Here is my T206 Walter Johnson, graded an SGC 60. One of my favorites.

You must be married, too. First thing you find out is you no longer have your Johnson. :p

Well, I got one, but don't tell my wife! :rolleyes:

Just kidding, she is great (and so is my Johnson). :)

It's a dead heat between he and Lefty Grove in my highly sabermetric influenced opinion, A.J.--virtually identical ERA+'s, which corrects for the ERA and the varying conditions under which the game was played.

Sorry, no scanner, but mine are the 1910 PC796 and 1913 Fatima Washington issues (with the latter representing Walter's best year: 36-7, 1.14 ERA--what a stratomatic card he had!!!).

Highest regards to all,

Larry

Walter Johnson's rookie card from 1908. AFAIK, the only HOF rookie card from the Rose Co. Postcard set - unless a Speaker from the set actually exists. This is 1 of only 2 or 3 known.

Not a card, but my favorite baseball statue by Ulrich Dunbar in 1924. Can you tell that Walter Johnson is my favorite player?

When I went to post mine and saw everyone's high grade cards I was embarrassed because mine is only a PSA 2MK. Then I thought for a second and said to myself.......but this is a Walter Johnson, who cares what condition!

Hey Brian, you failed to say whether you considered my response time to be fast or slow! :p

Scott, I wish my T204 WaJo looked half as nice as yours, or even one-third as nice! GREAT CARD!! But, I'm happy just to have this beat up example.

I have two studio portraits of Walter, most likely 1920's, that I picked up from a major collection about forty years ago. I have never seen anything like these. Photos were taken in Los Angeles. The second photo was a potential advertising photo that has Walter holding an Oh Henry candy bar. Two of my favorite items.Both are about 7.5x9.5 in size

53Browns 01-27-2016 10:20 AM

Is it just me or does WaJo look a bit like Robin Williams in the previous photo?

I have two Johnsons, but only one Ball (Neal)

I won't be showing these to anyone soon.

Only because I wanted to play too and who can resist a good innuendo, I will offer my tiny Johnson for your viewing pleasure. Obviously I can't hang with the big boys on this one, but I loved this particular subset as a brand new collector in the late 70s.
