Nice Gehrig!
And I love these pickup threads. I only collect certain players I liked back in the day, so I'm not a collector of anything pre war, or even 50's - 60's for that matter. Maybe one day. But for now, love the pics of the pickups

Picked this up from Rob at the Seattle show today. Pinholes + back damage + no creases across the card = my type of card.

And my loupe arrived yesterday; amazing to see an image broken down into dots of colored ink.

Finally picked up my first Collins-McCarthy, and as per usual had to be centered and swell pose.

Tony, those Walsh ports are both beautiful.

Jeff, you never cease to inspire with your pickups. Ever since looking at your collection, I've jut fallen in love with postcards and type photos. I need to read up on David Cycleback's writings on photo authentication, but then I'm going to start looking to incorporate some of those pieces into my collection.

Ruben, I think that qualifies as a nice one! My all-time favorite Gehrig. I will own it sometime this year, though it won't be that nice. Kudos on a great addition!!

November might be a cold month, but this thread is definitely warming up. I will try to temper my enthusiasm, but congrats guys on some great pieces.
