May pickups
 

Very happy to pick up these 3 Speakers.:)

It's great to be back
 

Last night was a lot of fun... now it's time to go back into hiding/saving up mode.

Gulp
 

Holy Heck Aaron!
That's a way to step back up to the plate!
What a great haul of classic, important cards!
Congrats!

Awesome haul Aaron. The T213 Cobb is Beast. Congrats

Wow!! I was high bidder on that E104-2, till you grabbed it late. Great pick up. Love the E103, and blue M116 as well. Congrats!

.. Once I was out on E104 Wags, I re-allocated my bid $$ to this lot (one reason I like when lots end together instead of individually). Have really wanted a signed Hornsby for a long time. Beat up or not I'm very happy with it, and the others. Glad to have the Vance as well.

Re- Hornsby, would be curious what some of the autograph guys thought of that Diamond Stars lot w/ Hornsby ("Auction LOA's").

I've been super busy lately and completely forgot I bought this until I opened my mail last night...

Needham? Got 'em,. Carl Horner cab. http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1493784325

The Collins-McCarthy Joe Jackson is a Monster then!

Brian- That's a great group of NY cards! Congrats!

Thank you, Raymond.

Obviously not vintage, but perhaps of some interest to HOF collectors: Signed 2002 Atlanta Braves team photo. Just happy to have SOMETHING of this new inductee.

Super nice Greg!

Super Pumped !!

I usually wait until I have card in hand, but I'm so excited with this one.

Just got back from PSA and taken out of a scrapbook.

Those look like they could use a bath

+1, of that scrapbook falls off, you scored !

worth much much more after a good bath!

Beautiful cards. I'd soak those in a heartbeat.

Happy to pick up a 1933 George C. Miller type 2 of Dean. Bad scan, looks better in hand.

Just added these. Gee, wonder if I can get all the Lionel Carter cards? :D

Great looking cards for the grade!

Wanted this one for quite awhile--cool, important guy and great image and color--and really happy to pick up as my sole Zeenut "type." Also it is highest graded. Plus: I knew he had played for Brooklyn, and went on to be a famous PCL manager--but did not know his semi-groundbreaking views on color barrier:

I got my Bancroft from the same guy. I was all set to snipe this one, until you did. It is a beauty, congrats.

Glad to add this to my type collection.

........... very happy with these .............. :)

Fun stuff, Scott :rolleyes:

Nice pickup for MY month (my last name is May). Got this bad boy from right here on Net54. Hyped!

Picked up my first-ever Helmars. I know not everyone's cup of tea--and obviously not really mine--but thought I'd give them a try. Would only be interested in the cabinet size, partly for display purposes,and these did not disappoint--gorgeous, 8 x 10 and thicker than T3s, hefty. As you know, they added distressed look and rounded corners, but well done. Cobbie and Baker:

A few Obaks for me from a fellow board member. Thanks, Stuart! I am really liking these cards!

Really nice Obak's. If I wasn't focused on T206's, I'd be collecting Obak's. Mainly because theres 3 series, different front/back combos, different subject numbers, with frames/without frames, with back stamps/without back stamps. More bang for your buck on Obaks as well.

Holy crap! What a steal! How did I miss that auction! I was watching the McCredie that's Greg won and read up on McCredie's back-story written by Brian Campf (RIP) on SABR. Walt McCredie was a very interesting dude. That Zeenut really sticks out to me as well. Great grab.

Thanks! I am enjoying them.

That is awesome!!!!!

Another 14 CJ off the list

New Favorite Card
 

I am stoked!!!

Always interesting to see where board members are focusing their efforts . . .

These are two that recently made it into my HOF collection. Both were downgrades per the grades on the flips -- which is not uncommon for my collection.

Snagged this 1941 Play Ball - Joe DiMaggio - #71 today:

Here's something you don't see everyday! A 1939 "The Hartnett Club" Banquet Ticket In Honor Of Leo "Gabby" Hartnett (Monday, August 21, 1939).

Two more Tinkers down, the latter -- the elusive Piedmont 350-460, factory 42 -- means this project is well within reach (thank you Adam!). Still need a Tinker Bat off AB and an EPDG, and could use a blank back

Brian, nice pickups! I was watching the Indy Brewing-Lajoie card - Nice! Don't forget to pay for them before midnight Pacific time to get your 8% eBay bucks.

Thank you, Val. I guess I am the only guy here that doesn't use eBay bucks. :o

Wow, Brian, tough Thompson card! Congrats

Thank you, Marc.
