Really tough Old Mill...👍
 

Not sure if I'll keep it, but happy to snag one of the toughest old mills in the set.

Number 397 rejoins some of his buddies…
 

Cassidy was one of the large number of cards auctioned first by Goldin then Scott last fall. Eric bought several cards from Scott, and as he finds upgrades, he’s been kind enough to sell the back-stamped ones to me.

Cassidy is card 397 towards the complete set, and numbers 398 and 399 from the Huggins and Scott auction will be joining soon.

Currently bidding on number 400, and it’s a biggie!

Thanks to all on the board for your help and support over the years.

Minuses:

Trimmed.
Stained.
Back damage from removal from an album.

Plus:
Hard obscure card to find from the 1915 W-Unc.

Final math: Happy.

This was an REA pickup.

Jim, very nice T213-2 Cobb pickup - looks nice than its grade to me.

Kitson E107

Fantastic E107 Cat.

-
H&S pickups.

Picked up my first Elite 11

Nice T213-2 Red Cobb, JIMC. That's a good one to have.

Thanks Rob and Val for the kind words. Val, I don't have the card in hand yet but I agree with you the picture looks very sharp for the grade.

Pickups
 

My birthday is coming up in 2 weeks so my wonderful bride agreed to the purchase of a few smaller cards.

Really excited about this track card, Lord Burghley. He was an Olympic hurdler and the inspiration behind Lord Lindsay in one of my favorite movies, Chariots of Fire!

Starting to get close to the end. All HOFers and shortprints are now accounted for. Thanks again to the anonymous board member for grabbing the Miller Huggins at the National for me!

M116 Mordecai Brown Pastel PSA 6
 

Pretty excited to nab this M116 Mordecai Brown in a PSA 6. The pastel background version is actually a little more rare than the blue background. To date, 45 combined copies have been graded between PSA and SGC. This copy has a PSA pop of 6, with only 3 higher (all 7s) and only 1 higher (7) through SGC.

went big at the August buzzer

Just picked this guy up.

Love it

Crappiest pickup of the month, but I can't recall the last time I got a baseball T card for only $5+$1.69 shipping! Thought those days were done. Camnitz was a great pitcher in 1908 and 1909, mediocre the rest of his career

Nice stuff, everyone. Just picked this up.

Nice Mike.

This guy arrived today.

Mike - hope all is well - that’s a great 3!

I've told myself to never buy postcards but damn I love these. I may need to make an exception. Great get!

Congrats, Ryan. That's a beautiful card.

+1. Great card, Ryan.


Here's something I can afford :)

Wow and Wow.

Congrats great card. And super Rare.

When you get bored with it let me know

https://d1htnxwo4o0jhw.cloudfront.ne...jBYXhZ4rqg.jpg

I guess a "new acquisition" as I just got it back from PSA...

Ryan - great eye!! Huge pickup.

This was a nice way to close out the month.

Ryan, Judson- thanks guys!

Ryan, that Ruth is very special, congrats!
