June Pickup Thread
 

Thought I'd go ahead and start June off with a bang. Circa 1905 Joe Tinker Moffett Studios studio photograph. Signed in red/pinkish pencil "Moffett" bottom right hand corner.

Wow Calvindog, I'd take that Altoona Tribune SGC 40 McGraw over 99% of SGC 50's, and I'd say it presents better than most SGC 60's!

Let's continue with the Tinker theme. Polar Bear back.

No Tinker, but a Chance & 3 others just back from SGC.

June Pickups
 

http://i659.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/scan0001.jpg

Picked these up then sent them to PSA. Just got these back and I think they under graded the '57 Mantle. You can't really see it in the scan but there is 1/16" white border on the left so the card is not miscut in my opinion it is off center. The back is centered, card is clean no wrinkels - sharp corners...

These just arrived today. Thanks to Tim at Joe's Vintage for the great deal. I think both are undergraded (the Krause has a tiny tear at the bottom and the Speaker has a pencil mark on the back). Yay for me!

That's about the coolest thing I've seen.

Picked this one up off of eBay. It's a 1903 Cabinet of Harry Howell while playing for the 1903 Highlanders. What's special about this cabinet is that it is an original photo of an original Yankee.

(Not the same card, but the only picture I could get on the thread)
Running out to the mailbox every day to see if this guy shows up...

Perfect for a name dropper like me!

Just back from Beckett, this is a very tough to find 1879-80 NY Clipper Woodcut of HOF'er, Roger Connor...................

I rarely buy cards but I needed this one to display with my TYPE I photo...

sweet photo Tony!

Like the Howell and postcards a lot too.

I picked this up last night on ebay. I all ways wanted this card, but couldn't afford the higher end prices. This is a good looking PSA 1 compared to others I have seen.

I though I got a good deal on this one.

thats a real nice PSA 1.. should be a 2

Great looking card Paul!

Thanks, guys. I have been monitoring these cards for about two months, saw this card, and jumped on it. It may say PSA 1, but from the scans, it presents as a lot better than the other PSA 1's I have seen. I will let you knoe when I get it in person.

Regards,

Paul

This just arrived today:

Thanks muchly to a couple of N54 brethren for these humdingers. The JKA Wildfire is way nicer than the scan - much more grey than sepia; the '15 Zeenut Spider fills the final puka in my run from 1911-1938 (and is crying for an SGC slab).

Coupon Type One
 

Got this in the mail this morning...I consider it a T206 and will go in my stack of rare backs accordingly.

Nice Pick Ups
 

David - That Wagner is rarely seen. Strong 2 - Beautiful !
Chris - Nice Type 1 ! Love the Coupons...

I snagged this Series 8 Frenchmen last night for the back. I have never seen a Series 3 back on a Series 8 Front. Very interesting to me... Plus, I have a Pepe (tough card) with the correct back... Still Love the T210's !!

Managed to get one card last night in Goodwin's auction. The tiny fleck of color loss which kept it at PSA 5 (2nd highest graded ever) probably saved me a ton of money.

Chris,
Nice Huggins Type 1. It is fun to watch as some cards make the circle of life between collectors. I know the last 6 owners of that card, and I am the fouth in the line of six that I know of.
He is a special one!

Hope all is well,
Bob

I was happy to add this card:

A few recent pick-ups (especially happy about the Al Lopez!)

I'm pretty excited about my first card of the great King Kelly . In his Beaneater days, as catcher. Love those gloves!
