Really excited to add a Ruth to my collection.

I’m a sucker for black and white Ruth’s!

Just saw you posted the Ruth I had sold via Myslabs. I should have just posted in the BST, and could have saved us both some money.

Well, live and learn.

Hope you enjoy the Ruth!

LOTG win. Collecting goals were radically changed to make this happen, but it was worth it. Thanks to Al for another great auction.

This one scratches two itches, West Coast type card and Ty Cobb in a seldom seen pose. Relatively rare with less than 25 known examples.

Nice pick-up Phil!

[Rhotchkiss]

Congrats Phil. That is a great card, front and back. Great pose too

[Casey2296]

Thanks for the kind words guys.

[skelly423]

That Cobb used to reside in my collection a few owners back. Enjoy, it's a really scarce card.

I recently picked up this German Transfer stamp, pretty much just for the back transfer. I like these little oddities, and this one goes well with the other two cards that I have with back imprints.

[mrreality68]

Great pickups Gary

Love that Rittenhouse Ruth. I just picked one up in Red

[mrreality68]

Here are my December Pickups

The 1923/24 Exhibit is the rarer version of the 1921 exhibit Ruth. It has condition opportunities but I am proud to have it and the condition gives it personality

Thanks, Jeff. I love your pickups also. The 23-24 Exhibits is crazy rare, and I've always been a big fan for the Rittenhouses.

A bunch of other great additions for others in December.

Jesse, that's a beautiful US Caramel Ruth.

Aaron, incredible pickups. That Jax just pops.

Thanks Sean, I remember it popping up on Tony's sight, then here, then eBay, and finally Heritage. Every time I went to pull the trigger it had sold. Figured it was meant to be in my collection since it kept coming up until I bought it.

[Aaron Seefeldt]

Recent pick ups, I’m grateful. Now it’s time to step back for a bit…

[CobbSpikedMe]

Daaammmnnn, Aaron. Nice additions.

[charlietheexterminator]

A lot of nice cards so far. Phil, love that Cobb, now you need the Boston Store. Josh, beautiful Ruth. Jim, it’s a Cobb month for you.

I just left the Philly Show, picked up the W514 Jackson from a hobby friend, plus two other recent pick up’s.

+1 agreed Mike.

Not sure how I missed that one on B/S/T

[walker066]

Picked this up at Philly Show yesterday. Nice low grade copy.

[Vintagedeputy]

I liberated the ‘39 Play Ball Lew Riggs from an antique store today, and the T205 Peaches Graham arrived in the mail!

[anchorednw]

Now have 13 of 16 for the set!

[brunswickreeves]

Great pickups!

[mybuddyinc]

Recently, I have come to the conclusion that we "back" collectors are a odd bunch .......

Whereas most collectors are excited about Cobb, Matty, and Young (as well they should be), I am thrilled to add these two "lesser known" gentleman to my set .....

Fun, fun, Scott

Getting this in:

[wazoo]

I’ve always wanted this combo

[pokerplyr80]

I posted this in the REA pick up thread that I started, but I really like this card. So in posting it here too.

[anchorednw]

Fortunate to pick up 2 more Abner Dalrymple OJs from Net54 members to run the total to 6 now.

[Casey2296]

West Coast rarities, 1913 Oakland Team Issue. Always happy when a trade works out for both parties. Thanks Ed.

Greg, great looking Witmor Candy card of Wheat. Which back does it have? I love cards like this from obscure sets.
