Cards from tough sets you are happy to have, even in rough shape
Thought I would post a group of cards from tough sets that I have always considered myself fortunate to have, even if they are in rougher shape. What prompted me to post these cards is because I just found out, thanks to Net54 help, that the Connor card that for years I thought was an Old Judge is actually a Gypsy Queen. Let's see yours!
Brian (the Goodall card is a 1924 Crescent Ice Cream card...probably the most obscure of the cards I posted) |

I feel very lucky to have landed this T215 Red Cross for my Jersey City collection. The condition doesn't bother me at all.

I don't think I've posted this before. It was my first Menagerie which I got from another board member who has helped me out on a bunch of other projects as well.

Given the recent two sales of the W600 Wagner Suit, happy to have this one. One day it will get a professional cleaning to remove some of the crud.

brianp-beme,
I am glad the posting of my trimmed large size Gypsy Queen Tim Keefe card allowed you to find out your Conner card was also a trimmed Gypsy Queen card. David |

Not up to the level of some of the rarities on the thread so far but I was excited to receive this S74 Type 2 Silk of Charles Bender

T4 John Tiedemann (Trimmed to oval)
My first T4 was trimmed to the oval, so I had it matted to the size of the original.

Happy to have recently roped in this heavily trimmed card.

That's my favorite kind of card really.

Here are a few that the condition I ignore. There are others, of course, but these are really tough cards to find, let alone finding them in pristine shape (well the D304 Cobb can be found nicer, but not in my price range!).

Better to have a beater than a hole in one's collection!

Great way to put it.
Not from a tough set, and not pre-war, but I am very glad I own this one.
