June Pick Up Thread

[Rhotchkiss]

I have sold a lot of stuff this year, leading many to ask if I am giving up cards …. Nope, I just picked this up last light.

Well, I didn’t expect a once in a decade+/generation card to come up like that.

Thanks all and congrats on some amazing pick ups so far this month.

Wow and wow.

That is indeed a Monster pickup.

Congrats and I am sure that jumps to the of your collection or at least close to it

Ryan will no doubt own the month by picking up that monster! Congrat's Ryan!

Here are a couple more hall of fame 300+ game winners just in to keep the pitcher theme going!

[rats60]

I picked up my first Drum back.

[Aaron Seefeldt]

I too sold some stuff to allow this acquisition. I’m truly grateful!

WOW! what a pickup.
June already has a lot of great cards in this thread!

[sportscardpete]

What a great start to the month, nice pickups everyone!

Nothing too special, but these two Cycle 460s arrived within the past few days. These help to put me over 250 in my journey to complete my master T206 White Sox set.

How about that '47 Brooklyn team. Another few off my want list. Not sure why Jackie is only a 4.

[Aquarian Sports Cards]

because they never give these more than 4's lol. We had a stunning complete Yankee set, original envelope and virtually no wear. We got one 4.5 and a pile of 4's and a couple 3's

At least they are consistent (in being wrong!) lol

I'd have to think that these are similar to grading the premiums from the 30s. Hard to get higher than VG-EX because the paper is so thin and lends itself to bending easily.

Welcome Phil to the Fenway Barker Baker club!

Frank's unibrow rivals Wally Moon's. I never noticed it on my card...perhaps your scan just brought it out in all its glory.

I rarely pick up items from the 19th century, but I could not resist this scorecard initialed by Harry Wright and listing Anson, Sunday, Clarkson, etc.

[mordecaibrown1]

Pretty rare wags same image as the Orange Border

[Leon]

That's a cool pose for sure....

Here's a W530 blank back below it...

Nadjas all around.

On June 2, 2008 I won a Police Gazette supplement of Al Bridwell on ebay, putting me one step closer to a complete set.

A couple days after I won, a guy on ebay sent me a note explaining his connection to Bridwell, asking if I would sell it to him. Being too nice for my own good, I said yes, selling it to him for the amount I had paid plus the postage to send it to him.

In the "no good deed goes unpunished" department, it took more than 16 years before I FINALLY found another Bridwell, so I'm again one step closer to set completion.

Still looking for :
1901 Matty
1904 WS Teams
1905 Chesbro
1907 Keeler / Kleinow
1909 Burch

The hunt continues,
Doug
