Dave, did you buy that low-grade one off me about 11 years ago? I bought a lot of three low grade cards to get a Corcoran and a Hogan like that was in the group. Thought I sold it to someone with the same last name

3 OJ's in the collection....

Yes, Im pretty sure it was you who I bought it from. Thank you for helping me with it. I have about 35-40 cards with different cards from all different sets and sports with people named Hogan. A few even have their first name as Hogan.

Nice lot, Kenny!

Even Authentic, OJ's can look great if the picture is nice. On the other hand, pink tint ones never look good but for some subjects, you have to settle for them

Unless they do look good



You've got some nice cards, John. As does everyone else, great stuff!

[z28jd]

Thanks Matt. That barely qualifies as a pink tint Most don't have pictures that nice. I think I have about three of them total, that's enough for me. I'll get a chance to scan some more OJ's on Monday, so this thread will live at least another three days. For now, here is an article I wrote back in April, using my Old Judge cards to help tell the story

Cool story John, thanks for sharing that history.

John - great Schmelz OJ! That is a tough one to find...

Thanks Chris. Yes, he is very difficult to find. The only other one I remember seeing for sale was much more expensive and had a badly faded photo. Like I said up top, I try to avoid the pink tint OJ's but sometimes you have to make exceptions or you may give up your only chance to get a player/mgr for a long time.

I passed on the Madden/leaning on rock pose at the 2003 National, regretted it immediately and haven't found another one since.

I would love to see a red Red Ehret
