Congratulations! Some great images in that lot. You do have a knack! :) Kevin |
great cards Dave, congrats!
|
Wow, I'm speechless. Those are beauties!
|
:eek:WOW:eek:
|
Looking forward to the video on how they were found. I enjoyed the other videos on YouTube.

Dave, you have the magic touch. I also await hearing the story behind the find.
|
Wow can't believe those were in Fargo. Best thing to come out of there since Roger Maris.
|
:eek: Congratulations Dave! :eek:

The O'Neil in the Goodwin auction is no longer the only one in existence.

Must be pretty nice to be able to afford those things...
Beautiful cards indeed tho. |
The entire collection is terrific, but I'm most impressed with the Police Gazette Mickey Welch. Looks like a new find to me, don't recognize that one at all.
|
Great stuff. Truly. With those as part of the journey, Fargo would be beautiful this time of year...
It just goes to show the doubters that there's still lots of stuff out there, some in the hands of lurkers here, some held by folks who might not be on line, some by folks who aren't aware of what high regard we here would have for stuff they have boxed in an attic. Thanks for posting. Really like the look of that Clarkson... not the most valuable, but best looking to me. |
You reek of awesomeness!
|
I didn't think so

OK. Bye Brad. I'm going to miss you, but only because I love non sequitors. |
David,
Absolutely teriffic find! All I can say is, wow! |
Congrats Dave !
Fantastic collection. The mounts and team changes suggest they may all date to 1889. If only the Hanlon, Conway, Brouthers, Richardson, & Ganzel were one year earlier you'd have some nice Detroit cabinets. Beyond the team changes, the lack of a colored mount and the occassional Dog's Head also suggest 1889. Very nice indeed. |
Wow.
|
And about the Welsh Police Gazette, it's based off an 1886 Joseph Wood photo. Same photo was used to make his N167 card. Many of the Police Gazette cards are based on photos that date to 1886 & 1887. I believe Police Gazette cabinets were issued over several year period, but that's a good discussion for another thread.
|
Oh my goodness.
Beautiful cards... When you get a chance, though, can you hunt down another AWH Caramel find? I want to saturate the market and drive those prices down ;) |
Joe - good observation. The N167, Four Base Hits, Kalamazoo Bats and G&B Gum issues all used the 1886 Joseph Wood Cabinet images.

And don't forget the Yum Yums. They have many of the 1886 photos from the Giants & Mets (all Joseph Wood photos). In the case of the Mets they use the Spotted Tie portraits but list the new team (Mets disbanded after 1887).

Incredible find!!!

Absolutely amazing! Love the image on Pinkney's cabinet.
