First submission....A big thank you to John (Wonka) for hand delivering these to SGC. Pints are on me in Chicago....I think Jennings had a few already. :rolleyes:

Quite happy with the results, a couple 1/1s and several highest graded. Here are a few.

Jennings
 

How did Jennings mysteriously jump out of his "coffin" and land diagonally on your scan??? Now that's a variation nobody has!!!

Great cards Chris! Ummmm Jennings....time for the ol desk tap or back to SGC.

Happy to have been able to help.

Cheers,

John

Great cards Chris!

Nice cards chris

Jason, Erick and Ian thanks for the kind words. That horizontal Matty is a beauty as well, Ian.

I thought you guys knew your stuff...
 

That's the exceedingly rare diagonal Jennings...nice card!!!

Nice, iconic card, Ian! Looks like the crease only runs along the right side of the card (near his name) and doesn't affect the image at all. Sharp card!

...then, after posting I click "next page" and see Chris' post.... HOLY $#!%!!! Nice, Chris!

Nice Chris.. !!

Thanks. I like(d) my card too, but then also had the same response when clicking over to the next page. Quite an amazing assortment Chris!

Thanks guys. :D

There were 12 that were out of their holder, all but Jennings tapped back in.

This grouping here would on their own suffice for a great collection.

Great Cards Mr. B!:)

E94's
 

Thanks Joey!

Love the purple, Pete!!

Great cards Pete.

I second that.

Pete. Those 4 must a set yu back a bit.

E94's
 

Thanks guys!

Nice e94's pete...i have a violet devore i got at the 95' natl in a bargain box! Yours is nicer!

Peter

What you say reminds me of my first national in Atlanta, GA in 1992. I was so out there in what I was looking for, I was sitting in these lines to get Promo Cards. If a purple E94 was in a bargain box, not sure I would have noticed.

My mind sent at that time was modern stuff including Promo cards. Boy did that change in the later 90's.

E 94 Cobb
 

Thanks to Greg for this Cobb. Condition issues but this violet is incredibly tough in any condition. I now have 5 of the 6 different Cobbs, just need one more Cobb.....

Congrats on the purple Cobb, Bob.

A pickup for my 213-2 set which is my latest passion.

A few more for my portrait collection.:)

E94's
 

Joe, I thankfully was able to pick up the purple ones for a more than fair price from Joey S, but they never come cheap. Peter, you talking about finding your Devore in a bargain bin blows my mind. I'm just a few yrs in to the vintage card hobby and can't imagine how these could ever be there. I guess the hobby has certainly evolved. Bob nice pickup on the Cobb!

So as not to derail this thread...here is a recent addition from a board member...I love it!!!! And pete...I got 3 e94's from that bargain box that day...$4 ea...those were the days!!!!

C.1915 Ruth Real Photo PC
 

Thanks to Jeff Toot, I recently completed the C.1915 Babe Ruth PC set(3 Ruth, 1 Hick Cady). Peter, I guess they were the good old days with the E94's!!!

Nice Babe, Pete. I'll give you $12 each for the E94's.:)

Those E94s are killing me. Especiallly when they are all bunched together like that :eek:

Pete- Great addition! Wow!

Great Ruth postcard!

Nice pick-up on the Ruth postcard, Pete.

I love me some authentic grade cards. I'd much rather have something like this than pay several times more for a beater.

I had a few Ruths, the Ruth check from REA and a HOF CJ (from board member). Very nice month for me.

Awesome pickups, Pete!

Beautiful E93 Bryan....I love a good handcut Auth :cool:

New Hughie
 

Thanks Jeff!

Picked up a couple of raw T210s for my wantlist on eBay, both pose variations.

Frisch W503
 

Looking forward to getting this one in hand. It's been on the wantlist for a loooooong time. Thx to a fellow board member for thinking of me.

Titus anyone?
 

Waiting to see if a forum member bought the T206 Titus card last night. ;)

+1

Just back from Beckett . Those kids need to keep up.
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...HRANES_NEW.JPG

A pair of R314 Goudey Premiums.....the 1936 issue , the Type 1 ( white-bordered with the little '' Litho In USA'' down in the BR corner ) and a 1937 Canadian Type 5 ( washed-out looking , no gloss at all , consisting of Canadian Minor League players/coaches and for some reason 12 or 13 Detroit players ).
The flip of the '37 is gibberish....''1936 R314 C.....#A17 ''.... I'll crack it out and send it to SGC or PSA unless Beckett decides to read this forum and learn about Vintage . It's a 1937 Type 5 , Dr. Jim.....

another Drum pack....a bit earlier than the ones cards came in but scarce nonetheless...

Certainly the most dramatic pickup in my small collection
 

and, unfortunately, by dramatic, I don't mean "oh, wow, pristine!" I mean I really never meant to cause that much drama here and on eBay when asking for a bidding partner to help me win the lot this card was in.

Special thanks to Bobby, who I think took a bullet to get this card in my collection. I certainly do appreciate it, sir. And thanks to everyone who lets me know when they see one.

Up to 135 Tolstoi's

Mark:

That is a beautiful VG card!

Kevin

So who beat me up tonight. :D

Congrats!!!

Thanks Chris!

Leon- amazing Drum pack BTW.

My first T206 different double name!!
 

I just picked this up today. Jimmy Jackson PSA 6 (MC) and you can just make out Hoffman, St. Louis, Amer. at the top!!

I bought this card without knowing it had another name at the top, so I may have this out as trade bait on B/S/T soon...

Steve

I still pick these up when theyre cool as this one...

Thank you for the trade, Scott:

Pick ups....
 

Great stuff everyone!

Chris

The cards are BEAUTIFUL slabbed....works of art.....

Leon

Love the Drum Pack

and I'm also loving the caramels


Mike

I have the other Sweeney triplet ! (THANKS LEON!)another fellow board member has the other triplet from the sheet....these are the only 3 POSSIBLE WITH FACTORY #30!! (that is known about currently)


you deserve that card , Mike, and I'm glad you ve come back...Your taste is impeccable with the freaks, sorry i'm such a tight ass and won't sell:o, i'm too in love with them....no one realizes that these (except for the super prints) are NO PRINTS with factory #30 because they were never finished with the strike....Jim R was the first one to really figure that out with TC and the probable no prints....shit still amazes me:confused:



Congrats all



CONGRATS!!

Thanks Johnny! i hope to slowly get back into the freaks. as you know i had some killer examples years back...looking forward to getting some more.

Best-
MS

Mike....
 

that y/b is a great great purchase.......these are only beginning to get the recognition they deserve......the scraps are the intrinsic history of the set....you have now a new tiny art piece.....get that puppy suited up with SGC ....color variation.....before you slab, sounds nuts, but sniff, feel, and enjoy the card before the entombment......that's a small piece of history, and in the future will be centerpieces for some advanced 206 collections.....you know, you've owned them before....even the factory freaks are defining some collections....by far, Jeff's Cobb one of my favorite front bottom to top m/c's...scrap is not crap, it was thought of:)..something that sets them apart with some flava, if you will.......


character in garbage:D

i'd roll in them all day...


sorry about the rant:o

Great Shoeless Joe Brian!

That was a fun transaction Mike, thanks as well & great card.

Thank you, Jeff.

I picked these up today from an older gentleman that lives about a half mile from my house. He collected them as a young boy. I've known the man for many years and never talked baseball. Recently the subject came up and these are the result.

nice job gary!

In 1989 I looked all over trying to find those to get autographed. Had to settle for some reprints but I managed to get about 6 players on each team.

Picked this one up for my T205 HOF set, just 3 more to go, E. Collins, Griffith and Speaker.
