Sebastian,

The background in your picture, seems to be advertising some sort of amazing single card collection pages 1-45. It seems to read M116's, pictures a CJ Joe Jackson. Do you recall who was advertising that find? An upcoming auction?

I'd be curious to know.

Thanks again, and some great T-206's you got there.

Tony

[The Nasty Nati]

Anyone pick up a photo of the new SGC slab?

[sebie43]

Thanks guys, and Tony that is Memory Lane's "rocky mountain collection" summer auction catalog.

[e107collector]

Thanks for the info Sebastian!!

It was posted in one of the other national threads I believe

Went not expecting much, but found multiple cards from my current wantlist...

Some tougher ojs and another Billiken for my set.

That's a nice group of OJs. I hope I have the same luck.

[Matvoo]

Nice OJ's

I'm running around today in a blue shirt, shorts and nationals hat. Feel free to stop me and chat.

[Brian Van Horn]

Nice to see John Rumierz, Dan McKee, Ed Hans, Scott Brockelman, Bill Zimpleman, Wayne Varner, Kevin Savage, George Ryden, William Chappell, Ed Hans, Ryan Christoff and Mike McKee as well as everyone else at the National. My pickups:

[clydepepper]

Cool picks, Brian- Who is that in the framed pic?

[mrvster]

land a T206 scrap????????

[bwbc917]

As always the National had an overwhelming amount of "stuff" to see. Sadly none of it was on my shopping list. Was there a Breisch-Williams in the room anywhere??? If so, I missed it.

Decided to expand the Cleveland Type Set and was last seen lugging a seat from old Municipal Stadium to the parking lot.

[Enfuego]

Very nice pick ups

[4815162342]

Quite a haul Brian!

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank you, Raymond, Anthony and Daryl.

Raymond,

As for who is in the cabinet, I do not know. I just liked the cabinet.

Chris,

I did see an E107 in one of the cross rows in a multilevel glass cabinet. The woman indicated it was currently being auctioned and to check their website, but I do not recall the vendor.

[Enfuego]

Very nice pickups by all. I'll be going to "our" version of the national in October located in Syracuse, NY. Can't wait

[Pat R]

Picked up this one with part of Cincinnati printed on the back.

[Matvoo]

Nice mclean

[glynparson]

There is one in the current Wheatland Auction. I believe that is the one referenced above.

Not on my list, but the period team change was pretty neat.

Checked a standing bat pose off my list.

I've been looking for some nice photos of early Ohio teams. They're not 19th century, but I'm glad to put them in my collection.

1911 Portsmouth, Ohio team (research still to be completed

Glyn,

Yes, that is the one I saw at the National.

[drazz5]

Not much but the marquard is one of my favorite looking cards in the set, so I was pretty excited.

Nice cards Daniel

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

I got there Friday and "missed out" on most of the 1914 CJ action. Every dealer I talked to that had any 14's had already sold them the first day or even pre show opening. One dealer sold his half completed set to another dealer during set up for $65k cash! There was one beautiful Joe Jackson SGC 4 for $25k, but I could tell the seller didn't really want to part with it and that one was a wee bit over my budget for the weekend.
I did happen to find a small dealer in the corner that searched through his wares and found a very beat up raw Zach Wheat that he was asking $500 for. We settled at $350. Mission accomplished.

[Matvoo]

Nice wheat

[Leon]

E95 Cobb...been eyeing it. Paid strong but worth it imo....

[peterose4hof]

That's a beauty Leon...nice pickup!

[Matvoo]

Nice cobb leon

[Big Ben]

Nice pickups everyone! Leon, that is a great looking Cobb card.

[e107collector]

Leon,

That's a nice looking card for the grade!! Great centering, clarity and overall eye appeal.

Tony

[Leon]

Here's another. And thanks so much, guys. It looks like we all had a pretty good run. Since I was already spending too much I conserved a bit by going even lower condition than I normally do on this one....but the eye appeal is decent...I got it to go with the T5 I recently picked up as it is the same pose...So it was sort of unexpected until a few months ago.

[Centauri]

I had never seen or heard of the T227 set, or especially that Cobb. That is one very very cool card.

This is why I come to the site.

[Matvoo]

Never seen the t227 set also. I feel like a newbie

[Luke]

Nice pickups Leon! I love that T227 Cobb.

[brass_rat]

I found this Cycle 460 Johnson in the raw on Saturday afternoon, and I'm pretty pleased. Got it slabbed the same day as I like the SGC look (although I'd prefer the case to have a slimmer profile like PSA).

Steve

[Brian]

Was fortunate to pick this one up--have been after it awhile.

[Matvoo]

Sick cycle and world wide gum

[Tyler]

[Matvoo]

Nice goudeys

[MattyC]

Amazing Cobbs, Leon.

And the centering on that Goudey Gehrig is outstanding; rare to see one like that.

[ValKehl]

I really enjoyed my 2 days at the National - wish it were more - my best pick-ups from the Show are:
(1) c.1930 Rogers Peet Clothing of WaJo. Best looking PSA 2 card I have ever seen! Has minor glue residue on the blank back.
(2) 1913-1915 large Fatima advertising poster of WaJo. While its condition is pathetic, it fits my budget nicely, and I'm thrilled to add it to the WaJo collection.
(3) E100 of Peckinpaugh fills voids in both my type collection and my collection of cards of players on Washington's 1924 Championship Team.
Val

[tiger8mush]

Val, awesome Fatima poster! Very nice pickup, congrats!

[Hankphenom]

Great pick-ups, Val. Sorry I missed seeing you, maybe I was away from my table. I was thrilled to find the 1924 Washington "Pennant Winners" pin featuring Walter for sale at the Leland's booth, and based on the price they had no idea of the rarity of that one. I upgraded my "Johnson For Congress" pin from Tom Spiker, who had the best I've seen. Also got a nice 1924 New York World Series program, and lastly, a cool newsphoto of cops escorting the tickets for the '24 series into the ballpark. A good National for both of us!
