Mike - Love, love, LOVE the Simmons box. Crazy beautiful condition. Congrats!
It's on my wantlist. Someday. Hopefully, I can snare one with that eye-appeal. Wow! My first missed National in 5-years. I've had the shakes all weekend. ![]() Thanks for posting your pics, Gents. Last edited by CobbvLajoie1910; 08-04-2013 at 05:57 AM. |

A very simple answer to that is I had the text taken off my phone so no more texting! If you want me you must call me and talk to me like old times!! Ah great to be textless!!! ![]() ![]()

Nice pickups everyone! Lots of terrific rarities...
I thought it might be fun to post by favorite inexpensive purchase at The National. Flipping through a binder (within the last 15 minutes on the convention floor), I found this cool 1910 Base Ball mini-scrapbook for $15. The hobbyist meticulously glued every box score plus many photos of the 1910 base ball season from April through the end of May in this hard bound book. All 1910 opening day games pitched by the likes of Matty, 3 Finger Brown, Deacon Phillipe, Cy Young and Chief Bender were in there. Of note, the 1st game ever at the new ball park in Cleveland (League Park), including a nice write up, was present. Both of the no-hitters from the 1910 season (Addie Joss and Chief Bender) both made it into the scrapbook as well. In between some of the pages were perhaps 20-30 period magazine photo clippings of many stars of the era including Cy Young, Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Tinker and Evers, etc., etc. I carefully looked through the scrapbook on my flight home. Very cool! Last edited by Scott Garner; 08-05-2013 at 03:20 AM. |

I don't really have any pick-ups from Chicago - save a common, raw T206 for business card purposes - but I just wanted to mention that it was GREAT meeting and hanging out with some of you fellas. People like Brock, Rhys, Rhett, Scott F, Scott G, David McD, Brian MacD, Andrew W, Rob K, Brandon (and Jadyn), Paul R, Jeff R, Jon F, Leon, Lymon, Chris, Ryan, Al and the like really made this trip what it always ends up being: my absolute favorite weekend of the year.
And of course, Ben and Phil, my wonderful and awful roommates - y'all kill me. The dinner, as per usual, was wonderful. A big thanks to Leon for putting it on and dealing with all of the drunkenness. Thank the lord I got my chicken fingers. I'll be looking forward to next year in Cleveland. Maybe I can even convince Dean to set up a friggin' booth for once! Graig

Ben,
A lot was the wrong term, I should have said that it was not uncommon for a photographer to not put his stamp on the back of his photos. I have been researching my cousin's Ruth collection, and I have found 8 to 10 press photos, without photographer stamps, but matched negatives that are in the VanOeyen collection in the Western Reserve Historical Society. The only stamp on the back is Cleveland Press with date. No article, but I have found success locating newspaper articles, which include the photos. Bob, Great photos, that Buck Weaver is special, along with that close up on Gehrig.
