Due to technical difficulties, I finally get to start this thread! My only t206 and my third e107...lets see what everyone's got, again! Thanks for the compliments in the past thread Bill. Even figured out how to resize the Cobb...

Steven and Pete, great cards. I of course love the Cobbs!
I would to echo Chris' sentiment in congratulating Erick on 400.

Pete- that's a beautiful E98 Mack, I am assuming it must have back damage to have only received a 20? Who cares? The front is super!

I stumbled across these two T205 Cycle ("1 Loss") Mathewson cards recently, apparently part of a collection of T205 and T206 Cycles. The grades seem reasonable and they're quite visually appealing. The price seemed very fair, so decided to go for it - not once, but twice!

Thrilled to have picked up this Claude Berry T212-2 150 Subjects Back Obak at an amazing price as well.
It shares the same image as my Claude Berry T4 Obak Cabinet, T212-2 175 Subjects, and T212-3 Berry Obak. Patrick |

This just came in today's mail. I posted it before in the "Top 10" thread, and now have it in hand. I'm surprised at how big it is (9"); I was figuring more like a BF2. How it is that the toughest "cards" in my collection are actually felts?

Nice one Phil!
I'm pretty excited about this one that I picked-up from a fellow Net54 member! Thanks again Peter! I confirmed that the stamp-box dates back to 1941-1943. I personally think this is from 1942 (look how skinny Campy is), but I'll call it a c1943 to not rock the boat too much! I kinda like this postcard that pre-dates his standard "rookie" by 6+ years!! ![]()

From last week's Clean Sweep Auction, this card arrived today (Wednesday) - I mailed my check on Saturday - kudos to Steve Verkman and his staff for the super-fast (and reasonable-cost) shipping!
This card is in much better condition than most of my WaJo cards, but what excites me the most is its Type 4 back (only recently identified and scarce, per Rhett's fabulous article in the Fall 2011 issue of OC) coupled with the (uncommon, per Rhett) "reverse" back (read from bottom-to-top), which hopefully makes this a truly rare card! ![]() Val |

![]() But Greg, I especially wanted to comment on your Eddie Collins. First of all, it's just beautiful. The color is incredible, especially when you consider this card has been around for a century. It's nicely centered, and has nice edges and corners. It appears a little undergraded from what I can see. Besides the T206 set, which I'm working on slowly, and the pre-war/vintage cards I want to add, I have been mulling over a personal collection of one pre-war Hall of Famer, and I think Cocky might just fit the bill. There's no shortage of Eddie Collins cards, and they remain relatively affordable. I like that he has a T206, multiple T205 cards, lots of candy cards, and is also included in the iconic Cracker Jack set. Hopefully before long I'll be able to share a few Eddies of my own. ![]()

Hey Rick. Nice pickup. I'd been watching that one for ages for my Jersey City collection but never had the funds to pull the trigger. I'm glad to see you picked it up. Someday I'll get one for my team collection.
Best regards, AndyH .

I'm glad to add my first T211.I have wanted one since the National in Baltimore.I would like to add a few more one day.I was assured it had no back issues so I'll have to see what warranted the grade once I have it in hand.

Hi Hank - Thanks for your kind words re this pickup and re the WaJos I showed in the "Top 10" thread. Of the various real-photos on WaJo cards, I think I like this one the best, even though several of the others show more pitching "action."
Best, Val |

Hi Andy,
I was watching that one for quite a while too. My birthday was last week, and my wife and daughter went together and bought it for my birthday present. Sure beats a new tie and a pair of socks. I hope you can pick one up some day. Jason, that is a nice T211. I have been waiting for a decent, reasonably priced one to come along for my Louisiana collection. Nice card! Rick

Bryan and Ian, very nice T202 adds!
One question for you guys, how do you store those? I would like to add a few more T202s to my collection, but they don't fit in any standard storage box. I have to agree with Jeff. What a stunning piece. Congratulations!

Thanks Jeff and Bill. Sorry for large scan, I took it from their website and could not figure how to downsize it. Also, only bidder on this N173 that I think had the ad trimmed away... Shut out in Sterling...(correction, I was not shut out on all cards in Sterling. Did get this n172 Tate.)

Having had to sell the Gehrig 2 years ago to fund a new home purchase, Lou has found his way home to me at last. A HUGE THANK YOU to member Andy LaVigne for contacting me after reading a post I made and offering to let me buy the card back. It is the first prewar card I have bought since I sold off my entire collection and couldn't be happier. I also went and bought one of my favorite cards off ebay after that (the Waner/Weaver). What Andy did for me is the reason this board is the BEST around. Guys truly care about each other and always lookout for one another.

Found at the Culver City Show...what is interesting is that the front depicts and ad for Dyer and Hughes Organ from Foxcroft, Maine...this was a decent sized company who advertised in several New England newspapers/magazines and was in business for a decent amount of time. The back however is certainly different for me. Most of these trade cards are found with blank backs. However, this one has a printed line on the back. It reads: "W.H. Letters & Son, Putnam, Conn." After a bit of research, I found out that Letters and Son was a music store in Putnam Conn in the late 1800s. So, I now know that this particular trade card was given to a retailer to hand out. I thought that was pretty interesting as I previously thought that most of these cards were given out by the front advertiser or local businesses...but this one was given out 300 miles and three states away!

Thank you, Bill. I was surprised to have not one, but two of the "Cycle - 1 loss" cards to fall into my lap. I was quite excited - and I was looking to add a T205 Mathewson to my collection for a while - and having this version is a bonus! ...and congrats on the T206 WaJo - great card. I have one in a "2" as well - yours looks better...I would even upgrade my "2" for your "2!" Todd |
