[mrreality68]

Proudly adding this to my Ruth Family

[BabyRuth]

recent pick up

[Casey2296]

Great Ruth pick ups Jeff & Jim, congratulations, starting the month strong.

This trimmed beauty completes my T207 set. Although this one came from an auction, many of the final cards I needed were acquired through Net54's B/S/T. Thanks for the help.

Congrats on finishing such a tough set!

As this 1937 Wheaties Series 9 panel of Bonura shows, fielding can be an uphill battle.

I really do like many of the far out designs seen in Series 9.

Congrats on finishing such a substantial set. I'm sure that felt great to cross the last one off the list.

Cheers,
Steve

Congrats to all, especially completing the t207 set. Jeff, you have had a nice week!

I am not even sure what this is. But it’s old and it’s Wagner, so I’ll take it

[MVSNYC]

Great stuff, Guys! Ryan, love that Wagner piece.

Picked this Proof up, unknown player.

Just an uncut 36 card 1952 Topps sheet. Not the greatest shape but rare nonetheless.

Say it ain't so Joe! Proof positive that it is best to pick up unknown T206's at the beginning of April.

This is literally insane. Wow

[Bicem]

Cool Wags piece Ryan.

[MVSNYC]

Guys, this was an April Fools joke we played here on Net54 10+ years ago…me, Wonka, Joe D, and I think Barry was in on it too.

Thanks Leon, I've been staying off the boards and auction sites for a few months while looking for and buying a new house. This made up for the time away.

Congrats Jesse, buying a house in California and an early Ruth at the same time is quite an accomplishment.

[mrreality68]

Wow and Wow to Jesse and Ryan

And a Great and Fast Start to the Forum

[Mark]

It's only the 2nd of April, and you guys already have posted a bunch of centerpiece cards. I added one to my Collins McCarthy collection.

Yea housing market has the same problem right now as a lot of these prewar cards in many places, OC included. More buyers than sellers. Very happy to get both done.

Ryan I've never seen or even heard of that particular Wagner before, but it looks great!

Great pickup, Jesse! My favorite Ruth image.

Nice cards everyone!

[Rhotchkiss]

Huge card Jesse, congrats! And good to see you post- don’t wait for the next major Ruth pickup to post again

[VintageBen]

I’ve been doing some upgrading on my PC796 set over the past few weeks!!!

Very nice Ben. Congrats.

These are from LOTG last night- great auction!!

[MVSNYC]

Ryan, sick!

Got this in LOTG...(great auction, Al!)...

My dad and I used to go up to Cooperstown every year (we actually liked going in the winter, we had the town to ourselves). One of our trips, we bought a low condition Cobb Bat On at Mickey's Place, but it's long gone...So, I'm glad to pick this example up, as it reminds me of my Dad, and those trips.

[mrreality68]

Great Pickup as always Ryan. I was the underbidder on that Wagner. Congrats

Nice eye appeal on the Cobb

Here is my pickup from LOTG

[JimC]

Beautiful cards, guys. Ryan is right, LOTG was loaded again.

Here's mine.

[Wanaselja]

I just knew Ryan was on that Thorpe.
Great Speaker Jim.
This is my haul. I got really luck on the E126. Went to bed around midnight the high bidder. Randomly woke up at 2:44am ET, saw I was outbid and got my winning bid in with 0:30 seconds to go.

Ryan, I'm not a T206 guy but am curious about your thoughts on the 520 set that sold last night.

[benge610]

In the small fish pool,
I picked up the battery mate for:
my E98 color run catcher, Johnny Kling.

Maybe a "battery-mate" color run is in my collecting future, lol.
(You know, being a silly die-hard Cub fan and all)

Congrats Ben, nice pick up.
