nice pickup, really like that Cobb.

[tbob]

Finally picked up the 6th and last color variation of Cicotte in the E94 series.

[sox1903wschamp]

Nice pickup Bob. Somehow I knew that was you. I think I was the 2nd under bidder. Nice card.

[piedmont150]

Thanks to Larry H for two of these. All obtained within days of each other. Sometimes the pickins are too good to resist.

[cozmokramer]

Wanted this card for a while!

[Jacklitsch]

Nice Gilliam Squires

[kkkkandp]

A nice cabinet of a 19th century team from my alma mater.

Contrary to what some people have said, I did not play on this squad!

Thanks, Rhys!

[docpatlv]

A couple of Eddies...



Unfortunately lost out on the Mathewson, Chance, and Baker the seller also had.

[D. Broughman]

Thanks Keith only 5 more to complete the set of 48

[David W]

A few more all time Red Birds

[calvindog]

Finally got around to getting this one slabbed in order to keep it safe from my 5 year olds:

Dammit, Doc! I wanted that Plank! I took home the Matty, Chance and Baker.

Let me know if we can work out some kind of trade.

[Robextend]

Thanks to board members Mike B, James G and Mike S (via Grandslam bids) for these cards...

[vintagechris]

Gotta love it when you can pick up an OJ with a clear photo!

Also gotta love when you can pick up a NM Babe

But since a NM Babe is not in my budget, I'll settle for this beater.

agreed, sweet pickup Steve!

[lharri3600]

[DanP]

two more HOF rookies.. (even though Farrel is not really Rick Ferrell)!


Dan

[docpatlv]

Richard (rman444),

I guess we cost each other some money, as I don't think anybody else was bidding seriously on these. I wondered who was outbidding me. As for the Plank, I think I'm hanging onto it for a little....sorry. I just had them framed last weekend. If I change my mind, I'll let you know first.

Mike

[tbob]

Thanks Michael the blue Cicotte has been a card I have searched almost 10 years for on line and at shows. Now that I am getting closer to completing the E94 master set the color variations I need are few and far between so I had to grab this card.

[rman444]

Mike - sounds good. Congratulations on the fantastic grab!

[Brian Van Horn]

Thank You, Andy and Thank You, Doug:

[bcbgcbrcb]

Dan P.:

Those are great pick-ups! Two of the more underrated HOF RC's as they are very tough to find.

Got this one in the mail today–thanks Larry!

[Vintagecatcher]

Picked up Carl Mitze's 1910 Obak tonight.


Patrick

[jb217676]

Two more in the mail today. Thanks Ron for the sweet Wagner and super fast international shipping!

[Robextend]

E91 Miller

[JamesGallo]

I was very excited to get this back from SGC today.



They will only be given authentic grades, but I was just happy to get this into a great looking slab.

James G

[bijoem]

James... that does look cool in a slab.

I agree!

BTW, when did SGC start slabbing those blankets?

[Tom S.]

I'm a couple of days late in posting this Jan. pickup from the B/S/T forum (thanks Iggyman!)...




Also, this card was a raw eBay purchase last month - but since it returned from grading yesterday, I'll call it a Feb. pickup anyway...

[obcmac]

Apparently no other eBay'ers thought this one was cool...but I think it's great!

[Robextend]

[jb217676]

Got this Hal Chase today:

[sox1903wschamp]

I was inspired for this little project by the "thekingofclout" or Jimmy who mostly posts on the Memorablia side and by the way has started many excellent threads on that side. Anyway, Jimmy has posted in the past an original Type I photo of Tris Speaker that is the same photo used for his E-145 (Cracker Jack) cards.

I always wanted to do something like that and always loved this pose of Mike Menosky so I picked up what I think is a Type I photo (I am a card guy but starting to get more into photos) to go with a few cards based off that image. Now to put it all together in a nice display

[paul]

Just arrived today.

[ScottFandango]

here is a card that doesnt come up that often on the BAY....E90-1 Ray Demmitt

[dstudeba]

Nice card, Paul!

Thanks to Jacklitsch and the BST.

[Anthony S.]

Down to 10

[bcbgcbrcb]

Brian:

Really nice DiMaggio for a "1"!

[joeadcock]

[chaddurbin]

god bless john spencer for my first e93 cobb about 8 years ago...

[yanksfan09]

I loved the image (kinda scary)...

[familytoad]

Erick and all...
Eddie Collins...he played ball for a quarter century so he is in a lot of sets...he seems to always look different too...but this W517 closeup isn't his most flattering!

This card and the sweet DiMaggio I shared above are my February pickups!

[Chesbro41]

Been looking for this one
