September Pickups

Sick Cobb!

Picked these up last night and tonight. Although I've completed the C46 set, the last card I got was Corcoran so I couldn't resist buying another example of the card I waited 2 years for. The other 2 C46s went for peanuts so I picked them up. Although I sold my E90-1 set, I still pick up a few of the ones I really liked. This one is authentic but nice eye appeal.

Well, I finally got a Zach Wheat signed T206, gave up some cards that were great, but overall, this fits my collection much better. Also, I picked up this great W514 Edd Rousch, it'll have to do since he doesn't have a T206

painful to see that sticker on the card.

It is, but oh well, still a sweet card. I'm guessing the original owner sent it in to get it non-slab, and then someone else got it later to get it slabbed...

Huge thanks to Mike for working with me on acquiring these. Stoked.

When I bought the Rousch at a show, it came with the sticker on the back. So I walked it over to the SGC table. Because the sticker had the cert number there was only the cost to encapsulate it (~$10) to get the JSA cert on the flip. A real no brainer. Whoever decided to go with the sticker on the back in the first instance, I have no idea. Certainly wasn't my idea.

I think grading is good for the hobby overall. When I see a sticker on a card or a photo I puke. Still a very neat card though....congrats on that!!

That's what I assumed, I knew you wouldn't dare to do that. Wonder if it could get lightly soaked and removed...but I don't wanna break it out, front is where it matters on this card.

Agreed!

Great card, lousy sticker. What would be so tough about taking a picture of the card and putting it on an accompanying COA letter?
