September Pick up Thread
 

Hope it's ok if "a rookie" leads off a month, I just received this in the mail today and was too excited not to share!!!

Nice pick-up. Congrats.

Chad

Nice Card Mike

and Glad you started it off.

Baseball sure was a gritty affair during the deadball era. Check out Chance in the center panel body slamming the first baseman, while the first baseman has his leg extended across the bag to trip up Chance.

Which makes a nice card even more interesting.

Brian

Never realized the Peerless Leader was a Cali native; I always wondered why he ended up in the PCL. Guess that explains some of it. Nice card.

My modest addition:

The T210 is from the end of last month, but I have not posted it, so here it is. The E105 Wagner was from LOTG (sucks to compete against someone you respect and loves the card as much as you)
The E90-1 Speaker is an upgrade

Been a few months since I've bought anything, feels good having these both come today!

Great pick ups Ryan...that would be my budget for the rest of my life plus 10 yrs.

Like usual Ryan.

Wow, Wow, and Wow

Great Pickups

And I appreciate you picking up and holding onto that T210 Joe Jackson for me.

We can arrange in the future for me to pick it up :):)

Some 1910 W-UNCs

Lots of gems posted already and its only September 1. Going to be a good month.

One of my fav portraits from the T206 set

Love that set Jim, nice pick ups!

Nice start
 

Nice start to the month guys...who is that leather of??...Jerry

It is a 1912 L1 Large Leather premium of Sherry Magee. Should be a HOF.

Thanks guys.

Erick, great Ruths! Congrats. Jim, very solid strip cards, I always liked the W-UNC set. James, nice Sov,

Ed, very cool piece. How do you store it? Does it fold up, do you display it on a wall?

Ryan, incredible Shoeless Joe. As for the Mello Mint Wagner, I figured you were going to pick it up.

Erick, the Ruth’s are beautiful, congrats.

A bunch of nice pick up’s by all.

2nd Wagner and 1st Joe Jackson Postcard
 

MY Wagner was lonely so he needed a friend and Joe Jackson was homesick so I got him a Postcard

The piece is a soft leather that’s about 8x10. Looks like back in the day they were pinned to the walls similar to T3s. I just have it in a hard case made for the size.

Congrats Leon!
 

Congrats Leon!

Very clean looking Ruth!

Patrick

Leon, you haven't lost your eye. Where do these jewels come from?

Picked up this 1887 Old Judge Ward from a good friend. Strong image, and this is now the oldest card in my collection by 1 year.

More mail in September. A step down from Leon’s nice 3.5 but they will do.

Damn! Jeff, all time month for you. Great upgrade Leon - that card is gold (don’t sell the one you upgraded from if you can help it)

Super charged to get these
 

Recent pick ups

This looks like we are starting faster then last month with some great pickups.

Some amazing cards Babe Ruth Cards Galore, Joe Jackson’s, a mountain of Ty Cobbs and even Andre the giant card.

We even went Leather with Sherry Magee

Congrats everyone.

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of the month brings

Thanks Ryan, Chuck, and Jeff!

Incredible pickups for Ryan and Jeff!

Great Goudey Ruth Leon!

More nice ones Ed!, Aaron, amazing Cobbs! Great pickups all around 2 days into the month!

Very excited to have picked up this sweet orange background E98 Ed Walsh for my set. Down to five more for the set.

Thanks again Phil!

Nice Uzit! Seldom seen. Agree on cool pickups thusfar.

Jeff, Aaron and everyone else, what a month so far. The T210 Jackson, Wagner postcard and Uzit Cobb are unbelievable.

I grabbed two negro league related items. My first negro league card 1945-46 Caramello Deporivito Martin Dihigo to compliment a photo I bought a few weeks back.

Attachment 476884

Then a AAA minor league ticket (Minneapolis Millers) from 1951 where Ray Dandridge played (at age 37).

Attachment 476885

Thanks Rob Great Pickups

But for me I am going into semi retirement (unless thru trade/Upgrade Down Grade).
I broke the budget and will be regrouping.
So no new items for me for a while.....

Or at Least until the next auction :eek:

Yeah, many addicts around here. Glad I am not one of them...

https://luckeycards.com/e126cobb.jpg

Leon, I have a T220 SGC 2.5 Cobb that doesn't look half as nice as yours.

