July Pickups

[Throttlesteer]

I haven't seen one yet, so here we go. I love the big puffy borders....

[Leon]

Love the big border T206s....

Here is a cool RPPC that I am not sure I have shown before..

[Bugsy]

I've always thought this is an underappreciated set.

Shame that the new July pickups thread was relegated to page 2 on only July 6th.

So here's a bump.

Newly back from SGC this week. Purchased many moons ago, including the Gordie Howe in July of 1997

My first submission since SGC went to the single digit, huge font numbering

[Throttlesteer]

Awesome HB Heilmann. If you ever get bored of it, let me know. I just happen to be local too.

[C-mack]

Love this place!

You need to change your setting to 80 posts per thread, not 10. It is done in the USER CP (Control Panel) on the left side of your screen. Then you won't hit the second page for many more days.

Just look mid screen to your left right now, for the words USER CP. in the dark blue line..click on it then go to EDIT OPTIONS then go down to Thread Display Options and change the 10 posts per page to 80 posts per page. Then hit Save Changes at the bottom. All done.

Thanks to Bryan for pointing this one out to me on eBay. A new advertiser that wasnt on the master list and is from Pittsburgh, Pa. Whats cool about this advertiser Kaufmann is they have been in business since the 1870s!

Jay,

Sorry to disappoint, but Kaufmann's went out of business in the early 2000s. The Kaufmann's clock is still around, but the store, which became Macy's in downtown Pittsburgh, is being converted into condos and shops. The other connection to the Kaufmanns is the famous residence Fallingwater.

[BeanTown]

I see that now. Looks like at onetime they had the entire city block. Nice to see a company stay in business for as long as they did.

[mybuddyinc]

Cool mis-cut .... always nice to add another 460 EPDG ......

Fun, fun, Scott

[Vintagecatcher]

Picked up this decent looking Red Dooin T3 Turkey Red on ebay.

Presents nicely with a tiny pin hole in the top border.

I know this won't do much for most here, but I liked it as a type.

It's my favorite card in the pickup thread so far.

+1 Very cool and interesting card!

[mullings]

Since I won't be buying his cards, I like this.

Looks like you got the bottom of Willie Kamm's card on top, in case you were wondering.

THanks Glenn. Yes, I was wondering.

[x2drich2000]

Very happy to add this to the growing Davis back run

[ValKehl]

Very nice, DJ! You are catching up with me with respect to my Jennings back run. As you know, Davis & Jennings are in the same sets. But, I don't expect to ever see, much less own, a Croft's Candy of Jennings with the red back.

[Rhotchkiss]

Nice DJ!

Val, I hope all is well. I will miss you at chantilly - I assume you are going, but unfortunately I am not. We need to get another trade-party/get together rolling. Maybe in he fall.

[ValKehl]

Ryan, I'm still breathing and kicking, so I guess all is good! Yes, I'll be at Chantilly. I hope you will put together another collector get together - if you arrange it when the fall Chantilly Show takes place, I think you'll get the best turnout - to entice you further, I'll even bring and show you what I obtained in trade for a certain T214 card!

[Jobu]

GREAT colors on that Davis, DJ. Congrats.

And another nice tough card for Brian. I hope your pm box isn't full.

[Scott L.]

I used the $ from my Elite 11 Ewing card to help with this. It didn't last long in my paypal account.......never does!

It is good looking, great corners. Is the color faded, or is that just the photo?

[Sean]

I got this one in March, but couldn't post until today due to scanner and computer issues. I don't know why they're sideways. Where's Chris Browne when you need him? (Thanks Leon)

[JackW]

Wow!

The red is definitely light, but the colors in his face, on the jersey collar etc. don’t seem to be faded, so not sure what accounts for the light red...

Sweet Cobb back!!

[charlietheexterminator]

Sean, Incredible “Big-Time” card, congratulations 🎉🎊

[CobbSpikedMe]

Sean, love the Ty Cobb back. Always like seeing examples of those.

That's a very interesting Miller. Shame about the tear. Is there anything on the reverse?

Andrew, Scott,Andy Chuck and Dean, thank you very much. I never thought I could afford one of these, but my girlfriend told me to "go all in", so here it is.

[Rhotchkiss]

Awesome Sean! I remember when you won the card, I was so happy for you - I am happy all over again seeing you have now posted it. BTW -- your girlfriend sounds like a total keeper!

Lets keep the serious card-train rolling: I picked this up last night in Mile High - I still gotta pay and receive the card, but I am too excited to wait.

[x2drich2000]

Ryan, what, that's it? Nothing else to show?

[Scott L.]

Incredible card Ryan......congrats!

[the-illini]

Amazing pickup Ryan - the M101-5 Ruth is one of my dream cards - congrats!
