Favorite pick up(s) of 2018 Show 'em

Think this is my favorite this year. Enjoy the issue, the player, the pose, the condition, big fan of B&W in general, and loved that it's the "strike" rather than the "hit" card.

With a total pop graded by PSA and SGC standing at 7.... I’m fortunate to own it. And it is without a doubt the most beautifully done postcard I’ve owned.

Someone was kind enough years ago to likely staple it into a scrapbook which causes the grade to be lower, but it’s better than tape or glue and doesn’t take away from the image, and likely helped preserve the image, corners, etc. I look at this card and can’t believe it’s about 110 years old. I only took ownership a few weeks ago and it felt like a great way to close out the year.

Congrats everyone on your favorite pickups for 2018 and I hope 2019 will be kind to us all as well!

Finally found a decent yellow Gehrig that had the combination of eye-appeal and centering I was looking for...

It was a great year. Can't decide between Steinfeldt and Cravath for top pickup of the year.
