June pickup thread
 

Never kicked one of these off before (hope I'm not stepping on toes) but pretty excited to add this one, at a price I found to be reasonable:

That’s an awesome card!!

That is a beauty Joe.

Cobb
 

Goes nicely with your E98 Wagner -- congrats!

Joe, you should be excited, that is a beauty, congrats.

Wow Joe, very nice. Congrats!

e94s
 

2 good ones

Beautiful Jay

Thanks all, and God bless the black swamp find. I don't even care how many there are. High grade playing days Cobb was not in my vocabulary before the BSF

Mail arrived a few minutes ago. Time to find some cardboard to put in these...

Happy to add this one to the collection...

N172 Tredway
 

Historically significant player. Came to terms with Irishhosta on this one:

Wow Andrew! Great pickup!!

nice
 

Nice ones Jay, Joe and Andrew...especially love the E94s...Jerry

All that Bond Bread talk in the other thread made me do this; I'm a sheep:D

Awesome pick up Andrew, and a super-tough combo to boot. Congrats

Jay, cant go wrong with an E94 Cobb or Wagner.

Big step towards 520
 

This one kind of fell from the sky! I expected it to be #520 -- but it ended up being #516 instead.

And great pickup on the D304 Andrew -- one of my favorite cards in the entire hobby.

Nothing big for me anymore, but I do like upgrading my local teams - replaces an ungraded version:

Beauty of a card!

Whoa I didn't even know Hartley was in this set?! Very nice!

Picked up a bunch of cards in the past two weeks, I just started to snap the pics. Just want to say, all my pick ups were from net54 members, thanks Luke for this one. To all the new members, this is the best place to shop for cards and to find new hobby friends.

Thanks Dan, Jerry, Ryan and Jason.

Jason, congrats on the Demmitt. Beautiful card.

After seeing all those beauties, things are going to get a little ugly. I purchased (for very little) a group of skins from a scrapbook...about 20 in all. Some compounded their sins by also being trimmed.

Highlights: DeLong (skinned and trimmed) Terry, Maranville, O'doul, Kuyler, Traynor and Lindstorm

1933 Goudey: Collins, Traynor, Grimes and Hoyt

And the "highlight" of the lows...These US Caramels

There were also a few Goudey commons. Still, at a little over $3 a card, it is a bottom feeder's dream.

Nice shopping job Todd.

This is a Net54 pick up, thanks to Pat R.

I was fortunate to find these recently which were found in an envelope dated 1911. There was a letter inside talking baseball but not mentioning the cards.

All but one are EPDG backs and they look like they have never seen sunlight.

Uh, WOW! Major congrats on the find! Just incredible.

Cue the vultures circling... :D

Congratulations Joe.

This is what it's all about!

Sensational cards!

Joe, Awesome find, congratulations. You really need to spread those cards out and let us get a better view. It appears to be at least three HOF’er’s

Thank You Guys! Yes there are the three HOFers. I will try to get better scans posted but did not want to clutter up the thread too bad.

Happy to add a non Pied/Sweet Cap Joss port.

Amazning. This is the sort of thing that collectors dream about. Let's see some more of them!

Great cards as usual everyone! Was glad to add two more Cub HOF Kotton cards this month and picked up a few others as well. 3/4 from Net54 members!

Did I miss the part about how you came to find this envelope? I'm sure it's a good part of the story. Please share.

Thank You. It was dumb luck on my part because all I did was find the seller who uncovered them from an estate. Here are a few scans.

Been a busy month

Finished off my Butter Cream set after 6 years!!!!

Super rare Wacky Patches pack 1 of 4 on the pop charts!!!

Posted in another thread. Not really a card, nor extremely vintage, but I finally found a collectible of HOF Spinks Sportswriter's Award Honoree, Milton Richman. He apparently played briefly in the minors in the St. Louis Browns organization, which is why I wanted SOMETHING of him. I collect those HOF honorees who actually played professionally. Terrific cards this month, guys!!

A small add to the E253 set and apparently when I can't get enough candy, I pick up this horrible tobacco habit. :p Thanks Jamie!

Omg
 

sweet pick ups!

nothing on my end lately......but enjoy you guys getting some awesome pieces.....:):)

1915 Red Sox w/ Ruth PSA 4
 

Happy to get one back in the collection...

Wow Pete!

Thanks Jeff!

Pete, incredible pick up. Congrats!

I am sorry to follow that amazing post card with these, but I am too excited not to post my most recent pickups. The (Connecticut) Wagner and the Doyle come from the collection that was shown in the Detroit Institute of ArtS for two years. Needless to say, I am tickled. I will try to post bigger/better pics later.

Wow, just wow Ryan. I'm so excited for you to own a T206 Wagner!

HOLY. SHIT. :eek:

T206 scarce variations now complete
 

The Demmitt has been posted already in the thread, but I finally received the Smith (Chicago & Boston) variation today.

Been tinkering with this graphic of the scarcer variations in my set for a while, and now pleased to complete it.

At 518/520 on the Monster in PSA 4-5, and it's been a heck of a fun ride. Lots of good friends made along the way.
Nearly there now...

Ryan, Congrats on three awesome cards. That Wagner is incredible. I knew you would pick one up, just didn’t think you were going to do it the next day.

Also, great pick ups by all. Enjoy your new cards...

MIC DROP right here. Congratulations buddy!
