I will never get tired of seeing this one. It's the crown jewel of my Chase collection.

This one says, " One of the Brotherhood 1890" which must be a reference to the Players' League. Kids always make me smile. Sorry for being so large.

I still remember when I won this card. Me and my now wife were in a Trader Joe's and I borrowed her iPhone to bid on it. She would not have leant me her phone if she knew what I needed it for:

The back of this Zeenut card makes me smile because of all the effort Buck Barker did to wrap the biographical info of the player on the front (not shown) around the James Cagney transfer on the back.

I get a kick out of several of the T206 players. I think Otto Knabe's picture is one of the funniest. First, the perspective makes him look short, like he has to reach way up! And then also, why does he have his hands like that? He is looking ahead like the ball is coming at him, but who holds their arms apart like that to catch a ball?

Not mine; however, this is (for some strange reason) one of my favorite T206 cards to see. It might be the joy it appears to bring its owner.

Perhaps it's also the common thread between Waddell and the card. In either case, he's not all there...

Maybe this one doesn't make me happy, but it certainly made someone happy .........

I can just imagine the "grand happiness" that some little sister felt when she most vindictively cut her big brothers card in half ................


Fun, fun, Scott
