Picked up these 2 t210s recently

Nice card Phil!

Jack, I dont know much about that set, but sounds like you got quite a rarity. Congrats

Like those Transfer Stamps Jim.

Never seen them very interesting

Thanks Jeff!!! I like the obscure stuff!

Thanks Ryan, love the 21 Exhibits.

From the BST...better than 1.5 imo....

That's a great looking Mono!

I've made some good progress on T207s over the last month, including some HOFers and a couple tougher cards/variations. All of the cards in the first group are Recruits; the bottom five are the rarer backs, including two upside-down reverse backs that I posted in another thread a couple days ago.

Been after this one for a long time and finally got one. To me, this and the 1914/15 Cracker Jack Cobb, are two of the most beautiful baseball cards ever made.

Very Nice Pickup Rich.

I was one of the under bidders but glad you got it

Great card Matt, I agree with you on the 14CJ Cobb.

A well loved Cobb…will be looking for my upgrade soon :!

Never thought I'd have the opportunity to add this card to my collection, its been on the list for a long time.

Fantastic Marsans Phil! That's a great addition to your collection my friend.

Nice to see you pick up a green Cobb Waz! Great one.

Thanks Andy,
Got lucky on this one. There's only 8 total graded between the two companies.
Hope you and the family are well.

Great cards everyone. Phil, nicely done on the Marsans. Beautiful card!

Another portrait in for my HOF run.

1916 Boston Red Sox Cabinet Photo

Where did you find the Ruth photo? Beautiful.

Very nice pickup Jeff, congrats.

1916
 

Jeff:

What is the history of the 1916 cabinet? Same image and backing layout as the Stag Sweater advertising piece but different coloring.

Some really great pickups, but a few specific shout-outs:

DJ -enjoy that Plank, he used to be mine. Awesome and super rare card. I am glad you own it.

Scott - great T206 HOF combos and good looking to boot.

Jeff - as usual, great taste, great pick up. Congrats! Can never go wrong with Ruth on the Red Sox, especially a piece as rare as that

Phil - great month so far, nice gets

Tony - great looking card per usual, except this one has the correct grade associated with it. Are you going to pop that out? BTW, please dont tell me that came from a former and notorious Net54 member??!!

Hi Ryan. Thank you my friend.

Maybe one day if Psa gets their SH!# together I may consider cracking Mr. Mcgraw. For now he will remain in the black slab.

In regards to the cards origin, nope definitely not a K. Mize purchase whom I believe you are referencing. If I were dying of thirst on a deserted island and he was there giving away free water, I’d still pass :)

Thanks Ryan! I’ve been on tilt for a Mordecai Cubs Sov since selling one years ago. Super happy to add it.

These are all October scoops but finally got the last one in today. Two are courtesy of the honorable folks here.

Hi

Thanks Ryan. Slow and Steady but I try to stay focused and stay the course.

And Ryan is Right it is another great month of items that our team at this forum that keeps collecting.

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of the month brings

Congrats to Chad from the other Chad. Another one I was bidding on but moved off of late, I'm glad to see it went to a fellow net54 member and WaJo collector. Here's where my attention went.

Awesome Ruth! Always been a favorite of mine. Congrats Pete!

Fantastic month already for the Net54 community.

A Ruth I could afford. Not from a kinetoscope which could run a moving picture, but I can't recall the term for the type of scope you could drop a penny in in the 1920s and use a crank to flip through a wheel of individual pictures in an arcade. It would not surprise me if this was from one of those machines which are still used at Kennywood Amusement Park in Pittsburgh and that this copy was from a machine in Kennywood's children's arcade. 1:17 a.m. EST Mutoscope picture.

Thanks Chad and nice pick-up yourself. Ironically I did the same exact thing on your new T205. I guess us Chad's think alike.

I’ve been chasing old King Kellly for a long time… he’s on his way to his new home soon

Congrats, Jeff! I'm 3/10 on this subset but completing it may take awhile...

This arrived in the mail last week.

Very nice Rob, congrats.

Took a break from my 52 High Numbers pursuit to pick up my first Babe, right here on Net54. A PSA 1, but a card near the top of my want list for as long as I've wanted cards. I could care less about the condition and I love it.

Great pickup Chris

Very nice first Ruth Card.

Thanks, Jeff. Feels really great having the Babe in my collection now. Every time I see one of your posts I go and marvel at your Ruth’s and Jackson’s. It’s like going to a museum!

Nice ones Brian...Jerry

Thank you, Jerry.
