Fun stuff, Scott :rolleyes:

Hey Ryan, it seems like we are going to end up with very similar collections. :)

Just added the Doerr Burke Postcard To The Pile

I've always liked that pose...Hank needed company....----I wanted just the " Burke Postcard" aspect of the item but it still looks okay even with the fountain-pen signature.It's not too intrusive.

..I'll add a scan of the backs for the guys who catalog all the different Burke postcard varieties...

Sweet Caporal sign
 

Not a card, but I thought it was a neat item. I was in Bisbee, AZ the past couple of days and I picked this item up. It is a door off a display case that was in the E.B. Wallace Pool Hall and Smoke Shop located at 26 Main St. in Bisbee. The only information that I could find about Wallace, is he came to Bisbee in 1906 at the age of 25 and died in 1965.

CJ Cobb
 

A lot of you guys reached out to me wondering why I was selling my CJ Cobb's. Some thought I was leaving the hobby and reached out to me. It was actually really nice to see the good guys on this board come out and show concern. Thankfully there was no cause for concern. I sold my 1914 and 1915 for this upgrade.

Nice, Orlando. :)

Wow. Sweet card. I do trust that, if you do decide to leave the hobby at some point, you'll have the courtesy of letting the board know via a new thread.

That's some nice waterfront property, Orlando.

Thanks Jake! It's not psa, but I hope you still approve.

Oh, Jeff! Thought you were someone else.

Sweet upgrade Orlando on a classic card. Brian, super rare Mall Theatre back card as it's the toughest back to get.

Scarce postcard from 1912 of Giants, marking World Series win. There's a 2nd version of this with names under team photo but no postcard back.

Thank you, Jay Cee.

Congrats Orlando
 

Beautiful CJ Cobb! Congratulations on 1 heck of a pick up Orlando.

PSA 5 T206 McGraw portrait with cap Lenox black back

Very nice Orly. Freakin wow!

Brian, great pickup, says me with envy, because me still needs a Mall Theatre for me type collection. Some day, me ship will come in!

Thank you, Val.

Great card! That would be a big upgrade for me!

Here's a sweet C.1920's Snapshot of Babe Ruth & friend!

I think Ruth just crushed that poor man's hand. Ouch!

My latest from Helmar--the Babe hurling for
Providence.

Been looking for a presentable, affordable version for some time

Very nice, Guys!
I currently have "0" Ruth items in my collection but I'd sure like to change that!

June pickups.
 

My first examples of either type. Also appears to be a crop mark to the left of the e92 front.

Great Cobb Orlando! Love the Caramel Ruth Neal!

I wish every Old Judge looked this good.

Almost finished with the E98 Master Set. The Blues were really tough.

Orly love that Cobby! It even has the red paintbrush effect in the top white border.

I picked this up recently from a very discerning (and turns out very patient) collector who told me he looked for 3+ years for just the right one. He schooled me on how hard it is to find these 51 Bowman without any back stains or print lines, have good registration and centering. Once I started really looking for one I quickly figured out how correct he was!

E94 Doolan
 

This card made it's rounds through the hobby and ended up back in my collection...

June Pickups
 

Jeff that is a cool Cobb. Congrats

Jeff, wow. You're killing with the Cobbs lately.

Great pickup Jeff.

This guy is on another thread, but I'm so happy with him he'll make an appearance over here too.

Super nice Mays rookie!!

Wow, Jeff, that Cobb Ju Ju Drums is fantastic!

Congrats on the pickup

Thank you, all!

This was the #1 card on my want list. I am absolutely thrilled to be able to check it off.

It's been too long...
 

Been a while since I had any pre-war pick-ups. A couple of minor additions to the collection:

One is a beauty, the other an absolute beast (beater), but tough to find an Evers Piedmont Fact 42 in any condition.

Great Cy, now about that Evers.....

I guess that it's lucky there was enough of the back left to see the factory number. :D

Luckily you can make out (barely) the "42" and you can see in upper left its clearly a 350-460. Otherwise, we would have to take SGC's word for it. Ugly card indeed

Beautiful Cy Young, Ryan.

Young
 

Nice Young
I think it was under graded.

Ron

Kenny - incredible pick-up! Congrats!!!!
