Another purple e94 down. Thanks Alan.




I cant wait until my 93 McGraw arrives in the next day or two so I can start the 6th November pickup thread.

Thanks Matt - Im glad you took it as humorous. Too many people get their feather's ruffled too easily around here. Though I am serious about starting a 6th pickup thread in the next day or two - since it apparently doesnt matter how many pick up threads we have, Ive decided that I always want my cards to be first and the only way to insure that is to constantly start new threads everytime I get something.

I was laughing at the OP before you edited it - that you were the one who started this thread.

As you might have guessed, I started it intentionally based on how the "discussion" thread ended.

Deadball Paul,

Great PC's! Curious about the Champion Exhibit Ruth. My 2005 Standard Catalog dates that card to 1932, supposedly issued in conjunction with the 1932 World's Fair in Chicago. Why the discrepancy?

Also, ditto on that McGraw, JK!

That's something I'm curious about too. I'm more of a postcard collector than Exhibits, but I knew it was one of Ruth's rarest cards, so I picked it up. I do believe the image is earlier than 1925. Maybe one of our Exhibits experts can shed some light.

Scott - the Cobb and the Ruth in the last pickup thread are fantastic!

Matt,

Nice card, but hard to believe that would be a printer's cut and not a really bad trim job.

Dave - I know nothing about 1949 Bowman cuts, which is why I put the seller's description in quotes in my post It does look very odd to me - perhaps someone with more knowledge can help clarify.

Matt,

The card was obviously "hand cut" from a sheet!

I believe the Cobb photo is from a 1920's all-star tour overseas. I had a hard time finding a Cobb auto/photo to slab. Thank you for the compliments.

I just need #4 Eddie Collins for Completion!

There was one listed on eBay a few weeks ago, but a board member sniped it at the last second. I don't mind, but it was sure a nice card!

Very happy about this one - it replaces another N172 Keefe in my collection with an inferior image, but the same grade.

Your picture comes from the collection of Mitsuhiko Fujita, grandson of Baron Denzaburo Fujita, who grew up watching and playing baseball in Kobe, Japan. According to Sotheby’s/SCP, which recently auctioned off his collection: “Young Mitsuhiko always carried his camera, taking as many photographs of both the Japanese and American baseball greats as he could. He then had the photographs developed, ready to be signed at the ballpark the following day.”

Your photo of Ty Cobb comes from November 1928, when Ty Cobb traveled to Japan with a few other Major Leaguers including Bob Shawkey and Herb Hunter. They were invited to Japan by the Mainichi Newspaper to train with and play 12 games with the Japanese Daimai team.

Here are other photos from the tour (from various sources), featuring Cobb, Shawkey and Hunter, as well as another featuring Cobb and the Damai team:








No, I don't own all these photos...I wish I did, though!

Robert,
Thank You!, for the information. I tip my hat to Mitsuhiko and his passion/work.

A W502 pick-up "one bagger".

A great big Thank You to JoeD!
This one doesn't fit into my collection, but I decided to jam it in there just the same, because my opportunities to pick up a card of Mr. Jackson are otherwise very slim. I will be crossing over to SGC and taking the downgrade when I get around to it (writing on reverse).

Very excited to get this one, as it has 4 of the more legendary characters of the deadball era on the same card!
Jax
Nap
Graney, and...
Larry!!!!

utterly fantastic!

I think the same action shot is on his Pinkerton postcard. I would trade it for a PC796 Sepia or Novelty Cutlery Wagner I'll probably sell it in the future to dig out of the holes I'm constanly in from buying other cards. What a hobby !!!

From Ebay. It's in the Post War Pickups too-These old square Bowmans seem pre-war even though they are not (unless you count the Korean War)
