March pick-up thread

[BabyRuth]

Got a nice package back from SGC, and also a few recent raw pickups including the holy grail of Wacky Pack collecting - the 1967 #21 Jolly Mean Giant!!!!

New type for me. Carrigan is the only catcher in the set, so I'm one and done!

Interesting enough, it came from a Maine dealer who had a variety of Carrigan cards. Carrigan was from Lewiston, Maine. In now resides in my Maine collection.

I'm in love with buying these Walter Johnson animal pics. Definitely not going to retire on them in 10 years but something you don't see every day 😆

It looks like Walter is texting while feeding his roosters.

Pushing the pre-war envelope but I think Big Six qualifies. Fun little pick-up.

Great centering and contrast on that Collins-McCarthy.

This one really caught my eye at Heritage due to its deep color and just overall crispness for the grade. Also at last completes the quartet.

I was wondering were this ended up. I saw it on ebay and was debating grabbing it but it sold before I could make up my mind. Glad it ended up with some one else on net54! Congrats on the pick up!

Hi Jim

I’m not familiar with that “Rinky Dink” stamp Ruth.... is there a set called Rinkey Dink out there?

The reason I ask is that my father played semi pro baseball back in the late 40’s in mid state coastal Maine for a team called the “East Side Rinky Dinks” and I’d love to add a Rinky Dink card if any HOFer to my collection as a tip to him

Any info on that set would be greatly appreciated!

Jim- always cool to see a card I once owned (W574 Grove) showing up again on Net54...guess that's one advantage to having them graded.

Cool group of additions...congrats!