Wow some amazing pick-ups this month. Congrats all! Definitely love all those Cobbs.

Chad

[QUOTE=Leon;2141198]Yeah, many addicts around here. Glad I am not one of them...

I am an addict.

I have been in rehab many times

But keep having relapses

The only Difference is that "My Crack" is the Jacksons, Wagner, Ruth, Cobb Cards

Nice e105 Wags. Figured you snagged that one after talking to you about it at the National a few years ago. Glad to see it went to a good home.

T3 swap
 

Just got these beauties in the mail today. The only thing better than buying and selling with net54 members is a good old fashioned Turkey trade with them! Thanks Jeff (wrapperguy)

Really beautiful Obaks! Congrats on those Phil. And to everyone, wow, what a month so far!

Just got these 12 t205's from Kris19. I made my own mylar 12-pocket page out of a spare comic book sleeve. Each of these fellows has an interesting bio. Let me just say Kris is a real pleasure to deal with here at net54.

Wow Aaron, nice haul. Don’t sell those bc then you would need to expand your list of unfortunate sales (other thread)

But Aaron if you decide you want to expand your list of unfortunate sales

Keep me in mind you have some really nice pickups i would to have

:o

Thank you kindly
 

Thanks guys. I’ve been looking for a Uzit Cobb for some 13 or 14 years (since I sold the one I had before). I plan on holding onto it for a while.

A couple of nice Cubs cards!

Same for you Jeff. I wouldn’t mind adding to my cherry tree when you are looking to move.

Awesome stuff, guys!

This is from LOTG (great auction, Al)...

T210-7 Louie Hobbs
 

Thanks to Lenny for this cool T210-7!

He might not be Roy but the card is a NATURAL fit for my collection.



Patrick

LOTG pick up.

nice pick up Phil

Thanks Jeff, I seem to be passively collecting these.

Nice pick up Phil.

I may be slow on the uptick, but I just noticed the spelling of Wagner's name. Honas instead of Honus. Interesting.

Hi Danny! Good to hear from you. Thanks for the shout out and the kind words. I figured I may be competing against you on the e105 Wagner (and perhaps the E105 Cobb a few months ago?). I hope all is well and life and collecting is going well.

Phil, congrats! That is my favorite card. In fact, I love it so much I commission Tim Carroll to make a Cut Art piece of that card/PC. Great example of a great card. Enjoy it.

Mike, great Cobb. I like seeing you grab that (vs a 1993 box of cards!)

I've already got an e105 wagner batting fortunately. Stumbled across one soon after we last talked. Still looking for a cobb though. 5 more to go in the set.

Thanks Ryan!

(I got both, to be honest :))

Thanks Ryan, please post Tim's art when its finished. Would love to see it.

I second the Motion would love to see it

Great cards everyone.

Love the Cobb Mike :cool:

Nice pick-up Phil.

Great Cobb/Wagner!

One of the coolest cards from the era i my opinion. Both deadball era titans together on one great card!

Thanks Chad & Erick,
Like Ryan has said before, that card represents the passing of the torch between two of the greatest of the game.

I already posted this one in a separate tribute to Home Run Baker, but I don’t post often and don’t often have a “card” worthy of posting, so here it is again!

Happy to add this to my Krause back run for a non-crazy price

Still need the SweetCap 350/25, EPDG, Polar Bear and Sov350s if anyone has a spare copy. Not quite ready to tackle the Broad Leaf, Carolina Brights or Drum backs just yet ;)

Nice cards, y'all. Here's another player from the Browns champs from LOTG, Robbie "Yank" Robinson

1912 Madden Zeenut
 

Not a biggie, but helped out by a board member. Madden played 1 game in 1910 for NYAL. He is the more obscure of the 2 Tommy Maddens in that era.

Just finally scanned this. It is super fragile and scary to touch.

Ed, that is a beauty. Wow

Love it

Great Pickup

Great piece Ed, love it.

Thanks guys, pretty much one of the coolest pieces in my Southern stuff.

Member pick up, thank you Mac. 116/120

Nice pick-up Phil!

Chad

Thanks Chad, inching closer to the end.

Yes you are. That is exciting. Keep it up.

Chad

Nice Cobb Phil!

Thanks Erick,
Mac has helped me a ton to get this far. Some great members here.

1944 Dimaggio's Restaurant
 

Another postcard. I like the writing on the back too.
