I just posted a video on my YouTube channel showing some of my recent pickups:

*Warning: Video is long but the Pre-War pickups are at the beginning**

Pickups:
-Large group of 1932 Zeenut cards (mostly without the coupons) but a few with including a pair of cards I need for my personal collection (I only need 4 cards for that set now: Collard, Mailho, Salvo, Walsh-Oakland)

-1940-1941 Wheaties "stamps" Large Lot

Other Pickups featured in the video but not pre-war:
-1961 Post Cereal Baseball Complete Set (200)
-Large Autographed card lot of 600+
-Fun group of rare vintage 1950's-1970's wrappers

Incredible Ruth postcard addition Jeff! Spectacular piece!


I started the year off trading for what may very well be my best addition to the collection!

So excited to upgrade this rare Cobb from my SGC 1.5 to this much nicer copy! Like Jeff I let go of several cards to get this one!

I posted these guys in the ML thread, but got them in hand today! Happy to repost in the official pickup post!

Ty Cobb Red Port Piedmont 42 back
Johnny Evers CHI Piedmont 42 back

I really like the 42’s and happy they don’t draw a ton of attention from some of the other back collectors.

Happy hunting,
Bob

Not crazy about the crease, but I like the bio on the back.

I like the factory 42's as well, they were one of the reasons I got dragged into this hobby. Don't worry, I have other priorities for my collection. :-) Congrats on the nice pickups!

I don't have many new pick-ups in a year anymore, let alone a month, but happy to get this one. Always looking for W600's!!!

Just wanted to share this pickup from a wonderful long-time board member (Hi Tony!), and I'm so grateful he reached out.

We're kindred spirits with our collectors' eye, and had a great time chatting and sharing our collections while we dealt on this card.

My collecting has narrowed down a lot over the last few years, to the point I've been working off a list of 30 cards I'm still hoping to find in the hobby.
This takes it down to 13, and every one off the list is a celebration!

Even better to have it come from a stellar Net54 board member. :)

Scott L. 01-23-2025 01:15 PM

Some fun cards added to my off back set. Up to 650 non Piedmont, Sweet Cap, Polar Bear combos.

Another John McGraw / Polo Grounds postcard arrived today. I’m really not trying to corner the market on these, I swear!

I’m really hoping I didn’t accidentally turn into a type card collector, before finishing any of my T206 goals! I’ve got to get back to the monster weeds before I end up deciding to put $ towards the random raw stack.

E102 Crawford, no creases, wrinkles or paper loss, so pretty happy with this one.

Love a Sunday mail truck!

Jerry, that Foxx is gorgeous. Nice grab.

TheBig6 01-26-2025 12:04 PM

Thanks Dean, picked that up yesterday at card show

paul 01-26-2025 03:54 PM

Why is that Foxx graded only VG?

I would guess the corner wear and surface staining, but I could be wrong.

Good question, back is clean, no creases front or back.

Beautiful card! Haven’t seen that one before
