August pickups

[Howe’s Hunter]

Returned to work after several days out of town and found a package from Wonkaticket in my chair.



Thanks, John, for reuniting Fielder with the others. Nine Hindus, 21 Old Mill and a lot of Piedmonts.

Sunday night, I get a call from my friend. He's at a guy's house and he tells me the guy has a sick baseball card collection. I'm thinking he's got mid-1990s Upper Deck or something. The guy says he's got some Wagner cards. I was like, sure buddy. Maybe 1992 Conlons or something. But then he says the magic word.... "Dockman". He also had a beater E95 Wags. I picked them both up, and had them graded tonight on-site at the White Plains show. I am VERY happy with these.

How often does your friend call you to tell you about a couple of Wagners he found??!!

That Dockman Wagner is frickin' beautiful! Nice card!

Not really a pickup in the traditional sense but I recreated the original collage which I picked up a few months ago. The external 'boxed' players were beyond recognition but the cutouts came from the N172 OJ's. Most of the player poses are identical with a few exceptions and I even included the name cards. Each player was on the 1888 Baltimore B.B. Club except for Quinn who played for them in 1889. This was a fun project especially given the fact that the original was beyond restoration. I will likely make a double sided frame to showcase the original and the new one together. I think the last time I put together a collage was about 30 years ago

Both fresh from SGC, the McGlynn I got from dog*dirt in a trade.

Interesting Crawford image

Very nice Crawford, I believe that one is quite rare, no?
