[shernan30]

Great looking Bodie Brian!!

Awesome Matty other Brian!!

Here are my two wins from last night:

T212 Type 1 Hitt (my first Obak!!)
Roy Hitt was a member of the 1908 Columbus Senators



T207 Lot (Only need the McLean, the other three are available)

[Piratedogcardshows]

Nice Series 4 cards T Bob. Some toughies in that group.

[asphaltman]

Lost out on a few of the Zeenut lots I was looking at. My lone pickup - good addition for a type card happy to get it

[effe]

Picked this one up at a flea market yesterday.

[Brian Van Horn]

John,

Wow!

[yanksfan09]

That's crazy! Beautiful Rickey!

I love finding diamonds in the rough, so to speak. Bought a lot from Saco Auctions a couple of weeks ago, and was thrilled to find this gorgeous Dougherty didn't have any hidden creases or other maladies (SGC confirmed that with its grade this weekend).



And the diverse group from whence it came:

[Enfuego]

Cool pickups for October so far. I hope I can show off some stuff I pick up soon.

My 3rd Waddell Hindu

[cardsfan73]

Love that Waddell card! I have the Waddell throwing card in my St. Louis Collection but still need to pick up the portrait version. Great card!

Scott

[cardsfan73]

Latest addition to my St. Louis Collection. I am up to 16 T206 Cardinals/Browns cards now, only 24 more to go... But I seriously doubt I'll ever get my hands on a Ray Demmitt or Bill OHara.

[VoodooChild]

Here's another toughie for my Pittsburgh Type Collection (hopefully). I know Lindstrom played for the Pirates in 1933, but I can't tell if this photo is of him wearing a Pirates uniform. Does anybody know?

Lots of raws thanks to Scottie, including my first ever Sov Green Apple back !!!!

Hope to have these and a bunch more in hand within the next 10 days to two weeks. MOST of them will be available for sale. I will also be putting some up to a major auction house in the very near future.

This was the Profiles In History Glass Plate Negatives lot from their last auction. Lots of nice stuff including 17 Babe Ruths, 4 Walter Johnson, Lou Gehrig, Honus Wagner, 3 Christy Mathewsons (one signing a baseball!!!), Frank Baker, etc.

You can certainly inquire about pricing. Many are known to be Bain photos.

Awesome stuff!

[JustinD]

That Gehrig photo really shocks me.

Not only is it incredible, but in a time where weight training was incomprehensible and most of the players lifted nothing but beers and lit cigars (talking to svelte Ruth there, lol) that guy is a bear compared to everyone.

Mr. Wagner wishes to say hello. He asks that you take a gander at his popeye like arms and reconsider your position.

This glass plate negative is part of the collection and will NOT be available for sale.

Lol.

I look at those photos and think how much my high school baseball coach would have yelled if I choked that high on a bat at the plate. Times sure do change.

If I put up stats like Wagner I guess I might have got a pass.

Will most likely never afford the "Chicago on shirt - Hands on Knees" Tinker - but one with the faded "Chicago" will do (usually found on Sweet Cap. 150's from what I've seen.)

There's no such thing as a "Chicago on shirt- Hands on Knees" Tinker variation...I think you're thinking of the Mordecai Brown version.

I believe there is a variation with "Chicago" erased, and some of "Chicago" is visible.

[Iwantmorecards77]

Sorry for the confusion, Nast Nati. I meant the printing error/freak that has both "Cubs" and the partial "Chicago" on his shirt:

Great card. There can't be too many issues that feature both Ruth and Gehrig.

[The Nasty Nati]

Wow interesting, I forgot about that freak.
