It was a shame to break up the group, but thanks to Doug for sending this one my way.

:eek:

Yeah; always thought this card looked quite a bit different than his T206 portrait.

That Walsh is the bees knees...your lucky I didnt see it before you scored! :D

A couple of upgrades for my Cracker Jack set......

Thanks Ben!

Beauties Barry.

Haven't acquired anything Pre-War in a while. Here's a few recent pickups:

T206 Downey, T206 Smith, T212-2 Lewis, T213-2 Wagner, T213-2 Warhop, T213-2 Smith

I created a post a while ago about what Babe Ruth's are affordable. Thanks to all who provided their input. After much consideration, I decided to get the 1928 Shonen Kulubu Postcard since it is so unique and I like the image on it.

There's no denying the coolness factor of that image. Nice pickup!

Those '14 CJ's are also lookin' good, Barry.

A couple more

Nice Ruths guys

Thank You, Dan:

......Found the photo used to make The 1934 Wheaties ( Gold Medal Foods ) Cleveland Indians sub -set......on E-Bay for ten dollars....sometimes ya just gets lucky....

T207 McGraw
 

One-of-a-kind C.1910 Hughie Jennings RPPC. The photo quality of this postcard is incredible!

very cool Jeff, I like the ads in the background.

That PC is fantastic, Jeff!

Is hughie coaching from deep right field?

Holy cow, Jeff, that's unreal. You can see blades of grass in the foreground. His hands look 3D!

Great pickup.

-Al

Graig Kreindler would have a field day with this one! Those fans in the back-ground and the signs are Graigs specialty!

Hit 1/3 of the set with this card.

My first two T206's. I'm a few steps into a long walk. ;) Have had the Cobb for a while, but just got the Walsh.

Congrats Bill! Great first two steps!

Best,

Andy

Thanks Andy, the fever is setting in!

BTW - we need to get the Michigan group together again, but that's for another post. Were you at the B&H Auction last weekend?

another Joe D this month

Tiny paper loss on back and SGC decimated the grade. Oh well, I'm always happy to buy horizontals with nice fronts, especially when they can be purchased dirt cheap :-)

Congrats Jason !

Wow...this deserves an "Ee-Yah"

Ricky Y

Great PC. Nice pickup.

I see Florsheim Shoes and then a train ad. Most likely Union Pacific? Says something about the California Sierras. Really neat photo. Don't see these every day.

+2!! Jason, you have come a long way in a short period of time - it seems like only yesterday that you were getting started with the Series 2 subset! If I were a set collector, I'd be going after the T210 "Monster" myself (as opposed to the over-rated T206 "Monster" :D)
Best,
Val

T210 Set
 

Val - If the T206 set is The Monster, then the T210 set is The Behemoth. No comparison in terms of scarcity as I am sure you are aware. :D

Thank You Jeremy and Val.It has been a blast learning about the players,teams,and leagues in the time I have been putting this together so far.You have both been very helpful.Val with my first taste of the Red Borders with the Titman card and a few others and Jeremy with my first Orange Border.I have also met plenty of other great collectors along the way.I look forward to many more deals and learning what I can about this set through this site and the knowledge of fellow collectors.

Thank You, Lelands and Thank You, Terrie:

I generally don’t like to show items before I get them but I have pretty good feeling about this transaction from our BST. :)

Eek!
 

:eek::eek:

That Wagner would be a nice card if it wasn't a T206 and had four borders but I guess I'm too picky, that's probably why I do not have one.........

One more off the list. From the BST. Thanks Dave!

Bill

Very nice, that one's high on my hit list.

T210-8
 

John,

nice card. So there is no mistake, I messed up in quoting his section. This is John's card(or to be)

After several years I finally was able to acquire a 1909 Boston Herald Supplement of Harry Smith.

Fixed my scanner
 

A few new additions...

No. I spent much of the night helping my daughter with homework and then dealing with an issue regarding going to another church with friends...was going to write something, and came out as a sigh I guess.



By the way bigfish, really nice Kalamazoo and Gypsy Queen. OJ nice also. Quite a trio.

^^ this.

Stunning cards Toby, congrats!

Thats a sweet kzoo bats!

Eddie Ainsmith T207
 

Glad to add this classic T207 to my collection.


Patrick

Nice!!!

Joe

Resisted this card for years but the particularly strong (and of course unusual) yellow/orange split here was especially strong, and the centering sealed the deal.

Great looking Jennings Greg.

This came yesterday. 177/180 :cool:

One more for the run. Thanks Al & LOTG!

Not yet... But I'll let you grab yours first :)

Thank You Terry and Thank You, William:

Great run Chris :)

Picked up this 1931 Reyes postcard of Cuyler from Lew Lipset at oldjudge.com, crazy detail in this one (similar to the Jennings PC I posted earlier). Here's a description of the postcard from Lew's site:

"1931 RPPC Reyes Post Card of Ki Ki Cuyler. From a very rare set of real photo post cards of Chicago Cubs taken at Spring Training at Catalina Island west of Los Angeles. I know of only 4 different cards, all Cubs, with no duplicates. The card shows Cuyler posing in uniform holding a ball. Is in excellent condition and the back is clean."

Nice T210 RC. I've been looking for this one for a while. Let me know if you ever decide to part with it.

Seem to be collecting 4.5 HOF portraits lately, without planning to. Other Bender t206s don't interest me at all.

Great cards everyone. One from last month I finally scanned and one from this month thanks to a board member.

Killer cards, John...congrats!

Tony...great stuff!

Chris...awesome! How many till you finish it?

Tony

Agree with Mike. Great stuff.

Beautiful Bender Greg....

Nice Tony. I've not seen that SC poster before, very cool :)

The EPDG, I've been trying to get ahold of a member who recently sold one....no luck.

Tony - Those are some amazing scores there - bet those look great about anywhere!

Mr Merkle brings me to 178/180. Cobby and Wags are missing...

Steve,

Wow! Almost there! I'd say you are at Camp 4 with the final two you have left on the top of your Everest.

Best,

Andy

TBob, thanks. I would trade this card as I don't need it for a set or subset. I'll send a pm.
