Merry Christmas Mathewson!

Few people realize that Mathewson's real name was Christmas. It's true. You could look it up on Google or Wikipedia. But I wouldn't.

Merry Christmas and beautiful cards everyone. Dan, why did that Hindu backed Mathewson portrait grade only fair? That's a great card.

(I had no idea that was his name)

Five network54 boys took a time machine back to 1903 and decided to take a photo with
Christmas Mathewson and the boys.
(Jim B, Steve M., David M., Joe D. and Dan B.)

Steve - you fit all too well in this photo - you look like you belong on that team!


Merry Christmas Mathewson.
(happy holidays.... and a festivus for the rest of us)

I was going to plug in a bunch more N54 faces - but too many photos are no longer showing up in the "show yourselve's" thread. So I put in a handful of matty /or postcard /or memorabilia guys.

Thankfully - you have your photo on your site - I had to have you in there.

Not sure, I think SGC has their head up their a** sometimes. I think it was in a PSA 3 holder, but SGC holders looks much nicer! Doesn't matter to me, cause it's not going anywhere.

I think that is a card in which I would get a 2nd opinion from SGC, if you ever go to sell it. Even if there were paper chipping on blank areas (which I doubt there is) this card is not a FR card....It's at least a GD and maybe VG.....Just my opinion from the scan.....btw, SGC will listen to what you have to say concerning stuff. Sometimes they agree and sometimes they don't ....


edited to add.....Nice work on the Matty PC, Joe....

Rob - I find the dark cap variation much tougher then the white cap version, which you never see for sale.

Regarding Dan K's T206 Matty Hindu, the reason for the low grade is probably the paper loss on the lower-right corner of the back. Here's a copy of a full Hindu back:



Notice the right edge of the banner and the border...they're missing on Dan's Matty.

Nice catch on Dan K's card. That amount of paper loss and he's lucky for the 20.....Still a beautiful card.....

No way a 6 -- that's a 7.

Did anybody actually google "Christmas Mathewson" like I did? I think T206 collector fooled everybody into believing that. Or, maybe everybody else knew he was joking and I didn't. No first name Christmas here: http://www.baseball-reference.com/m/mathech01.shtml

Posted By: JimB

I collect cards in everything froms 1s/10s and 2s/30s to 9's/96s. Depends on the card, not the holder. This one happens to be a 7.
