Don't rain on my parade, Franklin. It been a lifelong dream to start the monthly pickup tread, and I got up at 5 in the morning, praying I would be first.

I haven't had authentic White Castle in years!!!

[btcarfagno]

Ah yes. White Castle's rat burgers give the term "sliders" a whole new, and rather disgusting, meaning.

I think I am about to hurl. The thought or smell of Whitecastle sliders give me that post drinking hangover feeling. I remember one time when my wife was in the hospital in St. Louis I picked some up to cheer her up and about gagged from the greasy smell of "Sliders". We still laugh abour it but to this day, no sliders for me.

More progress close to 50% completion.

FINALLY got a Leach portrait spent a bit on it but I love it.

FINALLY got my clutches on Mr. Titus

[rocarroll]

I can see why you were in such a rush to start the thread. Nice pick ups

Well, after about ten years in the wilderness, not exactly like John the Baptist, and minus a London house and a wife, I, John Spencer, have returned to the US, where I am now living in Stuart, Fl on the East Coast. And what better way to start building a new life than to re-embrace my first true obsession - old baseball cards. The first order of business was to form, out of the ashes of Full Count (some might remember that fine old firm,) a new LLC, Past Ball Vintage Cards, and the second was to join this august forum. Leon and I go back away.
In keeping with the thread, although my pick up was September, I was thrilled to get in Leon's auction both E92 Harry Davis Croft Candy Red and Blue. Wow.
Nice to be back. Yoda

Bud Teachout was a good friend's grandfather, and I have purchased a few cards for him over the past few years. This is his earliest card (one that I already had, but wanted to keep for myself, ha)! Now, we both have one! Thanks, Rhett. Pretty sure I purchased my other example from you, too.

Good to have you back John! The old Full Count board was one of the major things that really got me back into vintage cards many years ago.

[T206Collector]

It's been a good week for signed T206 pickups! Here's my latest -- with an Old Mill back, which may be the only one of its kind. Somewhat of an upgrade for my other one, which will probably make the rounds on the B/S/T or ebay or something in the coming days or weeks.

[rocarroll]

Picked up this Tolstoi from a forum member.

Welcome back aboard, John! I loved hanging out on the old Full Count board the same way I like hanging out here. Both you and Mike enabled my prewar card habit although Mike was the only one who sold me an Old Judge, my true addiction! : )
