Here are the 4 1911 Obaks and the 2 1910 Obaks I picked up of eBay last week from one seller. My biggest night ever on eBay. The Jack Fournier 1910 Obak has a "Smoke Obak" back and the Hugh Smith has a "Always A Pleasure" back, which is my 4th back for his 1910 Obak.

Just got around to scanning these.
1. The Duffy from ebay. Sorely undergraded due to a speck of paper loss on the back and a small scuff by the sock. For what I paid, I'll take it!
2. The Nee from Joe's Vintage Auction last week. Paid on Wed., received on Sat. No buyers premium & $3 for postage. Now THAT'S how to run an auction! Also way undergraded IMO, again a tiny nick in the back. About as nice a centering for a minor leaguer as I've seen.
3. The Mitchell from David B Vintage. Just a pencil mark on the back for the low grade (no creases, nice corners). Just wanted a Zeenut type card. Cool old car in the background and a full front jersey view.

Nice pickup on the Zeenut Mitchell...it is a cool, inexpensive alternative to the Waner Zeenut card that has the old Ford in the background.

Thanks to Jay Miller now I have 21 N172's.

I figure I can catch up to Jay in no time after all they say after your first 21 the next few thousand come pretty easy.

Cheers,

John

That's the nicest Griffith I've ever seen! Probably nine out of ten Griffiths have faded images,and the tenth would usually be just acceptable... What an amazing card, I don't think we'll see another like it.

I know I sound like a broken record, but that Griffith is amazing, what a nice example of a tougher HOFer. You have a nice start on an N172 HOF run.

I have never seen that T205 John Nee before. How did a random player get such a beautiful card?! The background on it is stunning.

The Zeenut from David B Vintage (ebay), the Joss from John (myachelydra) here. Love the photo on the Colgan's, what an awesome set, wish I could afford more of them!

Coigans have great portrait photos (mostly Horner) and are a great value in our space, imo. Nice pick up...
