Picked up this Red Cobb from Pete Gustafson (thanks Pete) to celebrate my 2,000th T206 front/back combo.

Nicely centered Cobb.

I don't normally collect press photos, but picked up this 1935 photo featuring HOFer Larry MacPhail (3rd from left), mainly because it also pictures a buddy of mine's grandfather, pitcher Bud Teachout (far left). Teachout had a brief major league career with the Cubs & Cardinals, before finishing with the minor league Columbus Redbirds (MacPhail's team). Couldn't pass this up.

I love mail! My first graded T206, a very crisp looking Harry Davis; surprised it's just a Good/30
Thanks Jimmy! http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...bbb3bca8b3.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...67d9173d8e.jpg Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk |

Looks like Jim Thorpe as youth on right?

Baseball players? :D Greg, Although the jaw line and the nose may remind people of Thorpe, remember Thorpe was 6'1". |

Really happy to have added these 2! Why does it always post sideways?!?!
I use TinyPic and the preview shows it the right way. Argh! |
Quote:
It is because you are using TinyPic......I guess. Fixed but lets get together on this in the future :) |

Were you holding out for a big name player for #2000? or it just happened to be a Red Cobb by chance? also I'd be curious to see your backs distribution % (just for fun) if you have it handy. |

Actually got this at auction in February but didn't have time to post last month. This was my main target for 2016.

Thanks for the compliments on the Jennings everyone. I also picked up this bad mamma jamma, a card that was a pipe dream as a kid and something that I never thought I would own.

E94 Cobb
1 Attachment(s)
Not exactly a news-making Cobb, but I imagine this was found in a paper bag at some point. (I actually learned on this site that it's an e94 that's mislabeled.)

Awesome Cobb! Would it be poor form to ask how much that one cost you? Been wanting one for a while! Thanks Josh |
E98 Matty

Psyched to make a deal for this Matty outside eBay, and got to do the preferable in person exchange for it since the seller happened to live nearby. It's graded a 1, but looks much better in hand.

My "new" Red Cobb ..... great registration and image.
Also, love the SC 460/25 off center back :) Attachment 223293 Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes: |
Nice Cobb. I want a red background, but can't seem to save enough to buy one. Maybe that should be a goal this year. I hear there are a few Ty Cobb backs going up for sale.

He pm'd me... Nice guy and an awesome card. Happy for him! |
So I am a bit behind on my scanning.. Here are my latest pick ups!
The Bresnahan batting (x2!) gives me complete Cardinals T206 team set (all the fronts anyway..) except for some guy named O'Hara. Hartzell, Criger & Bailey are my first American Caramel cards. A huge thank you to all the board members who have helped me in my quest to complete (almost..) my T206 Cardinals team set! http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/...psxcetxzpv.jpg http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/...psmeouhequ.jpg |
Great cards guys ...Love that e98 Matty/cobb and the CJ Cobb... It is a beauty !

I actually picked this little gem up from another board member about ten days
ago, but we agreed to postpone delivery of this card so we could both met up for lunch yesterday. As I inch closer to this set (now only 16 cards away), I've had the very fortunate privilege to get to develop several close friendships during this quest. To the board member who sold me this card, thank you! The next time we meet up I'm buying lunch. ErikV |

Picked up both of these from board members in the past couple weeks. Not really sure what to make of the Young. It's definitely some type of frankencard, but the front seems to be rather thin stock.

Just picked up this unreal T209 scrap. T209 "Color"...with no color!! Also a WST on the back. Never seen another T209 scrap like it.
It will be available for sale or trade once it is in hand. http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/y...psvanblgtn.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/y...psgptgsjpx.jpg Tom C |
Awesome Tom!! Where did you find this at? I keep searching antique stores and garage sales for scrap and......well anything baseball with very little luck. Unless I want a box of 1988 Donruss, lol.
