May Pickups
 

This crisp T210-7 arrived yesterday,

A. J. Dussault was a catcher on the Rocky Mount team, and a teammate of the great athlete Jim Thorpe.

I first learned of A. J. Dussault when Rhett Yeakley found a RPPC of both Dussault and Jim Thorpe 13 years ago.

Here's a link to that thread:https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=127277

nice start to the month

Nice Brian, that Holmes to Homes is awesome.

Thank you for the kind words. It will keep these company.

Crystal clear. Beautiful card.

Wow, and those don’t have the paper loss you see on most of the (very few) examples out there. You need to get the entire subset. It shouldn’t be too hard or expensive ;)

Been looking for a Rube portrait for a while…

New Old Judge cabinet. It's a new pose that is not in the OJ bible.

Nice pick up, Craig!

And but did you find a great looking example :eek:

The pin and postcards are from LOTG. The signed Doors pic is from Gottahaverocknroll - forgive me Leon, I know it’s not vintage baseball, but I have to show it off somewhere

Busy month for me so far; the V351s are really difficult to find

Nice Doors pickup. Robbie Krieger signed? Maybe hidden in his hair?

Thanks. Unfortunately, the Robbie signature is in his hair

That's an early Doors photo.

Ryan what year do you estimate / know the photo is? 1967?

Super cool item. Nice change of pace, that's a very rare item.

The auction description says signed in 1968 while on tour to Denmark and Sweden. It will go on this wall next to the signed Led Zeppelin IV album, and I have a Trey signed White Tape Phish album to go next to that

Nice Rube Andrew

great start to the month

Love that Cy Young Ryan. Sadly I was an underbidder but glad you got it

A few Ruth’s & Gehrig’s

Rube Portrait
 

Thanks Ryan and Mark!

That's a beauty!

Beautiful Rube. Ever since I learned about his life and career, ive wanted to collect a few of his cards.

What an cool wall.

One question though, Counting Crows?

Doug

Ryan...DUDE!

That wall is crazy!

Do you have Brian Jones sig on that Stones piece?

Thanks guys. Yes, Brian Jones is on the Stones pic.

Doug, the Green Day, Counting Crows and Blondie are “fillers” that will eventually yield to the Who, Janis Joplin, Beatles, Pink Floyd and there are several others I would like - Prince Purple Rain, Nirvana, traveling Wilburys, Tom petty, Dillon, etc. That said, I think Counting Crow’s August and Everything After is one of the best albums ever made.

Picked up this 100 year old find 'in the wild' at a local antiques show.

Here are my May picks

2 Catalogs that are rare and each with a special player on the cover

Awesome Jeff! Simply f'n awesome!

Ryan, love your signed album wall!

Thanks to Luke:

I got a chance to pick this up at about the comps of the two T206s raw, so I figured, "Why not?" The Snodgrass was the first T206 I ever got (still have it) and I love Marquard's stories in Glory of Their Times. Yes, I will always wonder what backs they have.

Lot of 197 signed exhibits from Memory Lane.

exhibits
 

Great pickup on those exhibits, Jay. I was following them for the Mays cards--very nice.
Brian

Freshly graded

That's a beauty Jim. PSA 1 doesn't do it justice.

Agreed looks great

Some gamers in this week.


The first is a throwback to the Christy Mathewson days. This jersey was worn by Russ Ortiz in a game against the A's. It is autographed and came with a letter of authenticity from the A's. The jersey is actually flannel as well. I can't imagine wearing this in June in Oakland. Ortiz did not pitch that day so this was worn in the dugout.

The other gamer is an alternate Kenny Lofton from his short stint on the Giants. These were only worn on Friday night home games so Lofton could only have worn it a handful of times since he was acquired at the trade deadline.

Doesn’t look like much, but this is a tough one.

Thank you kindly Jeff.

Clark's Bread

Great card, Chris -- nice pickup!

I think Covaleskie might be the toughest of Hall of Famer Zeenuts...congrats on snapping one up Ed.

Brian

I was like 🙂

Great Dussault card. That is still one of my favorite hobby finds I have ever made. Thanks for bringing that old thread back up… great memories!

Awesome Coveleski! Such a tough one to find!
