I haven't posted my monthly pickups in awhile, but after looking at everyone's cardboard I was inspired to scan and post. Incredible cards everyone, thanks for sharing.

It took some trades and cash to get this Cobb, but it was worth it.

A very difficult T200 to find in any condition. Number six in this 16 card set, possibly my favorite set of all-time.

I had some rare good fortune at an estate sale/auction this week. The Suitcase Seeds card is strangely a blank back on thicker cardboard, so I would welcome some input.

Thanks Joe. The exhibits are great in that I can afford (barely) a higher grade Cobb. A T206, E98 or other desireable Cobb's in the same grade, I would guess, would cost 3-4 times as much as I spent. As much as I love the artwork of a t206 it is pretty cool having an actual photo print of the great Cobb.

Chief Meyers (Catching) Diamond Cut "Twin Bill" T206
 
1 Attachment(s)
Picked up this Chief Myers (Catching T206) that has a severe diamond cut and registration issues that create a "double vision" and a "twin bill."

I wasn't sure if I would ever see this card since there was a delay in shipping, and once it was shipped, it went from Alabama to Texas before heading here to Maine.

Nice card AJ. My favorite Goudey Ruth by far. I bought mine 3 years ago at the National. Remember that purchase. At the time, it was the most I had paid for a card. Still one of my favorites.

Thanks Eric! Decided I'd better buy some low grade examples before I got priced out as they seem to be on the ups right now. Love the Goudey set.

Here's another one that showed up in the mail today. As a CJ collector I'm partial to the deep red background and love how it matches Cy's "B A" on his shirt. This is a tremendous no crease grade 3 that I jumped at when it posted on ebay last week.

Luke 05-23-2016 10:24 PM

Wow Barry, nice! You should bring a few 1914s to the show to show them off and so I can see them. I've still never owned one from either year.

Many thanks to Henry Moses for parting with this N333 Newsboy (finally :) ). This example enjoys a strong photo which makes for easy reading of the small nameplate. Introducing John "Jack" Flood, Detroit Journal right fielder.


Still looking for many of his teammates & opponents . . .

VintageJay 05-24-2016 06:40 PM

Super Newsboy!

I have always wanted the Collins-Boston Globe.

Thanks for the compliment and I too like the Collins (a welcome pick-up last year from Bruce Babcock).

Joe, great pickups over the year and how did you get Moses to part with it? :)

To keep the 19th century black and white theme going, I'll add this California League card.

Just got this Baker. I've owned a few copies over the years, but always lower grade and I never kept any for long. Got this one from a board member, thanks again!

I second that, and the ones that are available quite often are used-looking (which I applaud) like the ones Pete has shown.

A.J., that's my favorite Cy Young card (and as a T206 guy it hurts to admit this). Congratulations.

Thanks Sean, I'm with you. I think by far that's the best Cy Young card ever made. That rich red background is awesome.

Picked this up from another board member last week...Steve got to me A-Ok! I think these Exhibits are the most underrated cards on the market right now.

mechanicalman 05-25-2016 08:49 PM

AJ, you're on a DiMaggio-esque streak of awesome pick-ups. Totally agree on Exhibits by the way.
