McPhee

Ewing and Mascot

Kelly

Wow Jay, those are amazing. Still my favorite issue.

I would love for you to post your favorite five from your entire collection.

I have no idea what those would be. It’s like picking your favorite child.

Great, Jay! In your Old Judge book, it says there is one McPhee known in a museum collection. Is yours a recently found copy?

It was found after the book came out

Well done, Kevin!!
Those are 5 amazing items.
Impressive that the Rose WaJo didn't make the cut

Thanks Craig. On a different day, the Rose of Johnson probably would have made the cut. I decided to go with cards featuring five different subjects and I went with the Weiser RPPC this time.

Just like I told Jay, I would love to see what your top 5 would be. I can only imagine.

well like Jay said it's impossible to pick but this one will always be near the top

Wow. You went right for the jugular. That card is at the top of so many want lists.

Beautiful card Craig!

The big boys finally came out to play!! Glad this thread got bumped!!

Incredible w600 Cobb. How many known?

Thanks guys,
lot of amazing items in this thread.
Jay, love your n173s. I really enjoy collecting and seeing the tough items you don't see every day
Big Ed and little Ed (n172 and n173)

Big Tris and little Tris (Horner cab and m116) not to scale!

Craig - love the Horner of Speaker. I always wondered where that was buried.

My 5 Favorits - Multiple Sports
 

It's been a while since I visited the page, and even longer since I last posted. Nice to see some familiar names are still here.

Attached are my 5 favorite:

Baseball cards from my collection (all sold years ago)

Boxing cards from my collection (still have the Newsboy, N150, and Romeo). The Newsboy Sullivan is the only known example.

Hockey cards from my collection (still own them all).

None of the cards are sized to scale.

Seattle-centric
 

Unbelievably great items, everyone. Sensory overload.

Being a lifelong Seattle resident, and avid Seattle collector, I thought I'd show five....okay seven.... of my favorite Seattle baseball items.

1. 1890 leather encased season pass. This was the first professional team in Seattle, the "Seattles" of the Pacific Northwest League. The pass was issued to Samuel Crawford, who was a founder of the first real organized baseball team in Seattle, the 1870s Seattle Alkis.

2. 1903 Seattle Siwashes, cabinet photo, Pacific Coast League. First year of the PCL.

3. 1907 Seattle Siwashes Northwestern League program cover. Love the graphics on this one.

4. 1909 Seattle Turks, Northwestern League championship watch fob. First professional baseball championship team in Seattle.

5. 1939 Seattle Rainiers championship ring. First pennant for the Rainiers, and first of three consecutive.

6. Sculpted plaque of legendary Seattle Rainiers and PCL manager Jack Lelivelt by famed local sculptor Alonzo Victor Lewis. Was displayed at Sicks Stadium, along with plaques of Emil Sick and DE Dugdale.

7. Actual second base from Sicks Stadium, painted by Seattle PI Artist Stu Moldrem, and presented to Tommy Harper on Tommy Harper night in August, 1969.

the only thing on my walls...deserves to be in a favorite piece thread

Wow, fantastic stuff, thank you for showing it.

Awesome composite. Those are a lot of Horners!

Amazing items. Can't get over how cool that painted base is.

Hey Andy,

LOVE your favourites!
If you ever want to sell or trade for your Cleghorn Sweet Cap...
Let me know!

I wish I was Kevin...absolutely love your taste. Maybe you should do a straight week of your favorite cards from that day. Beautiful!

Kevin has impeccable taste.

And being in Seattle, love Dave's museum worthy pieces.

Great stuff Dave!

Mike, those are some high grade examples of very tough to find condition cards. Congrats!

Leon, just for old times, please show the very rare E90-1 Cy Boston football helmet variation card. It remains one of my personal favorites. Thanks. John

Sorry John, all of the other images of Cy were deleted. Here is a current collection fave. (shown before but I don't have too many faves any longer)

Some pre-war movie cards.

!939 PB Williams
 

Wow,! Centering on that whole issue is notoriously crummy. But to have that kind of centering on that card. Wow, again.

Ted Williams Rookie
 

Leon,

That just may be the nicest Ted Williams Rookie for the grade....WOW!!!!

Joe T.

That tiny spot of paper loss on the back must have saved the day.

Every year at the Shriners show we all talk about incredible hobby pieces with the other dealers in our area and this one always comes up. John never gets tired of talking about it Leon!

Not sure how I missed Dave’s Seattle post. Those are incredible items! Leon your’s Is pretty nice too!
