Off back mania continues

Thanks, Derek. I’m planning on holding onto the Rickey, but if that ever changes, I will let you know.

Very pleased to get a score card from the 1924 World Series--the only one the Senators (and Walter Johnson) ever won. Has some cool pictures of Walter Johnson, Goose Goslin and Sam Rice. Thank you to Lee/Sterling Sports Auctions!

Added another to my WaJo back run. Member pick-up.

Charles, nice pickup! Although Lee/Sterling called this a score card, it is actually a 1924 World Series program (the Washington version).

It seems to be a little of both--like a really elaborate Scorecard/Program. As you can see in the first picture, it does say "Official Score Card" on the front, and if you click on the flickr link, it shows the Scorecard for the Senators. Interestingly, on the cardboard that Sterling/Lee used to protect it, is written "1924 W.S. Program"

In one of Goldin's auctions, they called what I bought a "World Series Program Scorecard": https://goldinauctions.com/1924_gian...-lot14648.aspx
while Heritage has also called it a ScoreCard: https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c...Auction-120115 as has the Smithsonian: https://americanhistory.si.edu/colle...t/nmah_1347772
Meanwhile, Mile High called it a Program: https://www.milehighcardco.com/1924-...-lot32219.aspx but calls it an "official scorecard" in their description.

Goldin Auctions had a lot in one of their other auctions that they titled "1924 World Series Program" that appears to be the equivalent, but for game 5 at the Polo Grounds, and which has a scorecard for the Giants.https://goldinauctions.com/LotDetail...entoryid=11489 So did REA: https://robertedwardauctions.com/auc...s-program-game

So perhaps it is a Program that has a scorecard?

1927 Zeenut Series
 

My first Zeenuts. A few beaters but neat cards nonetheless.

Very nice zeenuts

My poor cards. The Holsum arrived in today and a couple others that arrived earlier this month.

Nice Baker card. Some highlights from the Buchner collection auctioned earlier tonight by DavidBV. I crossed some off my list and am making good progress on this set.

These are all SUPER cool! Congrats on your progress.

Another great month for board members. Here is a 1936 Grape Nuts premium..

Added some new Cobb portraits this month.

Very nice Cobbs

Congrats Michael

Thanks Jeff

Those are phenomenal. Congrats.

I barely want to show my beat up T213-2....

Thanks, Ethan. Nice one, Leon, the double-named T213-2's are good for researching the year or years a card could have been released, in this case, 1914 or 1915.

Thanks Leon! Great cards you have

Awesome! Congrats!!

Picked up another W554, down to needing just Fonseca to finish the set.

Joe, your Criger collection is really coming along. Congrats on the latest pickups!

P13 Luxello Cigar Pin
 

I've been wanting to add an example from this tough pin set for a long while since it fits my A's/Phillies type collection from the dead ball era. Was happy to finally pick one up for the collection this month.

Judging from the fact that the Barry pin wasn't one of the 22 examples from the Paul Muchinsky collection that were sold in the most recent Hake's auction, I would surmise that Barry might be an extra tough common in what can already be considered a scarce pin set.

Another Ruth card that used to be readily available on ebay for a fraction of what they go for now...I added this beaten up badboy to the stable...along with this stereoscoptic thing.

Just got this W502 of "Goose" from Greg Morris via eBay. Even though GM sells zillions of cards, I think this is my first purchase from GM.

I really wish this card was of Sam Rice, instead of Goose Goslin, as I need a W502 of Rice with this back and also with the THREE BAGGER back for my master Sam Rice card collection. Can anyone help?

Great stuff, Pete. You've been really picking up a lot of Ruth items recently.

Speaking up beaten up pickups, I recently picked up this very rough notebook.

Thx Gary...and right back at you!!!! Gorgeous notebook cover...I've never seen that one before?

Thanks, Pete. The notebook is barely holding together, but I still had to get it because I'd never seen it before. (The seller still has one more copy that he wants to keep for himself so it's not unique.)

"Shortstop"

I just finished my e93 set. Proud of it so it’s the first thing I registered with psa. Barely eeked across the 3.0 grade line. Lowest rated complete set but 4 out of 4 isn’t too shabby! Love them.

Picked this PC up recently
 

Got this Nap recently...

Thank you. I have been very fortunate and have had a lot of help from people here. Beautiful Pin Pickup! Joe

Wow that's a beautiful piece, Chris. Congrats!

Thanks to our Net54 community, I been able to add some new additions to my set i am working on.

Beyond thrilled to add this E107 Cy Young to my collection.

Nice Young Andrew...Jerry

+1 great pick up

Chris, those are awesome. Didn't know you were working on the Big Heads. Would love to see your set so far.

Big mail day for me. Not the nicest Wheaties, but if you've seen BIN prices, people have gone bat poop crazy with prices. This came up for auction and I knew that I'd get it for a great deal. I also knew that it would look great behind Rajah! And sure enough it does. Poor Foxx, though, he got stuck in the worst position.

Seller was Teamwirk on ebay, he had postcards BIN if anyone is interested.

Very nice Andrew! It couldn't have ended up in a more appropriate home

Michael, those Cobbs are beast

Really great display.

Hardly impressive next to most of the things on this thread, but I'm happy to have picked this up from DavidBV on ebay.

Picked up this beauty.

E107 Cy Young
 

Jerry and Jeff, much appreciated! Ryan, huge thanks for giving me the opportunity to buy the card that will now be the cornerstone of my prewar Red Sox collection!

I just obtained what almost certainly will be my Pickup of the Year 2022 for my master set of Sam Rice cards. I noted this 1-of-1 1921 Queen City Cigar Store card in the SGC pop report several years ago, but I figured my chances of ever acquiring it to be less than "slim and none."

Now then, perhaps I can get a hot streak going. There are 2 other similar Rice cards issued around the same time by West Coast companies, that I've noted in the pop reports, and that I'd love to add to my Rice collection, if possible - they are a Keating Candy and a Witmor Candy Type 2 (has the vertical ad back). If anyone can help me locate either of these cards, I'll be most appreciative.

Great card, Val. Congrats!

never seen this...WOW!

Great pick-up Val!

Nice, buddy! Congratulations!

HOLY CRAP VAL!! That pickup is awesome on many levels. Your pickup of 2022 indeed! Congrats
