Holy shit....these aren't easy

T207
 

Some tough ones...

Nice group, some very tough cards in there..

Wazoo sweet Lajoie T3 pickup
what's the "Texan Coll"?

1913 Fatima
 

Cool piece.

This is the only one I know of, and I'm so happy to have picked it up.

Mercy...what a card!! :eek:

Enough posts for one day. Cool pastel colors on these.

Damn, that Speaker is an incredible image. Congrats.

WOOOOOWWWWW!!!

Congrats!

Congrats, Steve. I don't recall ever seeing a nicer-looking T215-2 card.

Thanks everyone! :D

Wow Steve, that is a beast! Congrats

What a wonderful card on so many levels. Congrats Steve!

Picked up a law firm and a political ticket!

Thanks again!

Since posting, I've learned of a second type 2 example (raw and with unique identifying staining on the top). If anyone knows of a third, I'd love to see it! I collect scans of this set along with the actual cards.

The vast majority of the Red Cross type 2's all came from a collection that have the small spot of back damage/horse glue. Clean examples are few and far between. Nice card!

A little bigger than I normally collect, but I think they'll look good framed on my wall. Maybe next month I'll track down an M113 Wagner to balance it out.

I've got a reprint of this pose if you want it.

That is a sweet Lajoie Ethan! The colors really pop on that one. :D

Haha!
 

Pretty sharp I must say. Oddly enough, the colors in the real one are much better than the reprint.

So it was legit...good good

That last 1 minute was insane on him. Went from 0 to final price all in a minute

Hi Jack,

I think you might be confusing this with the miscut Type 1 that sold awhile back on eBay.

This Type 2 was acquired in a private transaction.

Cheers

Picked this up after a year of searching for one. Most exciting pickup of 2020 for me so far.

Great cards this month everyone!

Rube!!

Oh man! Where’d you track this down? Been quietly looking. Currently tracking the 4 on eBay but not hopeful I’m going to win.

Picked this up at auction. Just got it from my house finally.

It popped up yesterday on eBay when I was on lunch. The price was too good to turn down. It's been a lot harder of a HOFer to track down due to all the hoarding....eh...."collecting" ;)

Chipping away at my '33 HOF subset.

A Little Rough but Semi Rare
 

Hi

My First Cy Young.

Here is a Cy Young that is in Rough Shape but is Pretty Rare.
IT is a 1903 E107 Cy Young Type 1. I believe 1 of only 12 graded

Freshly slabbed back today!

The Joe DiMaggio is postmarked days after his 56 game hitting streak ended in 1941!

Peace, Mike

Jeffrey,

Sweet e107 Young man! Great card in any condition.

+1!

Yup I probably am!

Awesome card regardless:)

Now THAT'S funny!!!

Love it! Did you intend to snag the ticket, or did you see Cheney and actively search out a Bush to see if there was a complement?
Gorgeous classic!

..a premium from the Jack Armstrong Radio Show , brought to you by General Mills Cereal ; it's a glossy black and white photo , blank back , 5 x 7 ; looks much better in hand because the scanner setting is ''color''.....the sign on the wall reads :
"Players Must Not Bat
The Ball Toward The
Grandstand During Prac-
Tice"
...............................I believe the bottom says "The New York Baseball Club" but it's very small and I can't be sure of it.....I've never seen this particular shot of Teddy used for any other purpose , and I've seen hundreds. There is some evidence pointing to 1941 as year of issue and then Pearl Harbor happened and evidently the premium offer stopped abruptly...Jack Armstrong , The All American Boy , went to war.

Nice T212-3 from sea blaster. Cooney played 1 game in 1905 with NYAL and never made it back from the minor leagues

October keeps getting better!

2 84262610 Government Postcard Chuck Klein MINT+ 9.5
3 84262611 Government Postcard Ted Williams GEM MT 10

This batch shipped today and took a total of 2 days to grade at PSA/DNA! They like my GPCs!

I paid $50 for super express! Sweet!

Peace, Mike :eek:

Decided to take my own advice and finally pick one up. Won't be cheap for much longer:

nice
 

Awesome card, Mike.

Killer eye appeal on this one!

Beautiful and tough Matty!

Happy to have gotten my first CJ in the mail today. Great transaction and packaging by Luke. Unfortunately, doesn't fit in the stained CJ thread. :(

Added a HOF card to my raw 1935 Goudey set.

This is my first Mel Ott card...I've always liked this image (used in multiple Goudey releases like 1933, the 1935 black and white premium, etc.)
