Default E95 Bill Carrigan

New type for me. Carrigan is the only catcher in the set, so I'm one and done!

Interesting enough, it came from a Maine dealer who had a variety of Carrigan cards. Carrigan was from Lewiston, Maine. In now resides in my Maine collection.

I'm in love with buying these Walter Johnson animal pics. Definitely not going to retire on them in 10 years but something you don't see every day 😆

It looks like Walter is texting while feeding his roosters.

Hi Jim

I’m not familiar with that “Rinky Dink” stamp Ruth.... is there a set called Rinkey Dink out there?

The reason I ask is that my father played semi pro baseball back in the late 40’s in mid state coastal Maine for a team called the “East Side Rinky Dinks” and I’d love to add a Rinky Dink card if any HOFer to my collection as a tip to him

Any info on that set would be greatly appreciated!

Jeff

Jim- always cool to see a card I once owned (W574 Grove) showing up again on Net54...guess that's one advantage to having them graded.

Cool group of additions...congrats!

Recent pickup from REA. I'm all about vivid colors, and this card just wowed me. It looks even better in person.

Saturday at our local show I see a single T206 (card on left) in the bottom of the dealers glass case, and I asked to see it. Lew Ritter catcher Kansas City Blues, and dealer say twenty five dollars. When I point out the inked in catchers gear new price ten dollars and I swoop in for the purchase. Some artistic talent right there!

I like the artwork on the mask on this one. Maybe the 'artist' wanted Lew to break into the exclusive Fred Snodgrass and Mike Powers T206 mask club.

Pittsburg Pirates real photo postcard sent from spring training in Hot Springs, AR. The year is not legible in the postmark, but the one graded example I could find (SGC) says 1910.

Be careful about sharing where you live. You might have many of us moving in and never leaving.
Very nice set up and those Fenway seats are very cool and go perfect with the space

Couple of random pickups for me. Finally decided to sell off some 80’s RC’s and had to get a little something to fill the void.

This came in the mail today. Another step closer to completing my '33 Goudey set! #230 is one of best of the set for my money. I wanted a nice one, but kept coming up short, until now. I never thought I'd end up with a 2, but I'm quite happy with this card. The colors are strong. This is easily one of the nicest 2's in my collection.

I saw this as a raw card on eBay and recognized that it looked like the lone legit example in the sea of fake/reprint ungraded Ruths. The seller had some other Goudey commons for sale, and after talking to him I felt good about it. Turned out, he'd owned it for 30+ years and when he mailed it to me, it was wrapped like a present. What a nice guy.

Sent it to PSA and it got the grade it deserves. Just arrived back in-hand last night. It's no beauty queen, but still quite presentable for a 1.

IT is a beauty to us. And glad you got a great card and thanks for sharing

Been lurking here for 12 years (!) and finally have a pick up to share, found "in the wild' at an estate sale. Not the prettiest but it's a nice back.

I would be proud to have this card in my collection. Great detective work, the sea of fake Goudey Ruths on ebay is not for the feint of heart.
Congratulations!

Picked up a nice little Matty Disc. Also Mr. Charizard - don't laugh. Guess which cost more. Times are-a-chang'in.

Big month for my PC. Traded for the Gehrig with a member here (thanks Jay!), and finally added a CJ card.

As the Boss says, “You ain’t a beauty but hey, you’re all right...oh, and that’s all right with me.” Well done!

Just got these two in the mail today. The Dahlen is an upgrade (my other one, a green one, has terrible paper loss due to the paper chipping off) and the McGraw makes number 13 for me so far in the set.

Thank you so much for the help Phil!!!

Many thanks to Ed S. for these awesome Claude Berry cabinets.
