Jaunty W600.

There's Only One Christy That I Know At All...
 

...One Christy that I ever saw...
...He's the one who discovered the fade-away ball...
...and he pitches for Muggsy McGraw.

If Old Man Columbus had sat in the stands...
...had seen Matty pitching that fader so grand...
...he'd have said, "Boys, I'm glad I discovered this land!"

Gee, what a wonderful game!


"Poor Man's" Signed T206 (autograph of wife Jane Mathewson):

Thanks for showing that, Phil.

Shameless plug.....I am on the lookout for one of the Gazette photos if anyone knows where one is for sale?? :)

a little well loved.....
 

one of my favs....

Me to Leon! If I find it first maybe we could talk trade for the smaller version...

I knew when I started this tread that I would have to be prepared with some kind of calming element... I can't even tink right now... I'm gunna go lay down for a spell...

That Matty was for you Chris:)

Den, would you consider that Matty for Erick??since he lost out on Cobby?? Just a thought....;)

Matty is one of my faves...
 

few of his examples in my collection....

I do feel Terrible about that deal... So please go easy on me...
This one however, is part of my Matty Collection and I do Think it was more of a Cobby Book end thing with Erick!?. I Still have eyes pealed for the other Cobb Miscut for him!

It's a nice thought though :)

matty
 

Den,

Thanks for considering, i didn't want to put you on the spot like that in your own thread with all due respect:o.....if u ever decide to part with it please let erick know:D....i know how it is to part with cards and i hardly ever do:o....just that erick is such a great guy i want to find him these rarities:)

please keep your eyes peeled for them:D

peace
johnny

Mathewson Bucknell Yearbook
 

Hi! Does anyone have a Bucknell yearbook that pictures Christy Mathewson?
I have been looking for one for awhile.
Thanks, Andy Sandler alwysyakn@aol.com

scans
 

Hey Stefan,
Why don't you shoot me a PM (Private Message) and I will help you to be able to post scans. Most times it's the wrong file type or way, way too large of a scan. The system will minimize scans to fit unless they are enormous, then it craps out.

Andy,

There's 2 on eBay right now.

Late
 

Here is another one.
