I can’t express how comforting it is to see a financial advisor spending big bucks on cards. Great pickup Pete!

My question to Pete: are his index funds (if there are multiple) organized by subject (Cobb Index Fund, Wagner Index Fund) or set (T206 Index Fund, etc.)? ![]()

Lol Orlando & thanks guys! As I certainly believe it to be true of the stock market, I feel this hobby and great pieces are super investments as well. Kyle this one is a part of my Ruth Index Fund for sure!

Very nice, Brian.
That has always been one of my favorite Cobb cards. I guess it is because it is a rather unusual looking pose. |

That is a great looking card. Definitely one to hang onto for the long term. If I owned that card, I don't think I could have sold it.
Congrats. |

Very, very nice Pete. Great card.
I got 3 of these at the National and the Gehrig from HA. My first exhibits and only post war. My pc796 Frock was a dog with pinholes so I was to add a sharp one on an upgrade. |

Great pickups Steven. I think you got the Exhibits from Don, who has one of the best offerings at the National IMO.
I had a very successful national. Was in early Wednesday and on the road home Thursday. Pulled a few large trades, made one purchase, and met and/or met up with many people I have met on this board, and it was great to put names to faces. The first two are bucket-list items and the the third is a "no print" for my Tinker bat-off back-run. |

Had a great final day (for me) at The National. Kit Young came through in the clutch on the Alexander. The McGraw was too good of a deal to pass up, too. Dropped off the Alexander along with 6 other cards at SGC as well.
Cleveland 2018, you treated me well. Thank you. Edit: I bought what I thought was a real M101 Ray Chapman. Totally missed a few signs on it that signaled it was a reprint. Spent $25 on it. Not going to the show tomorrow, but am going to try and get a refund. Any tips would be helpful.

Made in-person National purchase of a #5 type card I've been watching online for awhile now : 1960 Darigold Farms minor league issue for the Spokane Indians. This one's their team trainer.

I knocked a few want list cards off at the National but this was my favorite pickup of the show. Thank you to the guys at Clean Sweep for the deal. Couldnt resist the Virginia Brights ladies any longer. Decent enough for starters.

![]() ..Just added the Burke " 4 x 6" to the very short master set of Johnny Vander Meer playing years baseball cards. .. The others in the scan are : 1937-1939 Orcajo Val Decker subset , the Orcajo regular issue (although why they selected that particular pose " leaping catch " for a pitcher escapes me) and a generous portion of the Huskies Whole Wheat Flakes Cereal Premium (not enough space on my scanner glasstop so I must apologize to the rest of Frank McCormick ) .. |

Pretty stoked about this one. I think it’s a full grade higher than anything on the pop report.

Thanks, Bryan & Ryan.
I think it went low, due to 4 auctions closing that night...or maybe a few of my friends laid-off, who knew I was chasing it(?)... ![]() Last edited by MVSNYC; 08-14-2018 at 11:48 AM. |
