June Pickup Thread!!!
 

Show us your pickups!!! A week or so until I’ll post my new addition!

Here is one...

holy smokes LEON....... what a beauty :eek:

Leon...that Ruth is fantastic. What in the world is making that a 1.5???

Two small bits of paper loss on his arm (one can't really be seen in the scan)... very fortuitous ones at that.
.

I have a couple of cracker jacks with a small amount of “paper loss” on the reverse that got “2”s. Otherwise they are fantastic. I guess I get the technical grade standards, but your Ruth and my CJs just look too good for those grades.

Great pickup

Definitely a nice card, Leon. I was a bidder as well, I'm glad to see it went to you!

It ain’t no Ruth, but ...
 

#384 in Howe’s rebuilt collection just arrived.

Nice #181 Leon, you don't find them that centered too often.

Picked up another west coast type addition.

Thank you to Jay for this one.

Nice pickup Leon, I was another underbidder on that one. Glad it went to someone on the forum. I was able to pick up this Hornsby, now down to 6 for my HOF subset.

Congrats! I'm so happy to see you finally land one, and a damn nice one at that!

Another Cy, arrived today.

Picked this one up from a fellow Net54'er. I couldn't be happier.

Upgrade to the master set, member pick up, thanks John.

Very nice Chance Phil. Great upgrade my friend.

Thanks Chad, making progress!

Took a chance
 

Won this in May, but didn't pick it up until June. This is from the seller's auction, as my scanner is not hooked up at present, but I was giddy to discover that the distracting white blotch over Frank's head was on the scan and not the card--something I learned when I researched the card prior to bidding.

And a very nice looking 2 at that

No disrespect intended, but Frank is walking like he could use a little Preparation H.

Frank sometimes had digestive distress. Here's a lithograph from the same photoshoot :D Love these "action" shots:

One day, I'll figure out how to scan and upload stuff. Fantastic stuff, folks.

I like the Epson V600 scanner, about $225 new. Easy to hook up easy to use, there's also a member post here about scanning pictures that answers more questions that one could ever have. I'll try and find it or maybe another member has it handy.

Woah, that Joltin' Joe was made for that SGC holder; looks fantastic - congrats!!

.

Nice "Happy" Brian!

Thank you, Bill.

At a Local Auction - VERY POORLY advertised!
 

NEVER thought that I'd own one...

Those are nice T205's, gang. Broad Leaf is a great find and Wheat is very sharp. Here's a lower grade Wheat from T213-3 that arrived today. Now at 63/70

Wheat
 

Nice one Rob...Jerry

Very excited about getting this!!! I had to sell a bunch of cards to put together the PC796 set. Trying to get some of the cards I had to give up about 2 years ago. The card is a tad bit skinny, but it presents better than most grade 1’s and grade 2’s.

Great start to the month, some great pick ups. Congrats. I always enjoy this thread.

Beautiful card! Congrats.

These two Turkeys arrived today. and Spoiler Alert! I will not be cracking out the Chase to rip up :)

I'm weird, I'd rather have a ton of commons to play with than a single superstar. Got a big batch and a small batch from the BST to spend this weekend sorting and cataloguing. Thank you, gentlemen!

My first T205!

Congrats! That's my only 205 too.

Larry McLean PX7 Domino Disc
 

Picked up a nice McLean PX7 Domino Disc that arrived today.

Patrick

SWEET start to what can be a VERY addicting set!

Good Luck!

Yesterday's haul.

Thanks, Jerry. I'm making a lot of progress on the T213-3's.

Here's another back I'm working on that is going along slowly. From last month, just getting around to scanning these Cycle 460's... the Crandall also adds to my Doc Crandall port back run, I think I'm only missing UZIT now, not sure if I have all of the SC's.

Wow gimmie

Got this in today's mail.

Two Happy Hindus ..... :) ...... and a Tough Tolstoi ....... ;)

Attachment 462787


Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

Board pick up, thanks Pete, and one from the outside world for the T206 portrait run.
_

The Dougherty portrait is one of my favorite T206s. I just love the purple background on this card. Nice Wagner addition too Phil. ;)


.

Big progress arrived today on my T205 Cleveland Naps collection. From a recent Greg Morris cards auction.

Here's one you don't see every day. A 1936 R301 Overland Candy.

A few more from the BST, up to 98 fronts. I'll get to 500 or so eventually before quitting because I won't complete it anyways, can't justify a Wagner

Just picked up recently.

My 6th T204 Ramly
 

Thrilled to add this nice Lou Criger T204 to my collection.

Patrick

Thanks Chris, happy to get the Mitchell Proof back, and thanks to Adam for the Bender...

Two awesome pick up’s Mike, love that Bender

Thanks, Chuck!

Really glad to make a deal with a fellow n54 member for this card.

Some decent activity for me of late. 99% sure the Herzog SC350-460 is handcut from a sheet. Great help from Ron Kornacki on learning a ton more about it and his unique set. Love this board and all the great collectors!

Bill

West Coast type additions from the outside world and a member pick-up on the Obak, thanks Joe.
_

Member pick-up, thank you Tom.

Here's a good example of buy the card not the slab.
This one has quite an interesting back-stamp which I would guess is from the 1920's inspired by the Moorish Revival period in the US. I went to Andy's back-stamp database and it looks like there are a few others out there with the same stamp. If you have not been to Andy's site it is an incredible T206 back-stamp database and I highly recommend a visit: https://thegreatt206backstampproject.yolasite.com/

I'll take a card in this condition with a back-stamp all day long.

All alone and stuck at work on my birthday, but it's a T206 mailday! It all balances out.

Added this T206 Harry Davis for a good price – hoping to use as a trade for a Providence Gray or one of the sunset subset at some point. Definitely going to enjoy looking at it until then though!

Beautiful Cobb, well centered, no creasing, and a sweet back stamp. Thanks for the plug Phil. If anyone has any back stamps that aren't yet on my site please send scans to me so I can add them.

Thanks,

Nice Davis. Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Peanuts! Nice pick-up.

1917 CM Joe Jackson
 

Picked this up at Clean Sweep Auction should arrive in a week

1917 CM Joe Jackson. Had to jump on it since they do not come up to often.

Nice pick-up Jeff, great looking Jackson.

Jeff, great card! Absolutely amazing!!!!

Congrats, I had a feeling it would end up on net54! :) Yes, they don't come up often. This card was calling me, but it wasn't meant to be. Glad to see it in the net54 family, enjoy it!

Picked this up at the Philly Show on Friday. Down to just Boston NL and New York AL to complete the set.

Slowly chipping away at a T205 HOF subset. 2 newest additions arrived last week.

Tony, as I always tell you, you have such a great eye!...Awesome additions, very cool idea to do the HOF subset.

As you know, I'm a T206 guy, but over the years I've owned some T205's...Love the artwork on them...And when you get Tinker, Evers, Chance, they "sing" when you line them up!

Tony - Those Goldies are spectacular!
Congrats.
RayB

Might be the toughest card in the brand subset.

Michael, Ray - thank you!!

Picked up the t213-2 Matty. Picking away at the set…damn, sideways again. Still have no idea why that happens or how to fix…..fixed it!! Thanks for the help below.

Anyway, really nice for the grade even with the vertical crease.
