David, that green Cobb "1" is a beauty!

Picked this up from a board member Attachment 191536

What kind of cards are those ??? Never seen those before really cool looking !!!

Picked them up from Heritage. Never saw them before. It's a full foldout. Was surprised it went so cheap with 2 HOFers especially Lajoie, from 1905!! Lot 83476...1905 Hackett's Fold-Out Photoengravings of Nap Lajoie, Jack Chesbro & Others....

My first Cobb, yet my least favorite pose... ;)

Attachment 191566

Very cool card Erick!

Pardon the obvious "Non-Sports" nature of the cards (and the overt Racism). With all that out of the way, I thought the baseball card enthusiast would appreciate this Uncataloged & rare E-card series as it is obviously closely related to the E125 American Caramel series of Baseball Players. The series was apparently looking to capitalize on the popularity of Teddy Roosevelt and his African hunting expeditions...

Go Nats!

In the Month of May, I got Moe, Moe, Moe.
Nice transaction with a board member. :)

Nice card.

New Additions
 

Love the color variance

WOWSA! :eek:

Wait. What? Wait. What?

Wait.

Holy shit.

I got this one back from the grader a long time ago and somehow never got around to posting it in the '' Pick-Ups''....there are several fans of this set so I'm posting it for them , to know to add to their list of cards to watch for , since this one is not in all the checklists . The Burke 4 x 6 photo is in the scan because I just bought it because I thought it was the one used to make the card ( nerds often collect stuff like that...hey , I'm not alone here ). Wrong uniform and location though. Neat pose ; I've always thought of those Burkes as little works of photo-art.

Wow Adam, nice trio!

Adam....
 

:eek::eek:

IM BLIND!:)

Tom - Please! How about a little respect?

It's Holy Donkey Shit!

:D

It appears that I am collecting extra dark T206. It is nice to dig something that has no premium attached to it.

Adam...congrats on the color variances! Those are pretty sweet if I might say so myself :eek:

Congrats on your nice pickup, which is one of my favorite WaJo cards. Congrats also on receiving a numerical grade from SGC, as I have assumed that a Baseball Bats card that doesn't have its orange (or white) border would receive an "A" grade.
Val

Just started in vintage and these are my first pick ups of many I am sure. Not sure what I am keeping and moving at this point.

n28, E90-1, and a Turkey Red in your first pick-ups, not a bad way to start! Congrats and welcome to vintage collecting, you'll enjoy this far more than modern!

Absolutely. And that Glasscock is a thing of beauty.

That sounded dirty but I didn't man it that way.

I wonder why the Auth designation. Snipped perhaps?

See what I did there?

Tom C

Thanks guys. Im guessing the A was for it being trimmed. Just an amazing card that presents really well to me. Wanted a Young that didnt look like it had been crumpled into a ball, but I felt this was a good price and a decent starting point.

For HOF set:

:D

Excellent contrast on the Old Judge O'Day, bxb. I don't have an Old Judge yet but when I finally get one I want it to look like that.

+1

Gulp!

Another T207 catcher
 

Picked up this Bresnahan T207 that arrived today. Only a few T207 catchers left on my want list now.


Patrick

Nice
 

Think that will do just fine for now!

Went with a very common back, mid grade as a placeholder till I find a rare back I like for a price I can take:

Very comfortable with the price on this.

Adam....
 

I'm still scrap silly from those Blank Backs:eek: they are AWESOME:eek:

T207 William Kelly (Cycle Back)
 

Very excited to finally pickup this William Kelly T207 with a Cycle Cigarettes back from the recent Goldin Auctions. My first Cycle back.

These good fellows came today, courtesy of the last Sirius auction...

...and they were promptly liberated from captivity.

Don't they look happier?

Yes, yes they do. Blazers.

CJ 15s in high-grades now very hot--for some reason, and if PSA. Perhaps the 14s got too expensive to collect so some people now switching to 15s. Or they got sick from inhaling caramel flames. Or the PSA 7s and 8s are amazingly vivid (there are very few 9s).

Signed T201 & T202
 

Nice to have this pair back in the fold. Traded them about half a dozen years ago, and they found their way back to me via eBay. Welcome home, fellas!

:D

Number 15 in my very slooooowwwww quest to complete the e96 set.

1 more to go

Nice Plank, DJ!

Thanks Luke, been looking for one with decent eye appeal and semi affordable for quite awhile.

DJ

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the very elusive Ray Keating in immaculate condition. Got lucky with timing checking eBay this morning getting out of bed.

Wow that is a stunning CJ!

Luke, DJ, AJ - awesome pickups guys.

Luke...great looking marquard! It can be tough to build a slow moving set sometimes, but when it's all said and done, you'll be very happy you stayed on course. Keep chugging along [emoji41]

You're killing me. Kill. Ing. Me.

Was underbidder on both.

Unsuccessful sniping 101.

Here are three of the five raw Old Judges I bought this month -- the other two are still on their way in the mail. Of the five, Zimmer is the only one I paid more than $100 for.

Nice card. Think it should be a 1 but I guess it has too much of the borders missing. Unaltered and clean back.

Very happy with the mail man today, not so happy with my scanner. I couldn't wait to use the scanner at work on Monday, though. My first Carolina Brights, my first Piedmont factory 42, one of the cleanest Polar Bear I have seen, and a Obak I been wanting for a very long time.
