January Pickup Thread

I rarely post but wanted to thank Kris Sweckard for selling me what I believe to be the first image of Jack Chesbro in 1897 with the Richmond Bluebirds. There is another solo cabinet of him while there, but this one is definitively from his 1st year. Also pictured is a young Kid Elberfeld.

Outstanding cabinet!

Please store my screen name in case you ever wanted to sell that beauty. A friend of mine has a cabinet photo of Chesbro in the Richmond uniform. It’s my holy grail as a Richmond collector.

That would be a great cabinet without those guys in it. Superb pickup!

Thanks Jay. The corners are definitely a 3 but the color and portrait look great in hand.

Outstanding acquisition! Well done!

Nice cards, all.

Was able to add Krause Omaha... bringing me to 165/185 for T213-2...

Was able to pick this one up from a fellow Board member. As a Cubs fan from Indiana, it is hard to beat!

Rob and Andy, awesome job picking up cards that you both needed. I needed a HOF’er with the Red Cross back, there was one available and I took it.

Happy to add this to the Old Mill I picked up recently.

Congrats on bringing that finish line into sight...

Thanks Chuck! Nice card, I had my eye on that one too!

[RCMcKenzie]

Thanks Chuck and Steve. That T215-2 McGraw is great. The Indy Brewing Brown is also a nice one. I'm looking at my T213-2 list and I still have some tough cards left. GL in the upcoming auctions, y'all.
