August Pickup

[x2drich2000]

Just got Nadja #47 in the mail today and a few others that have come in recently recently.

[Rhotchkiss]

Wow DJ, great way to start the month! Congrats. I am going to stick with Nadja theme, but will post after the National.

[RCMcKenzie]

Nice haul!

Here's a Crawford from today's mailbag. Partial name at top.

[Golfcollector]

So you guys are who I am up against on Crawford cards! Save a few scraps for me!!!

Wish I was at the National to see if I could find Crawford items I don't have!

[gabrinus]

Nice ones DJ...that Bergen is sharp...Jerry

[asphaltman]

I'm thinking I'm safe, and this Glasscock hasn't been tampered with.

[Bugsy]

Turkey Mike!

[Rhotchkiss]

I picked up the Nadja a few months ago and picked up the Newsboy today - who says you need to attend the National to buy cards at the National?

pffft, those are just as common as 88 Donruss Now that you posted it, I'll update the listing of E92 difficult backs later tonight.

This came in the mail today. I have been waiting a long time to add one of these to my Louisiana type card collection.

I hate to mention PSA in this post, but how can we expect them to catch trimmed cards when they can't even get the name of the set right?

Mothers' vs Mother's.

Picked up the last 4 I needed for my T206 set at the National. Been collecting it with my son for the last 9 years. Started when he was 5. Many of you have helped me over the years. Thank you.

Ryan,

I love the Baltimore News Newsboys set. That Cobb is so awesome man! Nice pick up for sure.

Andy

[DeanH3]

Well done Ryan. Those are fantastic cards. Congrats!!

[gabrinus]

Incredible Ryan!!...amazing Cobbs...Jerry

[Rhotchkiss]

Andy, Dean, Jerry- thanks!

[RCMcKenzie]

Way to go, Rick. Nice card.

Thank you! If I see a T213-1 Rhoades out there I will make sure you get it.

Rick

Still need for my New Orleans baseball card type set:

T214
T216 blank back
T216 Virginia Extra
T213-3 overprint
W573 with Cafe du Monde back

[Rhotchkiss]

Aaron, congratulations. That is a great story and a great picture. I am happy you have that with your son. I got two of my kids into collecting, but now they seem not as interested

One more pick-up. Super rare (pop 2, graded and I believe there is one ungraded one out there). Pretty cool PC, I think. Very psyched

[doug.goodman]

Some more M101-1s for me...

[oldjudge]

Picked up in a trade in Chicago. Two tiny dots of paper loss on an otherwise pristine back account for the grade. I don’t collect E107s, but the image of Young on this card is incredible and, much as I tried, I could not stop staring at the card.

Incredible taste Jay. That card is off the charts. Worth every penny. Great pickup

[oldjudge]

Thanks Eric!

[Bicem]

Whoa, great Cy!

[oldjudge]

Thanks Jeff. My iPhone photo does not do it justice. In person the image is incredibly sharp.

[WillowGrove]

Jay. Gorgeous.

Big congrats. Enjoy that Cy.

Congrats, Jay. Beautiful card. Nice to meet you as well.

You should tell your trading partner to post his pickup (s) from the trade!

Cheers,
Steve

[oldjudge]

Thanks Peter.
Steve-Good to meet another, albeit a lot younger, grad from the Tute. LOL, my trading partner probably sold all the cards by now.

[Rhotchkiss]

WOW Jay. Totally awesome. Great looking example too. Enjoy that. However, isn’t it a little too modern for you?

[oldjudge]

Hey, I'm a modern guy. I go all the way to 1916.

[MVSNYC]

Jay, great card.

[Kenny Cole]

Jay,

That's a really great card. Good job. I really enjoyed talking to you at the National as well.

Kenny

[oldjudge]

For me at least, the National is a social gathering where every once in a while you pick up a few cards. It was great to see all my hobby friends. Living on the West Coast now I don’t run into many as often as I used to, so that part of the National is really a treat.

[charlietheexterminator]

Rick, Glad to see you got a card that you have waiting for.

Ryan, Great start to August, some very nice pick ups.

Jay, Awesome score, that Cy is a beauty, congratulations 🍾

[oldjudge]

Thanks Chuck

[Jobu]

Holy smokes Jay, terrific card!!!

Sorry that I somehow missed meeting you in Chicago.

[oldjudge]

Let’s rectify that next Chicago National.

Excellent Ben, congrats! Great cards

[Andrew1975]

Great pickups, Ben. I love the sepia postcards....the Lajoie pose is awesome.

[brass_rat]

I enjoyed my trip to National -- it was nice meeting and seeing everyone that I did.

A dog obviously chewed up and spit out the BL350, but that's fine -- it was a "bargain bin" find, so for once I was rewarded for digging a little.

[Kenny Cole]

Traded this Josh Gibson photo to Ryan Christoff a couple of years ago as part of the deal where I got the Tomas Gutierrez Oscar Charleston. Bought it back from him Friday at the National.

[Rhotchkiss]

WOW Steve.

[oldjudge]

Kenny— Great Gibson photo!

[Kenny Cole]

Thanks Jay.

[charlietheexterminator]

Awesome cards in the 1st week,

Ben, a bunch of nice pick ups, congrats

Steve, Love the Red Cross

Kenny, Love the Gibson

Hey Steve, that was a great National for you, and a fun time for the rest of us.

[sportscardpete]

Great tinker haul!!

Hopefully I will be able to upgrade this e121 ruth one day. I believe this was part of a collection of e121 cards and this was too fragile to grade, but happy nonetheless:

[Sean]

Nice one Mike. You should join us at the National.
