I gave that one a long look myself. Congrats on the pickup!

[RCMcKenzie]

Nice ones, Val and Brian.

[Casey2296]

Congrats Val, fantastic pick up. Great card Brian.

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank you, Chad, Rob and Phil.

[Brian Van Horn]

Don't know this guy, but I like the postcard. The three lines on the back upper left are from the resting of the plastic sleeve. They are not permanent flaws.

[GasHouseGang]

Thanks Bob!

[Leon]

going for types again ...could spell trouble for the pocketbook.

[gabrinus]

I just can't resist a good miscut E220 Luckily for me, most of them are. Speaker arrived today. Hornsby is a member pickup from earlier this month, just re-posting it here cuz they look good together.

Good month for the Contentnea set

The Quality Control Manager of National Caramel must have been drunk most of the tome. You never see a centered one.

Picked up last week.

Don't care for the slab company but love the card. Been a while since I posted a vintage pickup.

[Thromdog]

Fun little oddity I just got back from SGC. An E91 Al Bridwell with an upside down back and the wrong back too. The back is intended for an E91-C card and the Giants weren’t in that set.

That's really cool, Jeff. I love the "fly on the wall" perspective; in this case, at the printer; putting aside for the moment that backs of the sheet were run upside down; that was supposed to be Heinie Wagner of the Red Sox.
"New York" on chest, changed to "Boston", by the art dept.
Name plate and "New York, N.L." changed to Name plate and "Boston, A.L.", by the type set dept. Both were shortstops for their respective teams.

So, were they training an apprentice(s) or maybe came back from a liquid lunch, lol.
.... or at least; "do a Test Sheet for the new back configuration", ... Whoops!
One thing for certain, the American Caramels were going on the cheap with the 'C' set; re-using the artwork from actual player facial likenesses from the A/B sets.

So cool Jeff. Thank you for sharing. I find the E91 set fascinating.

Nice one, Andrew!

[G1911]

From the BST, I know Bescher is the common one but I've always liked the Tango's and their odd history. Never bought one since I usually do full sets and this set is... basically impossible.

Nice pickup; I was eyeballing that one myself.

Glad the Hornsby found a good home Chad!

Andrew, that E107 Cy Young is incredible! Congrats!

I got this really nice Ruth upgrade earlier this month! The Faber was a bit earlier...

Happy to have added all of these (not to scale) thanks to winning an NFL survivor pool.
