Ditto Pete, that is a beautiful GQ!

One of my favorite cards of him...and quite tough too. In fact, I really enjoy all of the Boston American T207 cards. Cheers, Blair |

Two additions to a Detroit Mt. Rushmore of rookies. (I realize one is woefully out of place on this thread. Sorry.)

Signed Grove Goudey
Am super thrilled about adding this gorgeous signed card to my collection. I don't normally go after the signed Goudeys, but I have a soft spot in my heart for Lefty Grove, who has always been one of my favs. I've been looking out for a clean signature on the Goudey for years.

This just arrived today - been wanting to find one for years, but budget, other interests, and timing always seemed to get in the way
Pretty solid for the grade, which 2.5 is on point Attachment 255001 |

Nothing spectacular here but my first Old Judge.

I agree that Old Judge is amazing.
|
Well thanks guys! :) What did draw me to this card was the same clarity I pursue on action shot photographs. And as you can probably guess the grade is due to back damage.

Michael--Nice card. BTW, that is also Welch's scarcest pose.

As previously stated by other members, sensational pickup. Merry Christmas! |

Couldn't resist grabbing this T207 off of eBay at a decent price. Now have 3 Tom Needham T207s...guess I'm a bit of a hoarder these days.

Exhibits get no love, but I picked up this one for not a lot of money.
|
These W517's are really cool. Had to pick up Ruth's counterpart. Hard to imagine but Gehrig had 184 RBI's in 1931. Ridiculous.
Thanks Jim! http://www.collectorfocus.com/images...517-lou-gehrig |

I've gotten really into nice raw T206 Hall of Famers for some reason
|
Great pickups, Cole. Those T206s have strong eye appeal.
This Crandall I have been hunting since the 24th of August, and it finally turned up at a price I could afford. Jumbo borders and oversized cards are always up my alley :) The Tenney is another card I have been looking for, but could never find. Mr. Scott G offered me this one at a price I couldn't say no to. Thank you Mr. G! Merry Christmas everyone! NJ http://www.collectorfocus.com/images...6-doc-crandall http://www.collectorfocus.com/images...06-fred-tenney |

Nice cards - the Tenney is the "broken Y" version to boot.

Got 2 cards for Christmas. The Howell is from my uncle and the Brain from my dad. Very blessed to have family that respects my hobby interests.

December has been a banner month. First Dave Davenport and now Mal Eason!
Been looking for those two for about 25 years. Now what to do with the 15 other teams. Just love these mini W601's |

Seems 2016 is ending in a flurry or Red Borders for me. This is a big one for finishing off my Series 5 set. Finally landed it! Thanks Matt for the great transaction.

Kyle, Jason, thank you for the comments. It was a great 2016 for my collection and I hope that was the case for you gentlemen as well. Jason, I like the Mayo. B/W cards are kind of my thing and I could see me jumping on that set if/when the Red Borders slow for me. Great pickups everyone!
|
Got my last buys in the mail today! Here's a group shot of all my Dec pick ups

Dear god. That was some December.
Very cool. |
I'm sure Jan will be alot slower lol but I'm pretty pleased with what I got so far
|
Goodness C-Mack! Did you have naked pictures of Mrs. Clause or something, and Santa wanted to drop these off a little after Christmas on a special trip? Well done! Great December, and phenomenal way to finish off 2016!
