By the way, the "rookie head-cases" (like me) would probably consider his 1902 W600 Sporting Life Cabinet as Plank's rookie, but I wouldn't shed a tear if I had the 1903 E107 instead!!

Payment sent! Thanks for the card. I really appreciate the free shipping too.

By the way #2, the past tense of "to bid" is "bid", not "bidded". I'm not a grammar nazi, but that one just kills me!

Congrats Lee!! Glad it went to a fellow Net54 member!!

Here are a few others that have come in. Set is building up real quick

Great card. The Raja is one of my all-time favorite players. Unfortunately he gets overshadowed by Jackie Robinson in a lot of discussions which is sad because Hornsby was a much better player.

My 23rd M101-6 - thanks Dave

Chris

Good job

I think I just set a record for shortest time listed on ebay. I saw this pop up and could not smash the BIN button fast enough. I just love when this card has big, beefy borders...

Belltown Vintage
 

Was doing some late night browsing on Scott's site and made these two my first Belltown purchases. Not in hand yet, but after several solid transactions with Mr. Forrest, I know they'll be here quick and safe. Excited mostly for the Meikle (and it's great colors) after having just missed out on one on eBay a couple months back.

Matt...killer card! Congrats!

Nice 205's, King...your collection is coming along nicely.

Ian...beautiful pickups as always. And that Scott guy....he's alright I guess ;)

You're a machine! :eek::D

Just love the detail on the Jennings...

Here are my latest T206 pickups. All were acquired from the BST.

Moving along

Crap scan but this guy has always fascinated me after reading his story on wikipedia.

Rossman was an interesting. Just read the wikipedia page.

The start of my 1934 Goudey picked up though BST.

I'm really liking these N172's despite this one being a Yankee lol

Beautifull Manush

Gotta respect someone with the name Cannonball

Nice Heinie! But it's hard to respect a guy named Heinie...

More like a Giant really, but a New Yorker nonetheless.....;)

I stand corrected!

Nice card for your first one trust me fun set to do as you can see from my signature I myself am also working on the set. Good luck

Not a card, but it is a pick up in January.

Yankee Doodle
 

No correction needed. Though he played for the Giants, Titcomb was a true Yankee, born in Maine, raised in Haverhill, MA, and died in NH.

Lol, yes a true "Yankee" in that sense ;)

1887 OJ Ed Andrews
 

Happy to add this one

Got my 25th card for my 34 Goudey Set in the mail today. Set is moving right along.

Jesse,

Nice pickup. You have been on quite a tear on those 34 Goudeys. Really enjoying your cards. Thanks for sharing.

Marty

Yea I have Marty. I am trying to complete the set fast well faster than I originally wanted to. Plus some of the deals I have recently been getting is just to good to pass on. I am sure there will be others to come in the near future. Now only if I can score some more 38 goudey's haha

Love OJ portraits - thanks Matt

Great 34 Goudey. I have 4 on the way and can't wait to officially add them.

Georgie Boy!

Sweet Babe Pete, congrats. Eastern Exhibits?

From fleaBay for the WaJo collection:

That's a great pickup!

yup...eastern exhibit...great tough Wajo Val!

Dave & Pete - Thanks for the kind words!
Val

Great card Val!

I assume your done I cant think of any other Johnson at auction that you would want or need. ;)

Hey John,
I can't agree with your comment right at this moment, but hopefully, I'll be in a position to agree with it come Super Bowl Sunday morning, assuming that a certain collector with deeper pockets than me doesn't decide he can't live without the WaJo card you know I covet! :D
Best,
Val

I'll go over to his house Val and tie him up in the basement not only will help you out but I'm sure his wife could use the time off. :D

John,
Many thanks in advance. Just be sure to tie him up in such a way that he can't use his keyboard, especially if his computer is in his basement! ;)
Val

Nice pickup Val.Its good to see the Wajo collection growing!

Can't wait to see your set come together as well. I am focusing right now on trying to obtain a nice Greenberg for my set and a few of the higher number ones. But hey that doesn't mean I won't be trying to pick up others. There is a nice 5 chuck Klein on the site here for sale I'd pick it up but it's sgc. Anyway can't wait to see what you have coming in.

The color really makes this. Also: rookie card.

Very nice, Greg.

For a couple of my buddies who I know never venture over to the Post War thread (which has been live lately, swing on by!). Others please forgive the Post War post in these here parts; no offense intended.

I was after one of these SO, SO BADLY; all I ever dreamed of was decent centering OR registration/focus. Never thought I'd get both in one card.

Virtually my favorite CJ, came out of nowhere, thanks to Tom P.

Greg,

Looks way better than a 3 from here!

Nice pick up Matt! The Paige is a nice addition to your collection. I took a look at your cards, and you have some beauties!

From Goodwin last night.

Nice score on the Abbott...and one of my favorite backs to boot!!

Me too Mike:D

MattyC, yes, looks like a 5 but a couple of wrinkles under the old the magnifier. So, for me, perfect card--looks fantastic, great centering, and price down due to wrinkles you can't see....

Hey Wonka John, whether it's because you carried out your "plan" (most likely! :D) or it's because I outbid you know who for the first time ever for a rare/scarce WaJo card (not likely!), I am PUMPED at having won the 1921 Herpolsheimer WaJo in last night's LOTG Auction!!! I'll show this card in the LOTG pick-up thread. Thanks for the encouragement you gave me to go for it!

BTW, I love the fabulously strong images on all of the OJs that you have picked up lately. I have 70+ OJs of Washington players, and I don't think any one of mine has an image as strong as any of yours!
Best,
Val
