February Pickups

[LKeeler]

Thanks guys!

This BVG 2.5 (which was crease free and I believed worthy of a 3-3.5) became an SGC 50 this week! It's been a really good month.

Great card! Talk about a bump!

Another Piedmont 350, but with a WST on reverse as well as a slight double back, top-bottom. Liberated from an SGC 45 holster!

I know right? I did crack it out before sending it in because I thought it was under graded, but I never expected SGC 50. In related news, the card is no longer for sale...I offered it in B/S/T a while back but didn't get any bites.

Nice Cobb Bat Off!

Thrilled to add this scarce underrated early Ruth to my collection. Trade with board member.

Thanks Erick! Nice Ruth as well...I honestly don't think I've ever laid eyes on that card. What a find!

Thanks, an affordable copy has been high on my want list for years. I think it is one of the nicest looking early Ruth's to show him on the Yankees, as a hitter and in pinstripes. It shows him in the white pinstriped hat that was used in 1921 too when Ruth had the best ever year in baseball history.

This CJ looks a lot better than just AUT - assuming nothing is wrong with the back. Am I the only one that feels that way?

[bcbgcbrcb]

It's trimmed, Raymond.

[MVSNYC]

Yes, lower right corner flares out on the bottom edge.

Got my very 1st Cobb last night and so happy to share my excitement with Sean & you guys. like i told Sean, i wanted one that was presentable and i got thos unique piece on top of all things and its ungraded.
Its the print oddity, as Sean said over-sized.

[btcarfagno]

You got that Cobb at a really good price as well. Congrats.

I picked up this Pinkerton coupon last night.

Nice pick up I was debating on bidding on that one last night but decided against it. Glad that you got it!

That miscut Shipke may prove to be at the top of a sheet since there's no two/double name showing.

First vintage pick-up in quite some time. I don't have a very large collection, but for some reason this is my third Griffith w/bat and second with the "missing 'i' from Cincinnati." My scanner isn't that great to begin with, but the new PSA holders seem to come out extra blurry when I scan them.

Nice Radebaugh. Seems to come up a little less frequent than other Series 1 cards. Good score.

Thanks guys. I am thrilled by all means.
I might be catching this pre-war bug that you guys have, it makes me more enthusied to go after the 'green' Cobb next, as i was wanting to get that one first. I may go for the 4 Cobb run, while keeping the love of my RC run.

Came in the mail today. I got 3 cards to add to my epdg collection.

But this has to be one of the absolutely sexiest SGC 20's in the history of ever. Black marker and all. I have a new favorite card in my collection.

I'm glad that your first Cobb is a special one. Get the Green one, and if you decide to go for the others, let me know.

Well, here is the completion of my February pickups. Miller Huggins is part of my March search, but when I saw the card I couldn't pass it up. I was hoping it wouldn't show up until Monday . Thanks to the board members who helped out with 2 of these cards to continue my Cincinnati team sets!!

T205 Dick Hoblitzell Cincinnati after 2nd 1908



T206 Miller Huggins Portrait Cycle 350



T207 Art Phelan Broadleaf

Happy to add this beauty via eBay... another of the cards I'd have probably never discovered without N54.

[freakhappy]

Nice pickup, Ian. You are right...I'd hate to think about where I'd be without net54. I would be collecting shiny stuff only

[canjond]

Two end-of-month pick-ups.

I was an underbidder on the Kelly, congrats...great card!
