Congrats Jeff. That Cobby is off the charts. 4k to grade a card. I need that job.
And the other cards in this thread, just great! The Goudey Ruth batting has superb focus and coloring.
The CJ Cobby is another beautiful card as well as the rest in the thread...and after only 2 full days of the month. The passion is growing in the hobby. Love it.
Congrats everyone!
I have a few pickups I'll show later...

And here's a Betz Studio Cabinet of the 1894 Orioles team with Keeler, McGraw and Jennings amongst others. I've been after this card for years and haven't had any luck in finding one with a nice image, until two weeks ago in Hunt's auction. Somehow I turned on the live auction one lot too late and missed it. Incredibly, as I was leaving the show I spotted the very card on a table at nearly a 100% markup. The seller was kind enough to sell it to me for only a 40% markup (and I was genuinely thrilled to get it).
