Posted By: <b>Patrick McMenemy</b><p>I decided to check out the local weekend flea market here in Southern Maine earlier this morning, since I had seen a Colgan Chip, T206, and a T212 a few weeks back.<br /><br />I found an upgrade to my early PB1 catcher pin with no foxing and paper insert intact for $20.00. Insert reads as follows:<br /><br />H.B. WINDRATH<br />191 SENECA ST.<br />BUFFALO, N. Y.<br /> _________<br /><br />Buttons made by<br />The Whitehead & Hoag Co.,<br />Newark N.J., U.S.A.<br />Pat. April 14, 1896.<br />July 21, 1896.<br /><br />It's my first pickup since April 18, 2007. <br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1188672626.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1188672668.JPG"> <br /><br />Patrick

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>The PC I got b/c Turner Engle gave me a heads up to it - otherwise I'd have missed it. Thanks to Turner and others that occasionally nudge me when I've missed something on ebay.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1188676587.JPG"> <br /><br /><br />This one from ebay for $89 - I thought that was a really good price. With a $50 gift certificate, it was only $40 out of my pocket. Can't beat that at WalMart.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1188676664.JPG">

Posted By: <b>steve yawitz</b><p>That is a great card, Joann. McIntyre's T206 has been high on my wantlist for a long time. Now I think I want his Ramly, too. Doubt I'll get a deal as good as yours, though.<br><br><a href="http://imageevent.com/yawie99" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://imageevent.com/yawie99</a>

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Thanks guys. I was surprised at where it ended up. The grade comes from a spot of paper loss about 1 cm round, dead in the middle of the back. With a front like that though I still thought it was a good price.<br /><br />J

He was known for walking off the mound and stalling when opposing teams mounted a rally, a ploy designed to give himself time to regroup."

Posted By: <b>Trae R.</b><p>Thick and clean white borders, 50/50 centering, firm corners, perfect registration and deep colors -- I can't ask for more in a T206 portrait. I love finding these little gems. I'm centering my collection around them.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.t206.org/misc/11devlin571.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Larry</b><p>Is that a partial proof strip of Sporting Life with the Wagner, Cobb, etc? The colors are so deep. They look much deeper and darker than the typical blue backgrounds. Never seen anything quite like that before.

Posted By: <b>H Murphy</b><p>Hey Larry, got that uncut strip from Brian McQ. Really enjoy "different" and unique items and this sure fits the bill. As far as the colors go, the darker blue does seem a little deeper than most M116`s. If you`d like to further compare Brian has 4 examples of these panels on his web site. I am trying to get cards of the 1`st 5 HOFers and this one got 2 birds with one stone!

First September Pickup Thread
 

Posted By: <b>Larry</b><p>After looking at the back of the "cards" on Brian's website, I would venture to guess that they were part of a thick cardboard display sign advertising The Sporting Life and showing some of the cards available when sending away for the series. Just a guess.

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Here are a couple of off topic items.<br /><br />The first is a card of Don Hutson that I've always wanted.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1189217188.JPG"> <br /><br />The second is the text book from the Bill McGowan School for Umpires. I thought it goes nicely with the postcards from his school. It has been autographed inside by several major league umpires who were instructors at the school. I've included a picture of the postcard of McGowan too.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1189217257.JPG"> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1189217295.JPG">
