Nice Dihigo Joe!! I was 4th in line on bidding on that beauty, I didn't go any higher cause I believed there to be a small amount of paper loss on the upper left hand corner that would have affected the grade. Now with the card in hand, is that paper loss or a printing defect in the yellow border??
Just curious, anyways, great pick up on a tough card!!

Steve

I was the immediate underbidder on that Dihigo. Very nice card. I did pick up both of the Montiel Ruth's from that seller.

Upper left corner
 

Hello Steve,

I think I'm good on the corner. Looked at it through a magnifying glass and I don't see any paper loss damage or even any changes in the texture of the paper. But I don't have a lot of experience, there may have a flaw that shows up under high magnification that I cannot see.

No matter what grade I get I will be happy with the card. It displays better than any Montiel that I have in my collection. I've only seen a couple of them for sale on eBay in the last year. They were offered on high buy-it-now prices that were out of my reach.

Best regards,

Joe

Ruths
 

Hi Gary,

Great pick up on the Ruths. I bid on the one with the yellow border, but obviously my bid wasn't high enough.

Best regards,

Joe

Sounds good Joe, congrats again!!

Here's a few that showed up today...

Technically I've had these for sometime now but just got back from SGC today.

Happy to have this one..
 

T210 - 8

I still love flea markets and I love antique shops. I also picked up a picture of Joe Louis, but it is too big for my scanner (reproduction I'm afraid):

Complicated Trade
 

First off, thanks to Adam (Gradedcardman) and Steve (Captainhask) for helping me pull this off. I saw that Steve had a complete set of SL on ebay and noticed the Revelle had a partial double name. I contacted him about a sale of that card solely if the lot didn't sell. At the close, he sent me a message saying that he really didn't want to break up the set. I asked if I could "upgrade" his Revelle, if he'd trade me the double name. He agreed, so I needed to find one. I thought I bought one from Heroes of Sport, but it wasn't in their inventory. After a BST plea, I saw that Adam had a card. I was able to buy it and have sent to Steve who then sent me this beauty.

Again, thanks guys!
