Pre-War Collecting Year in Review
 

Posted By: <b>Patrick McMenemy</b><p>I'm curious as to what kind of year people had in collecting pre-war items in 2007. I was cleaning up my database, and I was surprised to learn that I traded away or sold as many items as I purchased during the year.<br /><br />Sold:<br /><br />Novelty Cutlery Postcard, Roger Bresnahan<br />T210 Old Mill, Lucia, Lynchburg<br />T212-2 Obak, Fisher, Portland<br />T332 Helmar Stamp, Bresnahan<br />T332 Helmar Stamp, George Gibson<br />T332 Helmar Stamp, Chief Meyers<br />T322 Helmar Stamp, Gabby Street<br />T322 Helmar Stamp, Ira Thomas<br />T322 Helmar Glassine Mailing Envelope<br /><br />Purchased:<br /><br />Boston Sunday Post Magazine Cover<br />B18 Eddie Ainsmith (Upgrade)<br />E101 Red Kleinow<br />E136-2 Barney Burch 1912 Zeenut<br />E137 1915 Spencer Zeenut w/o coupon <br />PB1 Catcher Pin (Upgrade)<br />T212-3 1911 Obak Tom Murray<br />T212-3 1911 Obak Jack Roche<br />Unc Supplement, Chief Meyers Philadelphia Evening Times<br /><br />How was 2007 for each of your collections?

I also, based upon what you bought in 2007, don't have nearly as nice a collection as you <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />I made the decision to concentrate on a few, specific areas and in Pre-War it was mostly T206 and old Dodgers/Robins/Superbas cards. I'm happy how the T206 set progressed this year, started with 1 card and now have 38. The goal for 2008 is to get to 100. <br />

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p> I dont keep an exact list of transactions like Patrick but I know I got 27 Old Judge cards this year with Anson and Delahanty being the best names but far from the nicest. I also bought a 34 Goudey Chick Hafey and an e120 Bill Wambsganns but besides that I cant think of another pre-war card but there was probably something else. Havent sold or traded anything in years
