Thank you Chris:

[Runscott]

Wow, Jeff - when you upgrade, you REALLY upgrade. Nice

[mintacular]

Probably my favorite of 6 I picked up recently via the BST (Tony). Like the "Stork" pose:

[Leon]

1946-7 Cuba Cuban Baseball Sol de Oro Sherry Almendares Team Pic O'Neil Jessup...and rather large at that.
.

[bcbgcbrcb]

Very nice pick-up, Leon.

[calvindog]

Scott -- thanks. I'm addicted to Chase, not ashamed to say it.

[atx840]

Thanks to Jamie for pointing me to this one.

Nice Broad Leaf 460! My BL 460 konetchy is one of my favorites....

Tony,

Those are great. I especially like the top one. I have been collecting RPPC's for use in a documentary - probably have enough, but just can't resist a great photo. Now I'm finally finding out who the guys are who have been beating me to death on these (and vice versa).

Lovely Day...

[iggyman]

Oh, forgot I had one more recent pickup. I'm happy to add this 1935 Goudey Premium Hank Greenberg to the harem without having to breakout any Benjamin's. Whew, glad this went under the radar.

Chris! Big Pick Up Congrats!

BL 460 is real tough.... and a HOFer BL460 to boot!!. Great card.

Jamie

[markf31]

I'm pretty new to the vintage scene, I've only collected a handful of vintage items so far and I'm happy to say this is my first major acquisition!

[g_vezina_c55]

Nice t205

[Runscott]

Hey Mark - FYI, you can also reach me via PM here, or from my website. Much easier than ebay.

Welcome to vintage card collecting!

[markf31]

Thanks Scott, and I will keep that in mind for the future!

[Iwantmorecards77]

Thanks to board member Joey!

Tip Top

[Runscott]

Another RPPC. I paid a lot for this one, but the back has notes indicating that the scribe was affiliated with the team. It's only the second Bloomers action shot I've been able to pick up, so very pleased:

[tbob]

A couple of upgrades and a variation card of Smith. The Ryan SF is one of the toughest in the set and to get it in a 60 makes me smile

Steve- I think we knew it was lightly trimmed on the bottom but congratulations on a gorgeous and very tough card. It looks great!

[soxinseven]

Thanks tbob...I knew it was trimmed but still a very presentable card...it looks great in the SGC holder.

[Chris D.]

The Wheat and Duffy are from the Sterling auction, and the Beckley and Clarke are from the BST - thanks, Nate!

[7nohitter]

That Wheat is a great card...way better than a 20

Yeah, the date stamp really brought it down, but I think it's pretty cool.

[mintacular]

Great cards Chris, no we just need to convince you to get a new scanner!

My Old Scanner (like yours):

Thanks! That's what I was thinking. I was comparing my scans to everyone else's. Maybe I need to adjust some settings.

[ullmandds]

Thanks to Chris B...I love this one...and it will be in my collection until I die...or become terminally ill and need the $$$$ for morphine!!!!!

[tjlives]

Absolutely love that Wheat card, was one of the underbidders on it actually. I wish more "20s" looked like that!

[g_vezina_c55]

My first may pick up and my first southern league player

Thanks. It's probably the nicest T206 I have ever owned. Really looks great in person.

[leftygrove10]

Yup I just dropped some major buck on the N29 Ewing this week, so I am chillin for awhile. I keep seeing that N43 Ewing on ebay for $6,000, a little rediculous of a price in my opinion.

1929 Kashin Babe Ruth (R316)

Thanks Jim. Add Leon to the group of collectors - if any two of us dropped out, the ebay prices would probably drop by 2/3
