Love the Feller Bill.

"Rapid Robert" was one of the few professional sports exports that we've had from my home state.

Maranville rookie card
 

This is the scarce Maranville rookie card from the 1912 Boston Daily American postcard series. There are only five known player postcards in the set. Thanks to fellow board member Dan Studebaker for this scarce postcard type.

Cheers, Mike

4 down, 2 to go on the Wagners in the E94 set. Thanks Spencer for making the deal.

E101 Bill Bergen
 

Years ago I sold off a nice E92 Bergen and regretted it, so this E101 Bergen will fit nicely in my collection.

Great Maranville Rookie, Michael, incredibly scarce!

Special card Mike!

Nice pickup, Mike.

GREAT card Mike!

Small 3" x 5" Gabby Street photo
 

It's been a really good month for my collection. I picked up a small 3" x 5" Gabby Street photo from 1924 when he was with the Muskogee Atletics.

Here's a scan of the photo matted.

Robert - Nice OB ! I meant to bid on it, but forgot to get around to it... Glad you picked it up for your team set !

JJ

Picked up this sweet card from Ed Woelfle on the BST!

Nice Keeler Jeff! That's my favorite card of his!

Got it back from SGC
 

Thought I would post the slabbed card from SGC in case anyone was wondering. Just came in the mail this morning before I left for work.

Awesome. Congrats.

Robert,

Nice pickup! I was watching that one and wondered if you were bidding on it or the other Houston T210 which ended at the same time. Nice bright orange borders!

Congrats on the Blank back Cobb. I bet your inbox will be flooded
with offers on that one.

Thanks Mike,

I'm super excited to have it back in my hands. It's a long trip from Parsippany to LA!

A nice dent
 

Had a little luck at the casino recently, and decided not to give it all back to them :D Thanks for this nice group Cy !! (scanner sucks)

Here's the rest, with Orange Abstein........

Thanks to Dan and a few others for about 20+ HOFers and future HOFers in recent packages this week. Here are three I was excited about.

Nice Dandridge, Jimi. Pretty good shape for the issue even with the centering.

Trading and eBaying
 

Picked these up thru trading and eBaying over the past two months:

Nice silk Jeff!

My most recent humble pre-war pick-up...
 

This is #14 in my quest for a complete set of Diamond Stars...so far all are PSA 6/SGC 80s...

Just got these in!

That Chance is a beaut!
 

@lharri3600 - That Chance is beautiful... don't see a thing wrong with it!

Thanks erik:d

eye appeal
 

Very, very nice eye appeal on all of them, Larry. You've obviously got more than a bit of the connoiseur in you!

Jeff, you're going to have drooling all over the keyboard on that Cobb, and Jimi, nice W573--you don't see too many of those!

Best wishes in your collecting!

Larry

Picked up this beauty from forum member Brad Green. Thanks Brad, what a great card!

nice one jb

Larry really nice Chance... Ralph

March Pickup
 

Picked these up yesterday (3) M101-5s and met up w/fellow collector and N54er Greg. Great conversation, Thanks again Greg!!

My first Obak, Monte Pfyl. After seeing so many pictured here on this forum, I decided to get one and see what they were about. I think I picked a nice looking Obak and a player with a curious history. Monte Pfyl had just 1 sip from his cup of coffee as a Major Leaguer. He made his 1 and only plate appearance on July 30th, 1907 with the NY Giants and got a sac bunt. That was all his Major League playing time. I can imagine Old John McGraw yelling down to the other end of the bench, "Hey kid, go get your bat." Then telling him to lay one down.

By the way, these Obaks are pretty neat cards.

Thanks to Erick for a great transaction!

Glad I could help you out, Rob.

'33 Gehrig
 

I love looking at all of your vintage cards guys and enjoy reading about rare cards I've never seen before. I may not be on your level, but I did just pick up a '33 Goudey Gehrig #92 SGC 60 (5). Nice centering.

Lord E95
 

Big thanks to JohnnyHarmonica for the smooth transaction!

Demmitt St Louis from the Chicago Show Last Weekend
 

This was the raw Demmitt (St. Louis) from the Chicago Sun Times show last weekend. Took it straight over to SGC. Nice for the grade, no creases, clean - I'm very happy with it! O'Hara left to go to be "Complete minus Big 4" (instead of "Big 5")

New pickups. I've finally realized that I may never get Griffith's real RC, so his T206 will have to do for now.

Also, finally found a Doby Leaf!

Dan

Thank You, Travis and Thank You, Rick:

Pretty fairly priced cards; two Southern Leaguers and another double name miscut.

Slowly but surely...#76:

welcome
 

Welcome to the board, Pete. Great looking Gehrig too. You just can't go wrong with that card. Very classic. Thanks for joining in the reindeer games too. As for being on anyone's level, to me, we are all "collectors".

It's nice to own a Hugh Duffy other than my t206.
