January Pickups

[Thromdog]

Didn't notice one so I guess I'll start it off???

Mr. Brashear came in the mail today.....making 214 EPDGs.

[TheBig6]

Haven't got these yet, but their bought and paid for.
A little Sterling action, thanks Lee for running a smooth auction

[tbob]

Almost completed the E98 master set.

[kdixon]

Picked up this Piedmont Art Stamp of Zach Wheat. I have collected Zach for over 30 years and this is the first one I have ever seen. Only 3 have been graded so I was very happy to pick this one up. Has been on my want list for a long time.

[Jason]

First T209-2 pickups in awhile. I believe they came from a board member.

[z28jd]

Just got these cards, which includes a Dots Miller silk to add to my player collection. Also got a Rip Sewell rookie..I guess? Can a matchbook be a rookie? The rest are the 1941 Double Player Pirates team set, and I bought the Klinger throwing pose separate on purpose because who wants a Cubs player in my Pirates team set.

Congrats Kenny! Very nice!

[Brian Van Horn]

Technically a December, but arrived today. Thank you, Greg.

That is awesome!!!!

[mybuddyinc]

Been on a nice HOF run

Jennings / portrait is somewhat interesting that it one would figure it "should" (150/350 print group) have a Sov.150 back, but does not. A candidate for an 150 early pull replacement ???

Also a BIG, BIG Thanks to Charlie (the exterminator) for a grand deal on Hindu Dahlen / Boston. Gave me another tough Hindu, and allowed me to pass on my EPDG example to some guy that collects EPDGs !!!!!!!

Fun Stuff, Scott

Awesome Kenny! I got my first Piedmont Art Stamps this month too. I'm happy calling this Cy Barger my Brooklyn type card until (if) a better one comes along. They've been tough to find.

gorgeous! I was thinking about dealving into the Piedmont Art Stamps once I completed the Helmar Stamp set...your example really gets my juices flowing and makes me think that I should start on that set sooner!!

As for the Helmars, I only have 23 remaining of the 180 total! Here are my pick-ups from late December/early January thanks to Net54 members who were willing to help me out:



Oh, and Ed, I still think your pursuit of the rebuilt Howe McCormick stamp collection is the unofficial set focus of the entire Net54 community. It's by far the most interesting endeavor!

[gregr2]

Wow, incredible pickups.

Damn Paul!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!

[iowadoc77]

Wow Paul! Need to close this thread no start a new one!
That Lajoie is simply amazing.
Fantastic cards!

[Luke]

Is this some sort of pre April Fools Day joke?

Nope. Really happened. Can't believe it myself.

[Luke]

Incredible. If you didn't already have the coolest collection ever, you do now. Congrats, hope you still have a place to live

[T206Collector]

I don't have a collecting budget for awhile. I am all tapped out -- went way beyond my comfort zone here. Felt it was a once-in-a-lifetime find.

[DeanH3]

Just can't resist these beauties.

[Jason Carota]

Amazing piece, Patrick. Congrats!

[Vintagecatcher]

Thanks Jason!

Can't wait to see it in a clean frame with museum glass.

Thank guys!

Paul - I agree 100%. The WaJo portrait gets a lot of attention, rightfully so. However, IMO, the Matty portrait is every bit as stunning.

Leon - nice T205's. Love the eye appeal.

[Kenny Cole]

Just completed a deal for this. Now to sell some stuff to pay for it. Otherwise my wife may kill me and bury my body in our back yard.

[abroome]

Help, I've fallen into the 19th century trap!
I've dabbled in the sepia before but I'm really loving OJs right now.

This is one of a few January pickups for me. Waiting on a few more to arrive.

Beautiful looking OJ Andy, congrats! Have you advanced to a decision on how you might attack 19th century cards?

Thank you.
No, no battle plan. Right now It's what catches my eye and is in my budget range.
One OJ I did just snag is the humurous Nicol/Reilly (long and short) card which is one I've wanted for a while. I'll post a pic of it when it arrives.

The Biel gets me down to 9 Series 7 cards to go. Thank you Tom for both additions. If anyone can help with a Series 7 card it would be much appreciated! Thank you great pickups everyone esp. like the signed cards.

[btcarfagno]

Waner Zeenut. Just because.

[x2drich2000]

Just got these in today. Thanks Jerry!

The Donovan is the only example I know of. I have also not been able to confirm it with a Nadja back, so this will work as a nice substitute. I am aware of only 2 Crawford's and this is by far the nicer of the 2. Crawford is also 1 of 2 HOFers I know exist with the red back. It is also a nice placeholder until I can find a Nadja for my set.

A little surprised when the grade came back but I love the photo quality.

Great pickups as of late, everyone. A big shoutout to Paul and Ben for helping me out with two items from my bucket list -- a T206 Dougherty purple portrait and my first Ginter N28--Mulvey! Thank you, guys!

[GregMitch34]

My first red Hindu.

This pair of cuff links was owned by Jack Bickett, who played with the Eau Claire Braves when they won the Northern League Championship in 1955.

I couldn't pass this one up. Looks so good. Back surface looks like minor ink smudging happened. I love picking up low graded CJs that look killer.

[KingFisk]

Excited to get my first Goudey issued card yesterday.

[KingFisk]

One more I picked up this week.

Memory Lane and ebay pick up

[sb1]

Very happy to get this one. Always buying or trading for them.

[pitchernut]

From the ad for one to the the one (trimmed down a bit). A bit more than six cents...
