Wondering if one will hit me up here in Canada....I'm definitely a bidder this year

[wonkaticket]

I really like the recipe section this time. Dean’s Special Chicken Salad looks really good but not sure about the addition of celery and grapes…

This years also seems smaller than last years....

[Tcards-Please]

Hopefully mine will arrive here in northern Virginia today.

The Boston Garter interactive "pop-up book" pages, though technically and artistically impressive, were a little disturbing.

I'm in Massachusetts and received mine today. It is incredible as always. If I move it three or four times today I won't have to work out tonight!

Got an email from my doorman that a very heavy package came from Benchmark Printing...I assume this is Rob's printer?

If so...cool! Thanks Rob!

Hope will receive mine this week.....

[bigtrain]

Just got my catalog today. Luckily I have been working out recently so I was able to carry it in from the mailbox. I live in a town adjacent to Watchung, NJ but since the catalog is shipped from Schenectady, I don't get it any sooner. Amazing auction and I am sure the prices realized will also be amazing.

[markf31]

Mine arrived moments ago. Love flipping through the REA. I did get a kick out of the fact the catalog is placed inside a UPS shipping bag prior to being placed inside a USPS flat rate box.

I do not get one you can send me yours and I promise not to complain.

Call REA and they will send you one free of charge, no questions asked.

[brob28]

The anticipation is killing me, hope mine's there when I get home from work!

Thanks Leon I will do just that. I love to look at these catalogs and dream with my eyes wide open.

[blackandgold]

Still waiting in PA. Can't wait to get it !

[Big Six]

The catalog is awesome as usual...there's even a gatefold of The Bruce's Boston Garter uncut sheet...just amazing!!!

[Tcards-Please]

Anyone in VA receive theirs? Word must be getting around at how much it weighs. Must be a shortage of back braces and hand trucks for the postal workers.

When I spoke to my wife before leaving the office she said there was a box too heavy for her to bring upstairs.

That's when I knew.

Same here, Jim. I spot so many items in the catalog that escaped my eye when first viewing online...I love paging thru the "book".

[sycks22]

Nothing yet here in NC. I feel bad for the driver who has to lug that thing up 3 flights to bring me mine.

[GoldenAge50s]

It cracks me up that every year now we have a 100-200 post thread on who did or didn't get a catalog and if you got one, what day it arrived!

Isn't this type of thing that Twitter and Facebook are all about? (I don't know because I don't Tweet and I don't Face!)

PS: Mine arrived Wed @ 3:19 PM!

[g_vezina_c55]

Just got my catalog by UPS.
I am in Canada

Well Fred, I'm twiddling and tweeting at the same time, but still no catalog.
I agree though that this is one of the most informative threads of the year.

[Tcards-Please]

Don't know why, but they sent me two? I'm not going to complain as I now have one for the home and one for the office.

Now if only I had a rare Canadian coin to sell

Well, gotta go window shop.

I would still like to know who/how Net54baseball is being tweeted? My wife follows us on Twitter. I didn't even know we had a tweet?

[tiger8mush]

i read thru mine over the past two days, marked down what interested me, and tossed the book in the recycling bin in my house and put the bin near the door so I'd remember to empty the bin into the larger recyling bin outside in the morning.

Well, on the way out the door for school this morning, my 6 yr old saw the book and freaked out that I was going to toss it. He loves to keep the auction catalogs and thumb thru them. It was entertaining watching him lug the catalog up the stairs to put in his bedroom

[Cardboard Junkie]

I usually get 2.......nothing on The Big Island yetDave

[Jlighter]

Christmas has come early.

Or late, depending which way you look at it.

[npa589]

Get this...

My wife gets upset with me when I receive many of the catalogs in the mail and go to throw them away in a week. She says "These are gorgeous, how can you throw them away!"

We still have a couple recent SCP catalogs because she refused to let me throw it away.

I also kept the Dreier Legendary one that had pictures of the E107 set. That's just fun to look through. If you cut out each page, hole punch the pages, put them in a binder, then have a few long islands, you may actually feel like you own them when flipping through.

Got mine today!
No TV or research tonight---just this fabulous REA.
all the best,

[Goodsport40]

Nothing down South in Nashville yet! Doh!

[jcmtiger]

Received catalog in Michigan today.

Joe

[e107collector]

Not mine Maybe tomorrow!!

[Rob D.]

Odd that none have popped up on the B/S/T.

[GoldenAge50s]

For those keeping track, I am now all the way up to Page 20 & reading about the 1916 Ware Babe Ruth card.

It says it is an extremely attractive & outstanding example, bright & clean, bold & crisp, but I don't know if I believe them.

What should I do now?

Hey Fred
You (and all board members) should be on page 2 and have a long way to go on it. You can change the number of posts per page by doing this below, it will greatly improve your experience on the board....


Look on the left – it says User CP .. click on it.
The 3rd little box under User CP, in that column says “Settings and Options”
The 4th set of words down says Edit options… click on it,
The 3rd big box is Thread Display options
There is a box that says “Show xx"posts per page” change it to 80 then save

Really, everyone should do those things if they want to turn fewer pages on the board.

[jgmp123]

Just got mine today and man...some pretty amazing stuff crammed in this thing!!!

It appears as though new threads get tweeted here: https://twitter.com/Net54Baseball

This is probably something you can mess with in the Admin Control Panel.

Mine arrived here in N. Va YESTERDAY. Well Brahma, guess it takes a bit longer for mail to reach the hinterlands of Centerville.

Good news, after years of being in the habit of lifting with my legs instead of my back, it would appear that I have successfully avoided lumbar damage.

[frankbmd]

Leon,

I think Fred is on page 20 (Lot #9) in the REA catalog. Some of us read things other than Net54 threads.

So it's automatic?

You are probably correct Frank. That being said I have already had one long time member thank me for posting that. It really is important if you want a better experience on the board.

Fully agree with the benefit of the 80 posts per page. It's changed my life.

Just received mine yesterday along with my new Brewers jersey I ordered. I was on cloud 9 all night. Was so excited my wife asked if I needed some "alone" time.
