One for each collection
 

Both fresh from SGC, the McGlynn I got from dog*dirt in a trade.

Interesting Crawford image

Very nice Crawford, I believe that one is quite rare, no?

cool Crawford!

Phil

Good question. On SGC reports, there are 2 listed as graded. Apart from that, dont know.

Pittsburg Base Ball Club 1903
 

Supplement from the Pittsburg Sunday Press. Picked this up somewhat recently, but just got around to taking it out of the frame (would guess from the 80s?) today. It was taped to the matte around the edges unfortunately.

Still a very cool piece.

Congrats

Though not baseball I thought this flip book might be of interest here since it was issued by Fleer in the 19th century:

Didn't know Fleer was around then

'52 Topps Sain (Page Back)

Decided to keep this one...
 

Was going to sell it, but don't have a McGlynn (or a Sovereign) in my set

These are my first two T206 pick-ups in a year. Last year while visiting family in Pennsylvania, I wandered in to a smalll card shop and found a Brooklyn Dahlen. Last week I returned after a year and found these two in the same shop. They were surrounded by shinny modern cards. He had no other cards pre-1989. It was odd seeing them surrounded by Buster Posey and Mike Trout so I rescued them. I picked up the pair for $210 which in my limited knowledge of this set seemed very reasonable.

Big thanks to Pete U. and BST.
I don't collect Obak's, but have always wanted a "Gilliam Squires" stamp.
Also enjoy the 1911's "multi-moldy-color" backgrounds.

Edit to say: I know the PCL played a long schedule, but some of the AB numbers these guys have are amazing !!!

Whew....well that's 3 of the 4 Indians SGC has graded

Anyone know where Guy Morton is? :D

I think you did fine - that's one of the nicest Beckley cards I've seen. Like Tenney, seems to be tough to find that one with great color and registration. Also, that blue-background Evers is kind of tough.

1933 Butter Cream Lefty Grove with Sept 1 back....
 

I have been looking for a 1933 Butter Cream Lefty Grove card with a Sept 1 back for the past 15 years. I missed out on two in the last 8 or 9 years, but was able to grab one late last week. I was so excited to cross this Grove card off my list!

Brad,

That's super cool to hear you finally got this one. Nice card. I'm very happy for you.

Here are a couple more of my pickups:

Thanks again Ken for the Reulbach and Thanks again to Scott for the Batter Up. I now have the Heving in three colors: Purple, Black and now Blue.

Thanks,

AndyH

Just picked up another Carl Horner to go along with the Bob Ewing I already had. An original Yankee:

That's great Scott, cool card. The funny thing is when I upgraded my Obaks, the first thing I did was get rid of all the cards which were stamped Gilliam Squires on the back :)

..... Just another ....... just because ....... :rolleyes:

Almost to 300...
 

I was hoping I'd get a card like this to mark #300, but I'm very happy with this as card #294

August has been a good month for me, I just got these two in today.

Thanks again Erick for the Dougherty, as always it was a pleasure dealing with you.

Thanks,

AndyH


edited to add: Erick, I need a better scanner after seeing your Matty!

Great pickups Erick and Andy!

Thanks a lot Chris. I've been wanting a Marquard Hands at Thighs for a long time.

Best,

AndyH

Guys............Not exactly 'August' pickups. I picked them up 'raw' in January and had them graded earlier this month at the National........Matt

I'd say you did well for yourself then. Awesome cards Matt. :eek:

What is the significance of this card? Please pardon my ignorance just curoius what makes this appealing besides the mangle job.

Just received this in the mail today

Nice cards Matt, especially that Zeenut.

Phil - Nice O'Hara!

First blue background M116. Love the red/blue/green color combo.

Picked up a handful of Series 8 cards on and off ebay in the past week but this was one which had eluded me from the New Orleans Pelicans subset I've been collecting. Glad to get it.
