Real happy to have added this one. When I sell off my collection, I'll be keeping all the 1/1 PCs; this is one of them.

wow...perfect for your collection, Jeff. I feel like whenever I see a card from that set I'm seeing it for the first time...they are RARE!

Some huge additions Jeff! Congrats!

Aaron, when we had our all-too-brief reunion at Tom's table, and I snagged a T206 Cobb bat on PSA3, a card which had become my National Quest, you quietly pulled the red bkg Lenox Tyrus out of your back pocket About all it lacked was a brown Lenox back, which probably is impossible anyway. Man, did Red Zone have some Cobbs and that set of '14 CJ's was tasty. When I thought you were going to buy the Jackson, I had to walk away. Keep in touch.

Here's a cool one. It's a 1944 Snapshot of Joe DiMaggio taken in Honolulu, Hawaii during WWII when he was playing for the 7th Army Air Force Baseball Team. Thanks Stephen!

That's an awesome photograph. My grandfather served in the AAF in the Pacific Theater but he couldn't hit as well as Joltin' Joe, so he saw a little more action. :D

Jumping in with Dan. Don't want to get left out of the potential Gehrig exhibit type run up on this one. Plus it's just a cool looking card with the white borders and b/w photo..not to mention the cool loaf of bread on the back. Jackie says: "I get a double play in Homogenized Bond. It tastes grand and packs plenty of energy."
Jackie most definitely never said that. lol

Decent card AJ!!! 😆. Seriously though, great pickup. Not sure about the Gehrig Exhibit style run but a '51 Bowman Mantle run in the short term seems fairly reasonable and if not you have the true RC of possibly the most influential athlete of all time. Win, win

Well we all can't have SGC 4's. :-)

Had no idea this card existed until earlier this week. That's why I love reading these boards!

Great looking photo...and a Foxx for my Delong set.....about 1.5 generic letters on the back are missing from paper loss :)....
