C46 Jack Hardy (Montreal)
 

Another C46 catcher arrived today, Jack Hardy.

Need just Fred Mitchell to complete the 12 card catcher run in the C46 set.

Beautiful Imperial!!

Slightly post-war but thought it fit here.

1946-47 RPPC of the Almendares Team that won the Cuban Championship. I haven't been able to track down another one of these in past auctions. I did see a premium with a colorized image, but not a postcard.

It features Negro League legends Buck O'Neil and Ducky Davenport. Tough to find O'Neil career pieces and this is from what I think was his only season in Cuba.

Very cool, never seen a postcard like that before either.

I'll second that!! Very cool postcard!! Great pick-up!

Thanks Bruce!

First Hall of Famer in a 5!

Back scan!

Nice card Wazz congrat!

Thanks for the kind words on the Almendares card guys.

I'm really jealous!!! :o Great card!
Congrats!

Picked up a couple of T213-2 Coupons on ebay tonight. I hope I don't get started on this set again! :(

this is awesome!

one of my best months...
 

I picked up quite a few tough HOF rookie cards over the past month+, thanks mostly to Phil G. selling a large portion of his collection. Thanks again!

Here are a few...

Nice Pete, are those creases on the right side of the new one (013)?

A banner day
 

It's been a long while since I've added 9 cards to my set in one day... thanks to Andrew for the Spade and Robert for the other eight.

Now I have all of the "A's" (alphabetical, not Philadelphia) and inching closer to the 400 mark.

Coupon grab
 

Jon - Great "T206 Coupon" snare off ebay! You stole that one for the price!
Congrats, Jeremy

Morris
 

Jason - I never get tired of looking at that pose. Superb card !

A couple of great additions to your collection there, Ian!

I've been reading quite a bit about Jimmie Foxx. I've always felt he has been a tad underrated as far as the game's all-time great power hitters go. I'd put him in the same category with Ralph Kiner in that regard.

At some point this fall, I'll be looking to add a '34 Goudey Foxx to my collection. Both the '33 and '34 Goudey sets are really growing on me. I was looking at Rob Miller's '33 set, and it's incredible. I see why they're both so popular with collectors.

What I'd really love to have is the '34 Goudey Lou Gehrig # 37. I took one look at John's (Wonkaticket) card, and fell in love with it. Mine would be a lower graded one, obviously, but still have great eye appeal.

I hope so. Watched and drooled over it for 7 days. It was under $50 with 10 minutes to go. Just wanted a nice back example and can overlook the milk vomit...

nice pickups guys...agreed...nice type 1 scoops. Chris...those are indeed creases!

Just got this 3 back miscut... Happy to add this one to my T206 Freak Show :)

Nice Jamie.

Interesting Pete, I didn't recall seeing them on the Goodwin scans.

I've been switching back and forth between pre-war and post-war HOF rookies. Here is my latest pre-war pick-up:

Chris...that's disconcerting!

I'll post it here too.
 

I just got it back from SGC (I posted it raw earlier this month in the thread).

Thanks to David R for helping check this one off the want list.

Either from a T206 test sheet or Lash Bitter's test sheet.

I don't really care for most of the printing errors but this one is really cool, Chris! Congrats on the pick-up!

Nice pickups Ian

Doerr from a board member....

Chris - Nice Maddox!

Congrats Brad!! I think you showed me that one after right I ended up with your Jackie.

Thanks Bill- I agree, Foxx was a beast. One of my favorite stats was in one of B James earlier abstracts, best player of each decade. Look at Foxx's '30.. Wow!

Yep Ian that is one. Hope you are enjoy the Robinson!! And also hope you are doing well!

My first T209.

Stunning card!

Picked this up a while ago, but recently go it slabbed.

A little more progress on the E92 Nadja set thanks to a board member and Ebay.

DJ

Thanks Ted Z! Great dealing with you.

Michael-Very nice Drum.

:eek: Mike!

wow beautifull Drum

Both Mike and Chris... niiiiiiiiiice!

first pickup in probably over a month... Been too damn busy with work lately...:D

Mike, good to see that you got another Drum. :)

Thanks Sean!

I bought this raw from bbcard1 about a year ago. Had a bunch of SGC stuff heading to Jersey, so, threw him in just to get slabbed. Fully expected an A. I was very surprised and don't expect to ever get rid of it.
