Very tough combo Waz, congrats!

Congrats Ben! The start of a wonderful journey.

Now that you have to start a college fund, lets talk....LOL

Picked up this T210 Lipe portrait. Combined PSA and SGC pop of 18

That wins the "best pickup of 2022" award, I'm going to start looking towards 2023.

Congrats.

While I'd happily add this card to my stable...I've always thought it kinda gross!!!

Nice pick ups DJ, congratulations.

I guess it is LOL...never thought about it in all of these years.

Picked this up on eBay thanks to a tip from a board member. Joe

That's cool, Joe.
I dabble in trade cards some and would definitely have scooped that one up.
Nice catch!
Ben

Not necessarily gross, but God knows where Ruth’s mouth was the night before. :)

like I said...GROSS!!!!!

Japanese Menkos
 

HOFer Katsumi Shiraishi and Jackie Tobin from the 1949 SF Seals Tour of Japan team.

Beautiful! I get jealous every time someone posts PC796s, especially ones as nice as yours. Congratulations!

Damn dude!!!! I need to step my PC796 game up.

so cool!
 

I love seeing obscure stuff like this! Congrats on your latest Louis Criger pickup, and thanks for sharing!

Thank You! This looks like a trade card in my scan but it is a larger item from a calendar page.

A few more pickups that arrived today. The orange border is from Sterling and the Bregstone from member Kawika who was so kind in allowing me the opportunity to buy it.

I'm guessing the Babe French kissed the girl's doll next.

Tin Top
 

I was finally able to land an E270 Tin Top for my team type collection...

Thrilled to add this one to the PC.

Nice Goudey Ruth

Nice pick up Scott, fantastic month for the board so far and its only the 11th.

Very nice Scott! Congrats!

Not really pre-war, but an unusual card of a pre-war player. This is a 1952 Toronto Maple Leafs team issued deckle edge postcard of the team's manager, Burleigh Grimes.

Congrats Joe!
 

Congrats Joe on picking up that cool Criger Bregstone PC from David!

Your Lou Criger collection is rounding out nicely!

Tougher combo

Chris, great example. And very bold for a P42 (they're usually printed a little lighter, as you know).

1949 SF Seals Tour of Japan Team
 

New addition ... Gene Brocker

Whoa, nice one Chris!

.

Great one, Val!!

Also, very nice, Chris. I like the bold back ink.

Nice pick up Val!

Thanks, Steve & Bob. Lots of really nice pickups thus far this month, especially T206s. But, my favorite is the Zeenut w/tab of Duffy Lewis.

103 down, 1 to go
 

Three recent pickups, now down to just 1 card (#122 Tenney NY) to finish the set! Jordan & Herzog is a BST pickup, thanks gooseman91. And a big thanks to jayshum for the BST heads up!! A Jennings with good eye appeal turned out to be a very tough get for me.

Great WaJo, Val! I hope to add one someday, it's a great looking card. Enjoy it!

Congratulations Chad, rooting for you to get that last one.

Nice pick-ups Val and Chad.

Chad

Bought raw in December… just back from SGC.

Chad, good luck finding the Tenney to complete your set. You've got a little over a week until we get to it in the T3 thread. :)

The recent E220 thread (from which I learned that all "true" E220s look like this) inspired me to pull the trigger on this Coveleski for my Cleveland HOF type card collection. Coveleski was also the last Cleveland HOF player for whom I didn't have a playing-career-era card.

Fantastic addition. He is a "tougher" Hall of Famer to the surprise of many. He's also in some fantastic sets (like the E220), but most of his cards are all the same pose which is somewhat annoying.

Congrats on completing the Cleveland portion of the Hall of Fame (for now)!

Thanks, Kyle!

Thanks Phil, Jay, and the other Chad! Jay, don't hold your breath on this last one, I have a feeling I'm in for a long search, considering my previous luck with 'last' cards :)

T213 Type 2 Tom Downey
 

Not too crazy, but excited to add this to my Buffalo PC. On the hunt for the Hal Chase and Russ Ford type 2s now… and the laundry list of other Buffalo tobacco cards I’m after!

Love it! Nice pickup.

Thanks, Chad!

I like adding T209 to the set but am getting antsy for a T210 want list hit lol. That said I really like the Chandler image.

Just added this Zach Wheat to the T206 Brooklyn set I’m building. This and a Kaiser Wilhelm from the same Greg Morris eBay auction get me to 14/27.

Never seen this one before...very cool Paul!

And Andrew, nice Branch Rickey V100! I just looked. I think I'm down to four V100s needed to complete the set...Rickey is one of them. If you ever see another and want to make a buck off me, just say the word.
