T207 subset progress
 

Thanks to board members, the wantlist thread, auction houses, and eBay - most of these are Feb, early March, or still coming in.

Progress finally picked up on a number of T207 subsets:

Bushelman (eBay) completes the Broadleaf subset for me [50/50] ... Lewis no-emblem is not realistic.

Marquard (eBay) makes 10/13 HOFers with Napoleon back.

Higgins (LOTG) and Wood (board member/want-list) are 43 and 44 respectively of the 49 known Recruits with Anonymous back.

Other miscellaneous stuff....

Sweeney is one of the few known Broadleaf class blank-backed cards

and last, but certainly not least, my favorite upgrade of the year for the graded set...

Much more progress than I expected for the whole year. Though its just March, I'm pretty much done till next year, but that's OK. (unless someone has a Livingston 'Big C', Factory 606 they're looking to put in a good home... ;););)

A big thanks to everyone one of you that has made collecting T207 enjoyable once again.

The latest additions to my Pittsburgh Collection:

Jason, that's an awesome turkey red. I loved him in Wedding Crashers!

Thanks Dan. It's funny that you said that because I was watching "The Internship" on TV last night while bidding on that Wilson!

Got my first ever Goudey Gehrig

Congratulations, Cole!

Here is another pickup for March:

1950'S Doigaki Menko
 

Pick up these colorful Japanese Menkos when collecting gets slow.

Jeff, That's an awesome collection of EPDGs!

Awesome Jeff! You more than doubled up my attempt. Don't stop!

Glad to have this one!
 

My second Indianapolis player BL350; two more to go:

Beautiful card Erick!

Wow, that EPDG collection is insane!!

Beautiful Joe D :D

My avatar might imply that I'm biased, but nice pick-up Brian. I feel like Batter-Ups were ahead of their time.

Sam,

Thank you. I like your avatar. I also like high number Batter Ups because in a lot of cases stadiums are the backgrounds of the cards. Also, I like Gehringer because, as his nickname of the "Mechanical Man" indicates, he was just a wonderfully consistent player year in and year out.

A trimmed down Baker

Mistaken identity
 

Despite the trim, a beautiful card! I only wish the player pictured was not Cy Seymour misidentified as Home Run Baker.

I'd rather have the Cy Seymour price too

I was going to say, doesn't look anything like Baker.........

D304 Brunners Bread
 

I would have never known these existed, if it wasn't for the fine gentlemen on this board.

Nice Evers Jim! I really like D304's as well.

Cool 41 DiMaggio.

Glenn, that Asian postcard of the babe is beautiful!

Number 288 is back with the others
 

Pete Gustafson let me know about this one. Thanks, Pete.

Thanks.

Nice pick up, Bryan! That's one of my favorite poses from any pre-war card. Hughie Jenning's expression is the very epitome of baseball joy. Nice Cobb CJ, too.

That's a real nice Speaker. Congratulations!

Please, no. Don't tempt the baseball Gods, not until after I add this one to my collection, anyway. :p

The Johnson port will always be in a class by itself, as far as I'm concerned. But I think the Lajoie port is my favorite in the entire set right now. Such a gorgeous card! That's a beautiful add to your collection. Congratulations!

These D304s used to be all the rage. It's a great set with great lithography and rarities with the backs. Congrats on a nice pick up....

Frank Wickware, Jude Gans, Pete Hill (HOF 2006), George Dixon (probably) and Frank Duncan the outfielder, not the catcher who came along a little bit later.

I went to my 1st card show in 10 years today in Ephrata PA. today on a whim.The last couple months I've been considering back into the hobby...well after today I'm officially back in.I've had interest in the T209-1 set for a number of years.It was card karma as Ted Z hooked me up with my first one...15 to go!
And thanks to Greg and Ed for my 1st T206 in 25 years...horizontal Danny Murphy.
Thanks again guys.
Scott

Thank you, Rob. Also, glad to reacquire another card for the collection:

Was great to meet you. Enjoyed speaking with you and glad we could help you get back into the hobby. Good luck and enjoy the card

Finally got goal 1 of my pickup goal for the year...Big Train!

Great card. Had my eye on that one as well. Congrats

A HOF Addition...
 

...with a plate scratch (maybe?)

Added another type
 

Received this T209-1 in the mail today. He's the only catcher in the set.

I think :rolleyes: at some point American Caramel said: "Man, do those Boston Nationals stink *, but we got to give them a few cards."
