What a great array of cards in this month's pickup thread! Gillette N172s and a Wilkinson M116 Cobb, a D304 Matty and an M110 Lajoie, and a Thorpe Zeenut no less. Lots of T210s (love that O.C. Jones) and all those pesky T206s, too.
Here is my second installment in this thread which includes some auction house winnings that have trickled in of late.
Always wanted a Ruth autograph and preferably on a card. Picked this up from an auction house that I had declared I would not patronize. Goes to show you what a slut I am, when it comes to cardboard anyway. Can anyone relate?
Can't remember if I have posted these two cards which I won in the Legendary auction. I am still not quite over watching that lot of 19 Old Mill cabinets soar into the monetary cosmos a while back in Verkman's auction. This Wingo takes a little of the sting out.
Am pleased to add a Plow Boy as a type card to my collection.
This acrylic painting of Nap LaWolf was done by Arthur K Miller. It's approximately 14 inches tall. I purchased it online from an art gallery in San Francisco. I think I'm going to put a less ponderous frame on it.
Big Thanks to Board member

Bought the Toleteros Artie Wilson off eBay about the time he passed away the other week. His son, also named Artie, is a local basketball legend here in Honolulu.
I couldn't believe my good luck in landing this T210 Yaeger via the BST from a good ol' boy in Tennessee.
Lastly, picked up this color postcard of Swayne Field which makes a nice companion for the black-and-white job I posted earlier in this thread.
