Default Finally- one I actually needed, E224-2

Most of the time I pick up cards that I don't need to fill a hole but are neat. How can an addict say no? Well, finally I picked up a card to fill a legitimate hole in my pre-war type card collection. Anyone else finally pick up a card (lately) to fill a hole? I know sometimes it can be a long time in between.....This one even has an autograph as a bonus!! (Texas Tommy type 2, for those that don't follow type cards)

Outstanding, Leon.

I just filled three holes in my Henry Johnson Confectioners set thanks to an eBay seller who listed five of them (I had the other two). I'm up to 57 now, I believe.

Leon, I thought I might have been bidding against you on that one. The auto was a bit distracting to me, but it was a great (and tough) card!

Same for me. I was in the fight but bowed out as the autograph also distracted me somewhat. But a super tough card. I am strictly a card guy but I certainly understand the passion of autographed cards as it was just my personal choice. Nice pickup Leon.

Looks to be the rookie Hoop at Huntington Ave (1909 uni). Phenomenal card!

Very nice, Leon. I'm jealous. Is that Jake Stahl in the background?

Big fan of the Texas Tommy type 2's, much better looking than the type 1's and love the rarity. Congrats!

Default Took me 3 years...

....of negotiating and bidding to finally nab this one. I avoided bidding on it on ebay in October 2006, because the signature was hard to see and not authenticated. Then once it came back authentic in the hands of a fellow collector I tried in vain to wrest it from his grasp, til it wound up in Huggins and Scott's auction, where I again failed to win it. I finally had the trade bait to make this one mine a couple of weeks ago:

Default And speaking of signed cards

Leon,

Is that Hooper's signature in the upper left corner?!

yes it is Harry's signature and has a PSA/DNA LOA.....As Rhett stated, and I agree with, I would just as soon it not be there.....but it doesn't bother me too much since it's light and doesn't touch Hooper at all...

Awesome card Leon! If the auto is a bit too distracting for you then feel free to send it my way, as I will give it a good home.
