Recent REA pick ups. Was finally able to add an M. Brown Piedmont with some eye appeal.

Completed the E91-A American Caramel catcher run with this recent purchase of the Osee Schreckengost (Ossee Schrecongost.)

Now have all three of the catcher poses used in three E91A, E91B, and E91C sets. The poses in the E91A set actually resemble Roger Bresnahan, Johnny Kling, and Osee Schreckengost (Ossee Schrecongost.)

Congrats on the completion. And faces for those three catchers in the E91A set do look like the players. Here are some of my comparison scans. Hopefully you all can see the facial similarities. I believe the E91 artists utilized a reversed image of the photo seen on the Fan Craze to create the Schreckengost E91 card.

Finally nabbed the Pop 1 Carl Braun signed 1961 Fleer card to complete the only PSA/DNA 1961 Fleer Basketball Set in existence!

Been a minute since I’ve had a pickup worth sharing. Maybe Kuhn wouldn’t have been a lifetime .205 hitter if he had been wearing glasses?

[RayBShotz]

Picked this up at the Northeast Sportscard Expo in Portland ME on Saturday.

[Rhotchkiss]

Not baseball, but it was from Leland’s, so…..

As an aside, I love that sports auctions are carrying more and more entertainment, historical, etc items.

PS- Phil, I agree, that is a stunning Jennings. Congrats

[molenick]

A few recent purchases. No rhyme or reason really...just cards that caught my eye where the prices were in my budget. There were plenty of nice type cards cards in recent auction that went for more than I wanted to pay.

[OhioLawyerF5]

Nothing too special, but I just added this one to my collection of hall of famers with some connection to the Reds. I only collect them if they are in a Reds uniform on the card, so some don't have any Reds cards. But Griffith hits that sweet spot as he played for the Reds in 1909 and managed them from 1909-1911, and lots of cards where made in that period. He is such a significant figure in the history of the major leagues, and I'm happy to add it to the PC.

[LuckyLarry]

todays mail brought these cards to my doorstep. Including the last 1935 National Chicle Football card I needed to complete my set! #32 Swede Johnson (Green Bay Packers).

Brian - Sweet Burgess-Nash!

[B O'Brien]

A couple things to round out the T206’s. Trying to add a little variety when I can’t find I really need. This is my first ever T227, as well.
Some fun cards on the board this month!

Enjoy,
Bob

A great day. My youngest great nephew's birthday and a second pickup.

[glchen]

This is why I still scour ebay daily. Picked up the rare white version of this postcard to go with the standard sepia one. Was there another version of this white postcard, perhaps with a blank back?

Gary- Nice Ruth postcard. I believe that is a "Hurwitz" PC. If you search Net54 for Hurwitz you'll find an interesting thread or two.

[brianp-beme]

I have always liked the look of a vibrantly colored example of Billy Herman's 1933 Goudey...nice pickup!

Hi Jeremy, thanks for this info! Looks like I won Frank's postcard also.

[Tim Kindler]

Thank you to Trent - ClementeFanOh - fellow board member - who worked out this successful trade with me. Trent is a fellow board member that is trustworthy to work with. Not a high dollar trade by any means, but one in which was fair and very satisfactory to both of us to fill needs/wants in our current collections.
Thanks Trent!

Rob, just wanted to echo the amazement of others on your Cobb Green Background E98!

[ajjohnsonsoxfan]

Excited about adding this super tough HOF to the collection!

[Casey2296]

Fantastic AJ, congrats.

[ullmandds]

Congrats aj...beauty! And everyone else!

Just thought I'd show off some of my cards so I uploaded my Obak Victoria Bees cards to a image hosting site.
If anyone is interested in viewing my team set the link and Pw is below.

Psyched to add this one to my collection. Edited to remove RC comments. Thanks for the heads up.
Uncle Robbie looks just great in hand!

AJ now that’s a show stopping card
His 1915 cj is also a stunning card too

[Brian]

Giant postcard version. Largest PC I have (lol).

Why would this be considered a rookie card?

It is his first card as a manager but Wilbert Robinson had cards issued in several sets before 1916, including (but not limited to): N690 (as a two-player card), N172 (five poses), N142, and N300. So I don't think this is his rookie card (but I do like the card).

After years (probably decades) of searching, I'm real excited to finally pick up this one -- the only Hall of Famer in a very rare set.
