I saw your threads, that your looking for one. There was a nice Hornsby in HA last year that was a PSA 6.
I am currently collecting the W-Unc Big Heads set (PSA registry). I have most of the big name ones, so now i can focus on the others oddballs.

Mine was in a SGC holder20/1.5 and traveled the board here many times among collectors here. I got it here in 2015, solely as a RC purchase.
I converted it to PSA when i got the Cobb and had them both done in the past yr/
It sits in a PSA 1 holder.
Here they are:

Howdy.

I have a raw Carl Mays Big Head that I'd be willing to trade, if you need it and make me an offer I can't refuse! It's in great shape, though it does have a small handwritten number "8" in the top margin. **I can't seem to figure out how to post an image here. Sorry. But I can email it.**

I have a newly graded, beautifully colored (PSA "A") Babe Ruth Big Head that I have no plans of moving anytime soon. (The Ruth has a small handwritten number "13" in the top margin.) From what I can tell, it is one of 14 ever graded across the major grading houses, and I'd argue that mine is right near the top for color and clarity. (Again, I can email the image.)

Best, Rick

HERITAGE AUCTION-
There was 3 separate listings for these little boogers---
1- Ruth $8250 (9900BP)
2. Wajo $2200 (2640BP)
3. Set of 15 $3200 (3840BP)
(there was no Bodie or Judge & Cobb)

I bidded on all 3 of these items and raised them up numerous times. There were some times i was the high bidder and there was not.
I had hopes on 1 of the items to say at best.
Ended with NONE .
****If for any chance that someone won some to upgrade or for whatsoever, LMK if any for sell.

**Bump***
I did add a Leon Cadore, thanks to a board member
still looking to add more. Still got a long way to go for this 20 card set.
Need List:
Bagby, Bancroft, Baker, Bodie, Burns, Doyle, Grogh, Judge, Konetchy, Mays, Milan, Rice, Schalk, Schang, Sisler

[pawpawdiv9]

Update:
The day after the last post i was able to grab 6 of these by a fellow board member.
They came from the Heritage auction i was underbidder on.
So, this is a HUGE suprise and a generous thankyou.
I added Schalk, Bagby, Mays, Burns, Doyle, Konecthey.

Then at Sterlings auction- was a Schang (raw) and in very poor shape and missed out/outbid on (which seems) twice.

Still looking to finish this set. All i NEED is 9 players!!!
(those are located in my signature)

[pawpawdiv9]

*BUMP*
Its been a while, since the last time....anybody seen any for sell or have one they might sell? Folks attending the Nationals this month-- Please look out for me- i need 9 of these little boogers to finish this journey.
