Awesome Cobb, AJ. As the owner of the 3 on the bottom, though, I could tell you your 1.5 looks superb even without the comparison. ;)

Great Cobby Sam! Love that centering

Hi Ken,

Super nice Cubbie pick ups man. Congrats on those two.

Thanks,

AndyH

Happy to win this tough Cuban issue of the great Valentin Dreke. The photo quality is as good as it gets:

Great stuff guys. Nice T205 batch there. The Cobbs and Ruth are really nice!

:eek::eek: ---- some UNREAL pick ups we have going in March !!!!!!


These are from a NEW friend and great trader, Jeff R. :):)

Now most T206 collectors don't get to excited about Dan McGann, but this combo made my day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great, Scott :rolleyes:

Worthy? Why yes, yes they are. Sweet.

"Right bottom corner tear"? Idk, but that is one sweet card. Damn

Don't post much, but thought this was worthy.[/QUOTE]

Great Cobbs. I can't get over how these two cards have nearly IDENTICAL wear on the corners. It's almost like they have traveled the earth together, one atop the other, for 110 years.

It amazes me how a card could get that much corner wear and have no creases. Seriously how is it even possible.:confused:

Cards in a stack, wrapped with a rubber band, get handled in stack form for 100 or so years. The corners get rubbed off, but the faces stay intact.

Beautiful Cobbs, by the way!

Sliding around in a cigar (or other) box, drawer, etc might also yield corners like those.

T206
 

Two new additions to the collection.

A month of firsts
 

Very thankful that Louieman was willing to part with this George C. Miller Gehringer. Also picked up my first T205 and Tattoo Orbit this month.

Great pickups Sam. That T205 Cobb has always been one of my favorites.

Nice O'Hara Ed. I can't tell from the scan but is it possible that it's an ink
blob from the printing. I've seen them on cards before.

Here's a Bell and chase with a few in the same place.
Attachment 266712

Thanks, Pat. It is a drop of ink, probably from a fountain pen. Period, but not original to the card. :D

What's up, Chuck?
 

Here's my big March pickup - the house, not the lady friend.

Nice pickup on the house, KMayUSA6060...

My latest is rather humble by comparison...my first DeLong of one of my favorite pre-war players...

Special thanks to Brian Van Horn for a smooth transaction and for working with me on this purchase...your patience is greatly appreciated...

Happy to add this one. The crease isn't too bothersome for me, and kept the price down.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2e535af4af.jpg

Congratulations, Kyle to you and your future wife.

Matt,

Thank you. It was my pleasure.

Took a risk:

Whoa! Quite the find!! Nice rookies w/ tough backs regardless of whether or not the "autos" are legit.

Thank you, Derek.

Love that Sisler. I live near Akron, OH, which is where Sisler is from. My Grandpa played high school ball in Akron, and minor league ball in Findlay, OH. Before he passed a couple years ago, he talked about knowing Sisler. I wish I had picked my Grandpa's brain a bit more and listened to his stories more carefully. I forget in which capacity he knew George, whether it be an encounter on the ball diamond, or somewhere around Akron through work. Nonetheless, awesome card.

Thanks for the congrats, Brian!

Upgraded my SGC 10 E93 Joss.

Thank you, Kyle.

Happy with this smudged up pickup
 

(grey is the new orange complements of canon btw).

Diamond Cut Peaches
 

Perhaps my best eBay pickup ever!

Thrilled to add this George Peaches Graham E90-1 to my catcher collection.

Patrick

Very nice Patrick. I like the printer's marks on it too.

and a Matty Polar Bear T205 for my set...

That's a beauty!! As a Matty collector I still don't have a T205 I'm thrilled with. Nice pick up

Nice cards, guys. I really like the Peaches, Patrick.

Thanks guys!
 

Happy to knock one of the highest priced catchers off my list...still waiting to pick up an Irv Lewis T207 at some point. Ironically, both were Boston National players, although Irv never actually played in a major league game.


Patrick

That's a great looking T205 Matty. Awesome pickup!

Two more Evers Chicago Shirt for my growing back run -- beaters for sure and hopefully just placeholders, but great to acquire two of the more difficult front/back combos. Thanks Luke!!

Still need many more, so please email or PM me if you have any you want to sell/trade.

Congrats on the T205 Matty
 

Congrats Leon on that nice looking Matty T205!

Patrick

This beauty came yesterday as a gift. He isn't pretty, but he's all mine and where else can you find a a Matty with an Old Mill back AND a Sweet Cap Front!

:D

Kevin, I hope that is real, but I don't think so.

kevin.....
 

I have seen similar cards like yours.....please don't take offense, but I believe your card is not "correct":)

cardboard looks not authentic even at first glance.....unfortunately ....:o


send it to me if you want me to check it out.....glad it was free:)

All Good - The person who sent it to me is a fantastic guy with whom I have bought a bunch of stuff from in the past couple of months. Assuming it is no good, it was without malice. I am no worse for wear. I just got a kick out of the over print.

I was all excited about being able to post on the main page :)

Welcome to the Main Page Kevin!!

My first Lefty...

Was glad to fill a few holes in my Providence set thanks to a few board members.

Very interesting card of Frank Frisch from 1931 from Japan. About the size of a T-206.

E-135 blank back
 

Not sure but from what I understand these are not too common.
