Love of the Game Wins

[ValKehl]

I won these 3 cards for my type collection. Also, I am working on a back run for this particular Jennings pose with the orange background. And, I am very slowly working on a collection of Eppa Rixey cards, because we have the same alma mater (UVA, which, BTW, won the 2015 CWS!). I love it when I am able to acquire a card that fits two of my collecting focuses.

I got two nice strip cards, Urban Shocker (W501) and Gehrig (W502), and one of the 1929 Exhibit cards Star Picture Stamps (Pink).

Looked long and hard at the Delong set but wasn't happy with the overall condition of many cards. Very cool set though. Wanted the Ruth profile Exhibits but fell asleep. Ditto for the Earl Averill.

Great selection of stuff. Could be wrong but didn't see tremendous demand for a lot of the Tigers collection.

Whoever got the LaJoie got a pretty good deal.

Little impulse buy when other things didn't pan out. Building back some of my BF3's I sold years ago.....................

Pete, good question. Being a great procrastinator, I've yet to do the research I've been intending to do. I decided to do this back run when I won the T216 Virginia Extra in last year's Heritage auction of Leon's type collection. I already had this Jennings pose for my T216 Kotton, T216 Mino, and Tango Eggs type cards. And, orange has always been one of my favorite colors. Since deciding to do this back run, I've picked up an E92 Dockman and an E92 Croft's Candy (blue back). I know there are more T216 Kottons and E92s to be acquired, and some other E cards as well. If anyone happens to have this back combos info, or knows where I can readily obtain it, kindly LMK.
