Picked this one up IN PERSON from fellow board member Jim F. Jim is the first member I have met in person! It was pretty cool picking up a Ty Cobb card on my way to work today in Toronto. This is my first vintage Cobb and I love it!

Completed my basic T206 Rube Waddell back run by acquiring a Sov350 Throwing. Now I need to look into factory variations. I will post pics in a separate thread of the whole bunch once I get all the scans together.

Major find, the Chattanooga Tenn find of Oct 2011
We can call it the Chattanooga Tenn find of October 2011.
A total of 350 cards which included 19 different Mino backs including Cobb & Mathewson, and 23 different D303 General baking cards including Mathewson & Wagner, and seven D304 General Baking including Cobb, Wagner, Mathewson, Crawford, Chase and a cut Evers. There was also a lot of Kottons, over 200 Coupon cards and one Hindu Bresnahan and one Peoples Virginia extra. Here are some images of the find:         Also, had a small Cracker Jack deal, but it did have Cobb & Jackson in there:   All deals come with a story so here is this one briefly. I did get a call some time ago from a woman who mentioned a difficult card that she said was donated for a silent auction and she wanted information and help with pricing. I gave her what she wanted, and did not hear back from her. Then, about a month or two ago or so, I got an email from her asking about cards with a mino back, once again, I gave her some information but did not hear back. About two weeks ago, she contacts me and asks if I would be interested in some General Baking cards as well as some Coupon cards, I said of course and her husband and I worked out a price. Apparently, they were his grandfathers cards who was born around 1901 so I assume he collected them as a kid. He later told me that when they found them after he died about 10 years ago, they were all in a paper bag. His wife actually found my site about 10 years ago, but never called until this year. They had previously given these cards to their son, but when he went to school, he gave them back recently and they decided to sell them. Back to the story, once we agreed on a price, he mentioned he still had some cards that his wife did not tell me about, I remembered the email and asked about it and if he had any Mino back cards, to which he replied he did, as well as cottons, and some T207 cards with anonymous backs including a Lewis! We agreed on a price on all of those cards as well, and I flew back last Thursday to pick them up. He held out on me a little, they would not sell me the Kotton Wagner and Plank they had, they said those were the two cards the son wanted to keep. The Cracker Jack Cobb & Jackson was a separate deal that started to happen at about the same time, and I just got the bulk of those in the mail today, got the Jackson last week. Well, thats the story, I will probably shoot a little youtube video about it, some of you have probably already seen some of my videos, you can link to them from my site. Most of the cards are out to SGC, some are sold, but still have lots left if you want to contact me. Thanks for looking Dave's Vintage Baseball Cards gfg@gfg.com
