Scott S

Sorry, didn't mean to put card comment before you.

No card on this earth is better than a human being. Congratulations.

No worries - certainly not taken that way at all!

Appreciate the outpouring of great comments here, both in the thread and via a few PM's as well. Life just got more challenging but a lot more exciting at the same time!

Now, back to our regularly scheduled pickup thread!

And Pete - incredible to see your Joe Jackson - I never even saw that one before. It would've been worth trading the house for it if you had to!

Another amazing pickup Pete, congrats.

September Pickup
 

A welcomed addition to my collection. Isaac Murphy, considered the greatest Jockey of all time. He was the first jockey to win three Kentucky Derbies, and the first jockey inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, NY.

Dig the black stockings and uniform piping! This makes two from 1886, tied for my oldest types.

That is a pretty tough card, nice! Congrat's!

I wonder why?:rolleyes:

Picked up another weird T209 that I cant find any info about the player actually ever being on the roster. Quite a few T209/T210 like that. I guess they were just in the right place at the right time trying out.

Some T201s - Thanks Monster Cards/Tony!
 

Thanks to Tony from Monster Cards for these T201s.

I picked up some other cards at the show today in St. Louis

Nice pickup on the Otto Miller
 

Brian,

Nice pickup on the Otto Miller Cycle T207.

Maybe SGC will correct the name on their label?

Tell them to turn it over next time!

Patrick

Patrick,

LOL. Thank you. Yeah, I thought that left a little to be desired on SGC's end. I have to admit I will leave the error alone because I do not deal with grading companies. Any cards you see graded in my posts someone else submitted.

Its nice making friends with board members that help with my collection. You make recognize these cards from Leon's collection. I'm very excited to place these with my growing collection. September has been an awesome month with about 20 more cards on their way.

Little Lily is in great company!
In case you don't follow the 20-49 section of BST, here's my latest arrival:

This one finally got here, after some USPS snafus:

Fatty!!
 

got me a Fatty! Thanks Robert for this whale. I have been looking for this card for at least 10 years. Other than the one on eBay, I can't remember one for sale. Anybody have the pop report on these? Thanks!

Jeff W.

Someday, someday. Nice!

Love the artwork on this one.

So he is one of the key cards in E90-1 ? (honest question)

Yes, the Graham is one of the rarities. Mitchell being #1 and Sweeney and Graham next in line. There are a number of rarities in the set and it has been debated as to the actual ranking. I believe the Shean card is up there with the Sweeney and Graham and maybe the Speaker.

Congrats on that Graham Andy! A particularly beautiful 30.

Thank you! Such a fun set to chase.

Well, I'm on track to have 30 new cards by my 32nd birthday on the 30th of this month (23/30). After already picking up T206 Mike Mitchell Tolstoi, E100 Tennant, T204 Bancroft twins (Ramly and Blank Backs), and a Larry Doyle Successful Farming this month I received my first group of Zeenuts and Colgans' plus a nice Peckinpaugh from Rhett yesterday.

(These will not me my last Zeenuts. They are pretty awesome and will be proudly displayed with the rest of my collection.)

It's Been A While....
 

My first pre-war pick-up in quite some time. This was always my favorite T207. Like the pose, and find child-like humor in the spelling of his name. Finally found one in the grade I was looking for, and at a reasonable price.

E135 & E121 Ruth
 

My other couple pickups for the month...

Pete, your killing me with your Ruths. Sweet!

Holy cow, Pete, this is an incredible month you're having! Great cards!

Sick Pete.

Thanks guys! It really was a super expensive month for me.

Ho hum, average month Pete. All kidding aside, those are some incredible cards!!!

Congrats Scott to you and your wife on your newest arrival!! You have the pickup of the month hands down...

I may have to disagree with you on this. I'd take a nice Drum back over a whole lot of human beings i've met :)

Added a few t206s

I agree Steve, nothing tops Scott's pickup for the month, congrats again!

Grover Cleveland Hartley T207
 

Thanks to Dave F. for this nice Grover Cleveland Hartley T207 from the B/S/T thread.

Patrick

Wow!
Amazing stuff Pete.
Love the Jackson :)

Nice bundle of Ruth cards Gary :D

I now have a reputation to uphold and I will never look at Bounty the same way again. :D

Here's card 24 for September. Number 25 is at the post office and 26 is on its way. 27-29 are being held awaiting payment. Just need to pick out card 30. I'm almost thinking about adding 2 more to make 32 since that's the age I'll be turning this year. This could be an annual thing if this year works out I will of course add one card for each year I gain in age.

Billiard was on the team roster for the 1912 Columbus Senators.
Thanks Jason for my first T210 Orange Border!!
