Boy, that Cobby is ablaze. Over-gig'd for the miscut, still believe it should be an 80. |

Seller mislabeled this as "Boston" instead of "Brooklyn", now it's all MINE! |

I rarely post in the pickup threads because I seldom have anything to contribute except the odd T206 common in low grade. This card is low grade too, but I had to share my first Cobb. The Cobb red background has to be my favorite T206. I love the way the red background contrasts the grey Detroit uniform and Cobb's steely blue eyes. |

No back damage (unless you count the initials ETH written in blue ink). There are a couple creases that don't show well on the scan, one across the chest and one at the top of Cobb's head. On the plus side, the registration and color are great. |

Jim - that is a fantastic looking cobb for the grade. Probably stands a chance at a 20 if you sent it to sgc (not much of a bump, but the black border on the slab will really make that card stand out and look even better than it already does). |

Great cards all around guys! Steve, I especially like those E97s. I like them so much I named my son after them. Just kidding although his first name is Briggs. |

My first W600. Would be a great set to build, except they cost a fortune and there are over 600 cards. Maybe one is enough. |

steve, it's a psa3...typical VG card rounded corners no crease/wrinkle. one of my very first prewar cards was a nice e93 wagner so i've always been sentimental about it. |

jeff it's from the latest mile high auction. it's a psa5, i agree with the description that it looks NRMT but the front printing prolly dropped the grade down. |

I don't know how I missed that one. That's some 5. It's not a print defect and even if it were, how can that get knocked down to a 5? I'd love to see what SGC would do with that one. Great card. |

I just traded/purchased this card and am glad that it will be going into my collection. This one doesn't show up very often and will fit well in my set. |

Please give us the low down on the N172s! Nice grouping of cards John, did you really find them as you described? 3 1887s, a pair of 1888s, & a pair of 1889s. Give us more details, it's hard to make out all the names. Nice Watkins! |

Joe, the players are Burdock,Watkins,Murray,Scrappy Carroll,Bastian,Farrar and Dwyer. I figured a Detroit collector like yourself would love the Watkins. |

Adam- I've already packaged the Zeenut Howard to head off to SGC so I can't post the scan but thanks, best buy I've made on the BST thread in a long time, that is a really tough card of him in his civvies. |

The Ruth is a 1933 Blue Bird. They are rare, & I think very cool. I scanned it with a piece of cardboard behind it. It was the closest thing handy. My scanner kept cropping the edges without it. Maybe I should read the directions. |

Thanks Jason - in fact, your purchase did help fund the cobb - and since I was able to pick it up raw at a good price, it contributed to a larger percentage than you might otherwise have thought. |

I think I may have found a way to "add" significant cards to my collection! - I will simply buy cheaper cards in my price range to fill out my collecting needs from Board members who collect high end cards using the proceeds from my purchases!...that way, they're sort of mine too...in an extremely loose manner of speaking... |
