I backed off of the Hindu at $80. Glad you got it.

Jerry - great colors and condition on that Chance.

Greg - awesome Cobb.

Brian - I dig the Ruth. What is that issue?

Bryan,

Thank you. The Ruth is from the 1923 V100 Willards Chocolates.

I recently bought a beautifully framed October 10 1910 The Cleveland Leader newspaper highlighting Lajoie beating out Cobb for the batting title in 1910. There was a book written about this titled The Chalmers Race, which I just picked up also. I already had a green Cobb so I had to get a Lajoie portrait to go with.
This portrait ranks up there with the WaJo portrait IMHO; but you have to find the right one...without lipstick.

1936 Goudey Premium.
And a fellow Net54 member just helped me to fill my R312 DiMaggio hole...AND I just made a deal for a Joe D. owned bat from the old timers game in 1971.
My February has been EPIC for my DiMaggio collection!!!!!!!

On a related note, I hope my girlfriend doesn't read these threads. Because I am not sure my DiMaggio bat will look quite as good on the doghouse wall.

Great CJ Cobb, Greg. Congrats!
