For a D.C. guy, these are nothing less than astonishing. I had never even heard of the Washington Giants, much less seen pictures. Makes me wonder what kind of coverage they got in the black press of the day, if any. Feel free to decline to answer, but I'm curious what you paid for it. My old Hunt's password seems to have become defunct due to inactivity, I guess.

I really like Orange Border cards, and the Plank is a great looking example from the set. Congrats on the pickup. I cropped and resized the image to make your card look even more greatastically better.

[bandrus1]

Thanks Brian

I'm still struggling with the photo uploader. It won't let me upload files just take pictures directly

[puckpaul]

Picked up these two this month. Tough Speaker postcard and another Greenburg error. Looked nice and was pretty reasonable I thought so bought another copy of my favorite card.

It's definitely always cool to own something this rare

Will go to SGC but honestly I have no clue what the market would be these days. It seems like one of the nicer examples

[gabrinus]

Nice pickups everybody...Jay I like those E94 overprints...Like that Orange Border Plank too...Jerry

[AMPduppp]

Forgot to post this pickup off the BST: 1908 Lancaster Lanks team postcard, featuring a 19yo Hank Gowdy in the front row

Finally knocked off last HOF ...................

It only took me almost two years of collecting this set to realize Carey was his rookie card .........

Sitting at 197 ......


Fun, fun, Scott

[Yoda]

And his RC, no less. Well done. Hooper is a real tough one. Love to see yours.

Nice job Scott. 197 T207 cards in less than two years is impressive. I think anything over 120 or so gets really tough to come by.

I have always liked the way the T207 artist(s) depicted wavy hair on many of the cards, including Carey's. Bresnahan comes to mind as another HOF with prominent wavy locks.

Not to high-jack a thread ...... ....... but by request .....

Two great examples of why, imo, T207s are a great set: Classic fielding poses, and some GREAT portraits ..................

Based on design, Hooper obviously comes with an Anon.3 back. That would be a card I'd like to have (one day ) as I am trying to get as many Recruit Anon.3s as possible.

Fun, fun, Scott

[GregZakwin]

Plus one just past pre-war

[sbfinley]

Thanks to Hake's for great customer service and fast shipping!

I believe Hooper also comes with a Red Hindu back.

[itjclarke]

Some fun items at Hakes. I don't always keep track of their auctions, but glad I knew about this one. Absolutely psyched about the Hubbell. It's been on my wish list for years.

1921 Exhibits Jesse Haines signed.jpg

[Casey2296]

Love the Hubbell Ian, congrats on the pick ups.

Not sure what back you're referring to, John. Hooper's now known with 5 backs, with 1 other possible:

Recruit Fac 240
Recruit Fac 606
Napoleon
Anon, Fac 3
blank

He could also be found with a brown-ink back, but that's unconfirmed at the present.

Here's the 5 known backs - the blank back images are from a recent CleanSweep auction - it is not my card.
