Nice Rob...you have both his stamp w/address AND his writing on a card, a combo which I have not seen before.

Does anyone recognize the writing on the back of this W575-1?

Here's one I like, wonder if PSA would grade it.

Thanks, Brian, I bought it from Lew Lipset on eBay about 15 years ago, so, at least, 2 hobby pioneers owned it. Here's a Carter collection card I picked up tonight. He had a really nice, high-grade collection.

Nice pick up Rob. It's fun to grab little gems like that in a sea of turmoil that is a pwcc auction.

Thanks, Phil, that Nagy card you posted is really neat. Here are 2 more Nagy's that he got from Burdick...

I love that stuff. I'm such a fan of history, those that came before us and the remnants that they left behind. I was in the music business for 25 years (jazz & blues) and loved tracing musical influences from slave hollers to present day. When I did my E98 orphan project I discovered and reunited two cards that were together sometime in the past based on a handwritten "L" at the top of the cards.

They can keep their trimmed gem mint 10's, I'll take deep dirty history any day.

From the Barry Halper Sothebys auction, some unique items. The Matthewson bottle is part of a six bottle NY Giants set. The charms were made by boosters for Fred Clarke following the first world series and for McGraw in 1905. Some of my favorite items in my collection.

Beautiful items, no matter whose collection they were from.
