Great stuff, Derek, especially the Jackie!
|
Thanks David and Phil! I've been filling quite a few holes lately. I'm up to 66.7% complete using a broader definition of HoF "rookie" cards and 49.67% (149/300) for my ideal "single-player image" rookie collection.
I still have a long way to go, but those four certainly helped! |
Well...

It has been quite a year so far, might be coming close to topping last year, which I did not think was possible. Besides the Mantle signed rookie, I just got these 6:

Happy to bring one of my first ever signed T206s back into my collection. Welcome back, Paddy!

Great pick-up on the Matty, Greg!

|
Nice BENDER!
It'll be awhile bf you see another. Great pick up. |
My first Wagner

Nice card, Jake. Weren't those previously listed as a 1909 issue?
|
This isn't a card and maybe not so valuable, but I was happy to pick it up. Page from a Providence newspaper featuring an amazing pitching duel. Not sure why the famous (infamous) Lefty Williams is called "Cy". The game was played in less than three hours! Johnson had a big hit in the 18th to contribute to the lone run. At the bottom of the page is a small article about how the White Sox are missing Joe Jackson's bat. WWI was ongoing and Jackson was working in a shipyard to avoid the draft. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...91805150.shtml

A beauty of a '2' and a much needed upgrade for the set. Thanks Doug on B/S/T.

Thanks Jeff, it has a small bit of paper loss on the reverse which made it affordable for me. I will take that anyday....

Jantz, nice Chase double name :) I'm again sizing these down hoping they present a little better, BVG scans come out the worst for me (I can't wait to get a new scanner :o): Thank you Mike (freakhappy) for this beautiful blue Chase portrait BVG 2.5 (looks even nicer) Thank you Jantz for this Livingstone SGC 50 (awesome card :)) It was a pleasure dealing with both of you !!! *whoa, sorry-I don't know how that happened :o |

500th post and new picks
6 Attachment(s)
I thought I'd celebrate my 500th post with some of the latest familytoad incomings.
T204 Collins courtesy of B & L auctions E96 Mack, E210-2 York Caramel Sisler and Goslin ,T205 Schlei, and T206 Marquard just came back from a big SGC submission. I've had Marquard close to 20 years. Nice, eh? |
Congrats, Brian! Nice numerical determination by SGC on your Rube, and that's a sharp, clean image on the T204.
