September pickups

[kdixon]

Picked up another Zach Wheat Sovereign back. The other one came out of Zach Wheats scrapbook.

This should be in Tuesday's mail. Pretty good pitcher from what I've read, 177 wins, three no-hitters. He hit the Cubs first grand slam, not bad for a 5'4" pitcher

[bbpostcards]

The 1913 PCL pass has a note signed by the club owner, W.W. McCredie, in the upper right. The 1918 pass is notable because Portland was booted from the PCL that year and played in the Pacific Coast International League (unlike the 1913 pass, the signature on the 1918 pass is secretarial). More early Portland material is within the first 15 galleries at http://www.sportingoregon.com/f586168153 . Open a gallery, click show all at the bottom, and click on an image for a closer look and description. For more like the two Philadelphia postcards of Ed Plank and Claude Derrick, see the other galleries on that page, especially the Unusual Postcards gallery.

The Gehrig is a PC back.

Nice pick up, Brian. Good to see somebody from Waukesha on the board. I was born in Milwaukee, and grew up in Waukesha. Went to Catholic Memorial for two years, then North one year before moving to Texas.

Assuming 1940 is still pre-war.... after getting Jackson, I only need Joe D to complete the set.

Didn't you beat me on one almost just like that in REA a couple years ago? Great looking card, btw,..

[atx840]

That's a beautiful card Bill, one of my favorites.

[the 'stache]

Thank you, Chris.

At some point in the future, I'll add another at a little higher grade (I like the idea of a SGC 40 set). But until then, I am very happy with the one I have. It's got pretty nice centering and coloring, and the surface is nice and clean from any marks or dirt.

Super huge, congrats! Just don't go too fast and get burned out Matt. {Insert Wise Marathon/Sprint Comment}

[npa589]

That's quite a team you're fielding there Matt. All of them look fantastic too.


Really great cards everyone...

[the 'stache]

Good God, Matt. Awesome pickups!!

Luke, a very nice Heinie! Ok, that sounded a little weird.

Nelson, great pickups. How close are you to completing the '33 set?

The month of September is finishing in fine fashion. I hope to have a couple substantial additions to the October thread.

Just picked these up from SGC yesterday at Philly..........

Haha. Thanks Bill! I agree, October is looking quite appealing for pickups with the great auctions that will be running.

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Been a rather slow past few months, saving up for some large auctions next month. Had my eye on this Carey for the past year and was finally able to pick it up. Not his rookie obviously, but earliest signed card I can get right now for the time being.

This makes it my third signed E-AC card, I love this set. Great looking cards and great action shots as well.

[HercDriver]

Picked up this beauty from a fellow board member in a trade!

Take Care,
Geno
