...just received the hand-lettered 1932 photo ( taken by 'Schoolboy' Rowe's 'roomate' at Spring training at Tiger Field in Lakeland , Florida ( they were still there as of this past Spring )----it's a very very young Eldon Auker who is with one hand holding his rat terrier puppy and with his other pulling close " His Luck-Charm Tom Mix "

...I collect just about anything that's thirties Tigers but this is the oddest item I've found so far...fountain pen was used for the printing on the front; on the reverse , written in cursive pencil is :
Big Six Auker
His dog & good
luck charm
Tom Mix

Thanks, everyone. I'm really excited to have worked out a deal for it, and the gentleman that I got it from couldn't be a nicer guy.

...and Val, I do pick up "ordinary" (is anything here ordinary?) vintage cards...some of my favorites are beaters with holes in them!

Picked up this nice tall diamond cut Eddie Phelps T206 because it had the one color background compared to the more common two color background.

I have 10 more coming back from SGC, then I would need about 40 more to complete the confirmed run.
