Two small bits of paper loss on his arm (one can't really be seen in the scan)... very fortuitous ones at that.

[YazFenway08]

I have a couple of cracker jacks with a small amount of “paper loss” on the reverse that got “2”s. Otherwise they are fantastic. I guess I get the technical grade standards, but your Ruth and my CJs just look too good for those grades.

Great pickup

Definitely a nice card, Leon. I was a bidder as well, I'm glad to see it went to you!

Goudey got Ruth's birth date & year wrong. I never noticed before.

Beautiful card, Leon.

[Howe’s Hunter]

#384 in Howe’s rebuilt collection just arrived.

[Casey2296]

Nice #181 Leon, you don't find them that centered too often.

Picked up another west coast type addition.

Nice pickup Leon, I was another underbidder on that one. Glad it went to someone on the forum. I was able to pick up this Hornsby, now down to 6 for my HOF subset.

Congrats! I'm so happy to see you finally land one, and a damn nice one at that!

[chadeast]

Another Cy, arrived today.

[christopher.herman]

Picked this one up from a fellow Net54'er. I couldn't be happier.

[Casey2296]

Upgrade to the master set, member pick up, thanks John.

Thanks Chad, making progress!

Won this in May, but didn't pick it up until June. This is from the seller's auction, as my scanner is not hooked up at present, but I was giddy to discover that the distracting white blotch over Frank's head was on the scan and not the card--something I learned when I researched the card prior to bidding.

No disrespect intended, but Frank is walking like he could use a little Preparation H.

Frank sometimes had digestive distress. Here's a lithograph from the same photoshoot Love these "action" shots:

[Kevin]

One day, I'll figure out how to scan and upload stuff. Fantastic stuff, folks.

I like the Epson V600 scanner, about $225 new. Easy to hook up easy to use, there's also a member post here about scanning pictures that answers more questions that one could ever have. I'll try and find it or maybe another member has it handy.

NEVER thought that I'd own one...

[asoriano]

[RCMcKenzie]

Those are nice T205's, gang. Broad Leaf is a great find and Wheat is very sharp. Here's a lower grade Wheat from T213-3 that arrived today. Now at 63/70

[gabrinus]

Nice one Rob...Jerry

[VintageBen]

Very excited about getting this!!! I had to sell a bunch of cards to put together the PC796 set. Trying to get some of the cards I had to give up about 2 years ago. The card is a tad bit skinny, but it presents better than most grade 1’s and grade 2’s.

Beautiful card! Congrats.

These two Turkeys arrived today. and Spoiler Alert! I will not be cracking out the Chase to rip up

[G1911]

I'm weird, I'd rather have a ton of commons to play with than a single superstar. Got a big batch and a small batch from the BST to spend this weekend sorting and cataloguing. Thank you, gentlemen!

[IgnatiusJReilly]

SWEET start to what can be a VERY addicting set!

Good Luck!

Yesterday's haul.

[RCMcKenzie]

Thanks, Jerry. I'm making a lot of progress on the T213-3's.

Here's another back I'm working on that is going along slowly. From last month, just getting around to scanning these Cycle 460's... the Crandall also adds to my Doc Crandall port back run, I think I'm only missing UZIT now, not sure if I have all of the SC's.

[AMBST95]

[packs]

Picked up another Cobb:

The Dougherty portrait is one of my favorite T206s. I just love the purple background on this card. Nice Wagner addition too Phil.

Big progress arrived today on my T205 Cleveland Naps collection. From a recent Greg Morris cards auction.
