[familytoad]

Today's lucky haul...street value is off the charts!

[tbob]

After the rehearsal dinner for my youngest daughter's wedding Thursday night, I managed to snag another card for my D311 set. Thanks Dan!
P.S. The wedding was fabulous and perfect
Did put a crimp on my card buying budget the last couple of months though...

Nice try. But seriously, I was the under bidder TWICE for big money on that card.

[iggyman]

I guess this flew under the radar but I was fortunate enough to win this T206 Mathewson horizontal multi Piedmont back in the new Coaches T206 Corner auction.

Lovely Day...

[joeadcock]

Ignacio

that is a cool looking card. Fits the Miami scene.

[CW]

Although it is not technically "in hand", I did manage to acquire this Walter Johnson portrait with ghost image on the reverse....

Very nice

[Seiklis]

All over the place so far in the last few days but managed to find the card I missed from Goodwin.


Should be quiet until Strongsville on the 13th

[Bicem]

sweet Plank!

[Leon]

I love that it was Lionel's Plank card. I know there was a little story about it, concerning when he acquired it, or how....so there is some history to it which other Planks don't have. Congrats!!

[E93]

Congrats on the Plank!

[g_vezina_c55]

[T206Collector]

Hate to see Carter's Plank go, but I needed to have enough money for these SUPER RARE signed T206 variations, which I really did pick up at the end of last week.

[g_vezina_c55]

Verry nice Paul!

I think most of us can only dream about the Wagner.. I think a Plank could be in my grasp if I could stop buying HOFs and NY Amer. cards..
Maybe one day!!!!

[ullmandds]

Congrats on the plank...sounds like a mutually agreeable transaction...nice work!

My new old Cy is from Lionels collection...even though they were stored in separate binders...Cy told me he misses Eddie!

If ill find other t206 lionel card I will probably take it.

[tennisguy]

Nelson congrats on the Plank! It is a wonderful card! Are you thinking about adding a Magie error to go along with the Plank someday?

Again Congrats on a great pick up!

All the Best,
Ryan H.

i owned in the past a Magie GAI AUTH, i am not a biggg fan of the Magie card but yes someday i will perhaps buy a magie error.

Now i'll try to have all BASIC t206 card, no error or variation for now. When i will complete my basic set, i will start to afford variation and error. I would like to have a 514 card set with a reprint wagner héhé

after that, i will buy demmit o'hara, Magie ...

thanks you guy for all your comment.

[Jay Wolt]

Nelson, Sweet pickup on the Plank, glad everything went smooth w/ Brian on your international pickup.

Peter- if I had to have someone beat me to the punch on the E94 red background Young, I'm glad it was you. I'll keep looking for it and the violet background one....

[joeadcock]

Sorry about the confusion

Should have listed as John Ryn. Dummy was apparently given to him as he was deaf mute.

[Cooper1927]

First Tolstoi, and another Highlander...

[saltire]

@atx840

Whoa! I also just recently picked up T206s of Jennings and Moriarty. Nice cards!! Here are mine:





Got both from Kevin Savage. Just slipped the Moriarty into the binder 2 days ago.

Thanks!! Got to admit, I got a lot of satisfaction out of that one. It was fun to work on. High numbers were tough, without being quite as tricky as '66 or '67 (still working on those!!)
