TL;DR

I got little crazy with the phone camera, and thought I'd share what I saw with those who couldn't make the show. Lots of high priced stuff, but most of the vintage sellers I spoke with said that there weren't a lot of sales going on. Excuse the lousy photography. I'd blame the camera, but that would be telling a lie

The Cards:

E102 Cobb



Goudey Ruths



Purple Joe Blanket



Green Joe Blanket



T200s ChiSox & Tigers



D304 Mathewson



A pair of tickets to Game 2 of the '38 Series at Wrigley. Dizzy Dean took the mound for the Cubs, but couldn't hold off the Yanks down the stretch.



Jimmy Foxx



T206 Stars



Orioles: Thrice champions!



Two of the four T206 Planks I saw. Never saw a Wagner or a Magie. (LOL at the spell checker telling me Magie is spelled wrong!)



Those are the cards I did not buy. I didn't come home empty handed though. I picked up two cards of the three I needed for my 1908 Cubs set. I'm trying to get one card from each member of the team, and scored a Vin Campbell and a Del Howard! Only guy left is Andy Coakley. Wish he was in something less costly than the T204 set!





And the haul, such as it is, in total:



You might wonder what I'd be doing with a box of 1990 Score FB and a 2013 sticker book. Those are the best buys I made all day. My five year old told me he wanted to "do baseball cards" with me after we got home and to pick him up some football cards since he didn't have many in his folder. So I get to open a box of football cards with my son Otis tomorrow morning and he gets some stickers to play with. It promises to be the highlight of my weekend!

Hope everyone got what they wanted at the show.

Mike
