Hey Rob

Good job on Tolstoi count

:):):):):):):):)

submissions and purchases
 

It was a great weekend for the incomings, 23 SGC cards to help out various set collecting projects, and two lots from BST guys. One was C46 from Bill Latzko (PSA1 mostly) and some of these old caramels from our friendly fireman's fabulous, fantastic and feral find. Amazing caramel cards from old trunks...who'da thunk it? For the SGC cards I got back, I will post just a couple favorites, the others can be found on my SGC pages http://www.sgccardregistry.com/set.aspx?cat=6&set=463. The familytoad SGC HOF collection just past the 100 card mark so I'm pretty jazzed.

Yes -- and I was really stunned to find it on ebay. Wth?

April 2011
 

Other than small paper loss on front, this card is really nice.. Thanks again Jeff!

April 2011 Pickups
 

Two more towards the set:

Pelty: Was disappointed with crease, will have to do till I can upgrade.

Cravath : Larry Thanks for not outbidding me :D

http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...sApril11-2.jpg

Picked these 2 up on ebay today, a Series 5 and a Series 7. Haven't seen either offered for sale before.

Bob - Nice Pickups ! You actually got 3 names for the price of 2 ! Charlotte teammate, Hayes, is on that Brazell card, I believe... (Hayes was a teammate)

Anywho... The T210's have been taken a well deserved breather of late and I can't wait to see some new hobby collector's start collecting these little gems.

April
 

Love those T-210's guys! Can't wait 'til I get my next one. Picked these up from the BST (Thanks Andy and Steve).

Bender Mania running wild
 

Finally was able to upgrade my E101. So happy Leon won the Cobb Coupon Type 1 so I could get the Bender Type 1 from him, a card I wasn't sure I would ever be able to get ! And thanks to Tony Andrea for the Burke and Atwell Postcard, on the back the sender says to his friend he thought he was coming to the World Series but he didn't miss much as the A's have an unreal group and took care of business real fast !

A few more HOF off the checklist
 

April 2011
 

My First T206 Horizontal!

re: Robert Smith exhibit


No wonder he formed The Cure...playing for Boston must have been pretty depressing !

Greg
That is a great Cochrane pose/view. Excellent.

and Tim
Love the Walter Johnson.

...................great stuff....................

Couple of HOFs and a cented Minor leagear
 

2 cheap - 1 not so much

Hartnett Exhibit
 

Nice group of HOF'ers, Tim. Are you collecting one career contemporary card for each HOF'er?

Jeff: Here's a Burke photo of Gabby Hartnett, Jr. I picked up from Mears a couple of months ago.

Thanks
 

Thanks Phil- actually that is my goal. Having just crossed the 200 mark I updated my signature with links to my collection.

Congrats Jeff- Great Gabby!

That Smith card is definitely GOTH! Not quite as Goth as a T206 Shaughnessy, but Goth nonetheless!

Jeff, nice pickup on the Hartnett. I feel asleep for that one, literally.

Another hall of famer off the list!

Great pickups guys! The Goudeys are courtesy of Steve M. Great Transaction!!!

Hartnett
 

David,
Thank you. I had an unsigned copy already but when I saw it sitting there at that level I threw in a bid.

Jeff

The two best pitchers ever...

1911 Sporting News Supplement Vean Gregg
 

Very happy with this nice condition supplement from the Oaks show this past weekend.

Uggh
 

Thanks Jason, now I remember what I wanted to go back and get Sat. morning!

Diamond Stars...down to 93 needed...
 

I'm trying to focus on centering as it appears the Diamond Stars were, generally speaking, horribly cut!!!

Another Signed T206 For The Collection
 

As a reminder, I'm buying any and all autographed T206 cards, even if I already have them.
