots of pretty cards

This is one of my favorite Gehrig images, and I'm glad I was finally able to add it. Of course, I really wish I had bought this card a few years ago (or not flipped the one that I did own for a short while). Hopefully, I'll be able to pickup the 1934 Goudey variation one day.

Wow, what a stunning card! Congratulations!

Bill

That's my favorite Gehrig card image; nice pick!

Nice card!

Thanks, everyone!

My First Card of the Not So New Year

Nice addition to your collection Jeff, congrats.

Just got these back from the grader.

Jeff, your V61-1 of Ruth is a real beauty. I've seen lots of 4s that don't look this nice.

Great card, Ryan! Congratulations on the pick-up.

Nice Jeff, congrats!

Great grab. Greg and I discussed this card so glad it went to a awesome pc.

Nice pickup, Jeff! The Type I's are really fragile, so it's difficult to get this card in this nice a condition that you have.

Thanks Phil (love that Keeler), Val, Jay, Ryan, Josh(sadly or happily I am glad I talked faster than you), and Gary. Always like the pose and I really do like the eye appeal on this one.

Another Great month for our Forum members. With 1 week to go I look forward to see the other great pickups of everyone

Awesome Phil, congrats!

Fantastic cards Phil. Super eye appeal.

Picked this up in last night's Sterling auction for the minimum bid of $60 incl AH fee. Love these cards for the photos. Surprised no one else was interested.

Got my hands on this Elusive Card from my Bucket List that I can finally add to the Joe Jackson Family

A raw BST pickup just back from PSA -- much nicer in my biased opinion -- as E220s seem particularly difficult to find well centered.
