Great card Val!

I assume your done I cant think of any other Johnson at auction that you would want or need. ;)

Hey John,
I can't agree with your comment right at this moment, but hopefully, I'll be in a position to agree with it come Super Bowl Sunday morning, assuming that a certain collector with deeper pockets than me doesn't decide he can't live without the WaJo card you know I covet! :D
Best,
Val

I'll go over to his house Val and tie him up in the basement not only will help you out but I'm sure his wife could use the time off. :D

John,
Many thanks in advance. Just be sure to tie him up in such a way that he can't use his keyboard, especially if his computer is in his basement! ;)

Nice pickup Val.Its good to see the Wajo collection growing!

Can't wait to see your set come together as well. I am focusing right now on trying to obtain a nice Greenberg for my set and a few of the higher number ones. But hey that doesn't mean I won't be trying to pick up others. There is a nice 5 chuck Klein on the site here for sale I'd pick it up but it's sgc. Anyway can't wait to see what you have coming in.

The color really makes this. Also: rookie card.

Very nice, Greg.

For a couple of my buddies who I know never venture over to the Post War thread (which has been live lately, swing on by!). Others please forgive the Post War post in these here parts; no offense intended.

I was after one of these SO, SO BADLY; all I ever dreamed of was decent centering OR registration/focus. Never thought I'd get both in one card.

Virtually my favorite CJ, came out of nowhere, thanks to Tom P.

Greg,

Looks way better than a 3 from here!

Nice pick up Matt! The Paige is a nice addition to your collection. I took a look at your cards, and you have some beauties!

From Goodwin last night.

Nice score on the Abbott...and one of my favorite backs to boot!!

Me too Mike:D

MattyC, yes, looks like a 5 but a couple of wrinkles under the old the magnifier. So, for me, perfect card--looks fantastic, great centering, and price down due to wrinkles you can't see....

Hey Wonka John, whether it's because you carried out your "plan" (most likely! :D) or it's because I outbid you know who for the first time ever for a rare/scarce WaJo card (not likely!), I am PUMPED at having won the 1921 Herpolsheimer WaJo in last night's LOTG Auction!!! I'll show this card in the LOTG pick-up thread. Thanks for the encouragement you gave me to go for it!

BTW, I love the fabulously strong images on all of the OJs that you have picked up lately. I have 70+ OJs of Washington players, and I don't think any one of mine has an image as strong as any of yours!
Best,
Val
