What Are You Looking For In 2019

[ksfarmboy]

Thought today was a good time to start this thread. We usually do one each year. You can be as specific as you want. Tell us what you are looking for and hope to add to your collection for 2019.

Mine are as follows:
Hope to add a couple 19th century baseball items to my Kansas collection.
Get 1-2 70’s-80’s Orioles game jerseys.
Acquire 1-2 game used bats of fellow Kansans.
Find the Boog Powell and Frank Robinson 1970’s Orioles pinbacks.

At least 20 cards for my 1962 Jell-O set, PSA 9 86 Fleer Jabbar Sticker, 8.5 Uecker rookie, as many NM or better cards to my 1961 Topps raw set!
Happy New Year!

I want to:

1) finish the sets I'm working on, with the exception of the '61 Topps. That one is a long-term project.

1a) find the rest of the hi number All-Stars from the '61 set.

2) find and acquire a presentable Billy Pierce '59 Bazooka.

3) an Old Judge, any Old Judge, in decent shape of a player in a fielding pose. These are all over eBay and I've seen a number of them here but I've always had something 'ahead' of it in line. I plan to make this a priority this year.

Great thread. Thanks KS!

I still have to get a couple of Pirates bats from the 20's--and there are also a couple more iffy ones that I'd like to upgrade. That's the thing about pre-war, pro-model bats: you never know when one will come along!

Some HOF highest graded autographed rookies!

[Scott Garner]

For me it's a similar list every year.
Always looking for vintage no-hitter tickets that I'm missing.
If I could add 1-2 new ones in 2019, I would consider that a successful year.

Additionally I would love to find one of the 17 obscure early no-hit pitcher signature's that I am still looking for.

I also would like to find 3-5 new Nolan Ryan pitching appearance tickets that I still need. Current I only need tickets to 48 of Nolan's 807 career regular season pitching appearances.

I'm still looking for a Pat Jarvis game used bat (pitcher for ATL and MONT). This is the last bat that I am looking for in order to complete a long time project that I have been working on.

Finally, I'm always in the market looking for obscure/ oddball items related to Johnny Vander Meer's career in baseball.

Happy New Year to everyone on net54. I hope you all find the items that are on your individual 2019 want lists.

Great topic.

For 2019 I'm looking for to sell everything I own except for my handguns and supply of bottled water and dried food.

[slidekellyslide]

My list is the same every year.

-Something/anything I don't already have for pre-1961 Lincoln, NE minor league teams.

-Something/anything I don't already have for the Nebraska Indians.

-Any Nebraska Cornhuskers football related real photo postcards.

-Autograph insert cards of Gretzky, Tom Brady, Jordan and other big names.


Outside of sports memorabilia I also collect Lincoln, Nebraska postcards...I have over 5,000 different, I'd like to add 25 to 100+ more this year.

Happy New Year and good luck to all Net54 members!

Looking for 1962 Ford Motor Company Detroit Tigers postcards. A few (Larry Osborne, Terry Fox and Don Mossi) can be routinely found on eBay but some of the others are tough find.

This year I'm going to concentrate on a couple of different areas.
1. On a monthly basis, I'll be trying to add to my single signed HOF baseballs and my single signed 1955 Dodger single signed baseballs.
I'll also try to pick up small signed items that can fill out my memorabilia room shelves, like signed cards or small photos (with the emphasis on historical accomplishments/events in baseball). Any additional monthly money will go to framing and display costs.
2. Excess money (B-day etc) will go to finish up my 1934 Cardinal project.
Overall, I'm going to try to be a bit more active in the hobby this year.

[Lordstan]

1) Any of the signed 1934 Goudeys I need.
2) Lou Gehrig items.

Add a couple of new KC OJ’s to my collection.

[ksfarmboy]

Rob are you trying for all poses or just one of each KC player?

[Mark70Z]

I’m a tad late in responding, but I’d like to add a few things this year. I mainly collect Brooksie items, but may try to shoot for at least one cool Orioles displayable item:

1. Upgrade some Brooks cards. When I first started to collect I just picked up anything to fill the spot and should have been a little bit more picky on condition.

2. Been working on a Brooks autographed run (in pen) and like to add a few more nice examples. Still need the ‘57 so that’s 1st on my list if I can locate a nice example.

3. Like to locate and purchase a ‘66, ‘69 or ’83 cardboard Orioles sign.

If you see or have any unique Brooks items please let me know.

Hey Clint,

I’m just working towards one of each player but not excluding additional poses if the price is reasonable. Also I am currently just working on the players wearing KC uniforms.
