June 2011 Pickup Thread

[Tom S.]

Some recent additions to the T206 team master set that I hope to accomplish....the Davis was found last weekend at the monthly Cincinnati show, and the Duffy cards were eBay purchases.

[Big Six]

also my first strip card!

Just back from Beckett..............

[abothebear]

[Robextend]

Got back a 48 card sub from SGC, not true pickups, but here are a couple highlights:

[nolemmings]

This W573 has the widest side borders I've ever seen, by far, which made me "gotta have it".

My scanner's iffy, so this one came from ebay.

This is the closest thing that I have seen to a traditional Negro League HOF'er card (not a postcard, photo, etc.) as it pictures Martin Dihigo in his Hilldale uniform (hard to tell from the scan), where he played from 1929-31. Every other Negro League HOF'er card that I know of pictures the player in his Cuban, Puerto Rican, Venezuelan, etc. League uniform.

E91B Tinker


1933 Goudey Crosetti

[t206hound]

Picked this one up on ebay... my first "name on top" Tolstoi.

Interesting looking Dihigo card

[Rob D.]

Thanks to Rob Gutheil for this one. It's worth mentioning that Rob and I reached a deal after just a few e-mails. He didn't quote SMR, a price listed in VCP from six years ago, etc., nor did he try to squeeze every last possible nickel out of me. And he didn't ask that payment be made via PayPal gift or that I kick in $5 for shipping. A very refreshing break from what seemingly has become the norm. Thanks again, Rob.

[Kawika]

Didn't he at least tell you what he had into it?

[refz]

picked this Chase t213-2 Buf Portrait up thus finishing the Buffalo type 2 Hal Chase subset.

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank You, Matt:

Awesome.

[JamesGallo]

No idea why I bought this card. I really don't like the set, but it was too weird and he price was right.



Someone must of had a rough night before this card was printed.

Bruce! You should start a quarterly pick-up thread

[Bicem]

Nice pc Bruce!

(although low grade and a HOFer not really your MO)

[tbob]

Picked up 14 Domino Discs from Leland's Auction as I near completion of this set. Here's 4 of them.

[djrhanover]

Just received from Dan Studebaker. Very typical of the kind of cards I like to collect - lower grade (and affordable) but presents well and has great eye appeal. Small patch of paper loss on reverse brings the grade down. I now only need one more card (Anson) to complete the N28 set.

[Ladder7]

Beat reds

[bcbgcbrcb]

Steve:

WOW, that Bresnahan has a huge top border without taking away from the bottom border, which appears to be normal sized.

[tbob]

Steve- if you ever have any interest in selling the Hippo Vaughn, please let me know.

I usually shy away from strange looking prewar cards but I coudn't resist this one, a 3-D Cracker Jack

[Bicem]

nice! very cool CJ.

[joeadcock]

Steve

Cool Cobb

Thanks for your help

[t206hound]

Yeah Steve, nice Cobb. When you get tired of it, let me know. He'd look great in my office framed with his "Bat On" cousin.

Great card. If there were ever a card deserving of a double qualifier, that would be it....Looks awesome though..

[quinnsryche]

T3's just back from PSA. I am soooooooo pleased they both got 5's. Clark goes in the HOF'er collection, Merkle may have to be sold to pay off other purchases, Dean and Jennings were B/S/T purchases.

[scotty21690]

Here is what I got in today, thanks to Peter Baldes for the smooth transaction.




(Blank back)

[DanP]

Ended June with with deal with Cozmo Kramer (Eric) upgrading my very trimmed N172 Hamilton with a PSA5. Image is a little light but is actually nicer (a little darker) than the scan. Thanks Eric!

[soxinseven]

Standard Biscuit Agnew from Ebay and an E253 from Sterling Sports latest auction....
