Thank you, Phil!

One more off this list, thanks Tom! I'm now down to 2 remaining for the HOF Portrait subset (Matty and Green Cobb). I'm hoping to knock out the Matty this year...the Green Cobb...possibly never at the rate those are increasing unless I sell a lot off.

Picked up my first T211 in a trade with a fellow member yesterday.

[CobbSpikedMe]

Sweet Ben! Those are so cool.

Since it's a new pick up... Ty (Corn on the) Cobb

[Casey2296]

That's a fantastic Corn Cobby Leon, congrats.

[RCFire82]

I didn't pick this one up, but somebody did (beat me to completing the buy it now by seconds). At $399 the seller obviously didn't know what they had, and kudos to the lucky buyer 👍

[ocjack]

Added 4 cards to my "members of the tribe" collection.

[Joem36]

I picked up 7 more for my set. Now have 108/204. I think I’m the only one collecting this set now.

[Dead-Ball-Hitter]

Got my first two items from Lee at Sterling. Couldn't have made it easier to buy at auction: fast invoice, Paypal, mailed the next day. Thanks!

[Leon]

Nice to add a scarce Cobby...

Picked up a few Southern Leaguers last week.

Nice Shaw. Tough combo. I thought I overpaid for my Shaw Cycle a couple of years ago, but I haven't seen many since.

[Brian Van Horn]

Old Mill back greater than crease.

[Jstottlemire1]

Thanks Leon. Certainly a favorite.

Nice U.S. Caramel Ruth. And you have to check out the Annoying Hat thread for a fun adjustment to the Babe's cap.

Thank you. I was checking that out. Here’s another addition to Ruth Pc as well.

[MVSNYC]

Great stuff, guys!

Looks like I won this in REA...

[DStars45]

I’ve finally picked up my first two T206 cards (3 more currently on the way). Going to work on collecting Tigers for now as I make my way up to a Cobb.

Thanks Chuck. Looking to add one more soon if any available my friend. As always I appreciate it.

[Mutton Chop Yaz]

A few T201s on their way back from Florida.

Previously mentioned in REA post, but picked this up in REA auction.

Who doesn't love Mel Ott? Nice pick up Sean.

[Dead-Ball-Hitter]

Any E92 collectors out there? Just bought my first - Patsy Dougherty, two-time World Series Champ, member of the first World Series winning team: the Boston Americans (Red Sox).

[mordecaibrown1]

A Cobb I liked when I bought it but then did a little research on it!

[Vintagedeputy]

These just arrived!

[mordecaibrown1]

Thanks Leon!

That is one heck of a rare Beauty Cobb you picked up!!! Got to love the rare stuff!!!

[MVSNYC]

Thanks Chuck & Ryan!

Great stuff, everyone!

[gm1967]

Thanks to a Net54 member, I was able to add this Dutch Reuther notebook cover to my Reds collection. Notice the fans standing on the roof of the lower deck along the 3rd base line at Redland Field. I would assume the image is from the 1919 World Series.

This card has always intrigued me. Certainly, it has to be one of Babe's strangest cards, perhaps rivaled by the Baby Snookums horror. Does anybody know the story behind it? My fertile imagination, being what it is, has come up with different scenarios how this card came to be. One has Babe endorsing a new carrier pigeon delivery service and the shady hombre off Babe's right shoulder is the agent who got him into the deal. Maybe I need a nap.

Was pigeon racing around then?

[Brian Van Horn]

Given what is written on the back left side, I could not resist. I also have to wonder if the guy was alive until after the 1919 World Series and whether he bet on the White Sox again. Still, one thing that I can get to help the value of the postcard.....a bet in of all places, Atlantic City, NJ. Yawn.
