Nice Chase Ad@m!

Love those big borders :)

Thanks to simas7173 for this one!

Wow, Pete! That's some dynamic duo. Big congrats!

After a 3 year search, I got my F Scott Fitzgerald in the mail today. Thanks again to the people on this board for the great advice! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/15/vu8uru5y.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/15/4ajusugu.jpg

Nice bender ben

I was supposed to be taking the month off, but...
 

I know it's not a 1914 Cracker Jack or a T206, but I was glad to work out a deal with a fellow board member for these two cards.

I knew that portrait of Jennings on your card Daryl looked familiar. It is the same portrait that is used on his 1916 Tango Eggs card... Nice cards!!!

Beautiful card Ben.

BTW, what is a "F Scott Fitzgerald" in card lingo? I know he is the famous author, but I am confused about the card being called that.

Intesting looking cabinet Brian

Thank you.

I too am befuddled by your terminology. Please explain.

Thanks Dustin. Jennings appears in this pose in a handful of other sets as well.

Thanks to everyone. Here is a link to a thread I started when I found this card on EBay. There are some very good explanations by some great people on this forum about the "F" stamp and the supposed relation to F Scott Fitzgerald. The debate is still out there, but I chose to be a believer! :)
Worst case scenario, I have a T206 Hall of Famer!

Ben....
 

Great pick up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

get them now before the jerks out there start a rubber stampn':eek:

There's another one of these "F" marked cards on ebay right now, I just don't remember which card it is! I didn't know what the stamp meant at the time until I read this thread and was convinced you bought the card I had seen since I saw it the same day you purchased yours, but it's definitely a different card. Let the hunt begin!!!

I'm happy to get this Lundgren!

Yes, but let's reopen the debate. Does the F stand for F. or for Fitzgerald?

latest pick up
 

New addition to the collection. Going to SGC to be put into a holder that fits better than this I hope.

I was in on the Gehrig, glad you got. I have same in a 7 and yes looks great in SGC holder so do it.

Far from pretty...

Here are my pickups from an antique fair my wife brought me to and found for me... Wouldn't mind trading the T207 for a T206, just inbox me if interested.Attachment 156717

Had one and picked the other up...

Great stuff Leon!

Couldn't resist picking up these from a board member!

Attachment 156759

Attachment 156760

Both very nice Leon, the one on the right being a better match in design to the GQ packs. What are your impressions of the differences between the two (date, original contents, etc.)?

Ahhhh, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It looks awful nice to me. Congrats!

One of my favorite cards ever...

Really enjoy looking at all the pickups, keep them coming!

Picked these 4 up recently.

Thanks to Todd for the nice looking Wally Schang!

I may have heard this before on this board, but doesn't Plank resemble the famous picture of Billy the Kid?

E121 Ruth
 

Glad to have picked this one up.....

I have not posted in a pickup thread in a few months, but yesterday was a very good day at the mailbox. Picked up my first Cracker Jack and finally got a Dave Orr Buchner Gold Coin.

Another catcher S74 colored silk
 

Picked up another colored S74 catcher for my subset, Roger Bresnahan (Mouth closed).


Patrick

happy to pick this one up - add to my slow moving portrait set

E121 Ruth
 

:eek:WOW!! That E121 Babe Ruth is incredible..............That has to be my favorite Ruth card. Would love to pick one up like that.

Andy

I love that Ruth Pickup! Very nice!

I missed out on the nicer/higher graded one in the Sterling Auction, but was able to pick-up this one. Thanks to board member Andrew for letting me know that it was available in the last LOTG auction:

Great pick up, Jason!

Thanks to George Gogol (both father and son) for this one
 

George (the son) is the one we see on the board more often. While going through their combined T206 collection, they found this one in George's (the dad) collection. George reached out to me and yesterday, this beauty arrived to rejoin the other 258 in the rebuilt collection. Thanks again to George II and George III.

The other day, I was writing a little Pirates history article and realized that I didn't have any Woody Jensen cards. It was his birthday, so I said what better day to pick one up. Looking at my three choices on ebay, I couldn't decide, so I bought all three. Same seller, free shipping, total cost: $18.50! Can't beat that. Love the prices on these 1936 Goudey/Fine Pen cards

Glad the card is at home! Enjoy Ed! Thanks for a great transaction. I mailed dad a nice psa 3 Malarkey today, to replace it.
