Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>I was very psyched about this E93 Evers with a yellow background. It should have a very strong orange background - like the example to the right. This is the first E93 color variation I have seen after looking at literally more than a thousand E93s over the years.<br />JimB<br /><br /><img src="http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/9262/e93eversyellowej5.jpg"> <img src="http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/1210/e93everspsa8nbw1.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Jim - Great card! I really enjoy seeing those caramel cards that missed color passes during their original print runs. I can't remember seeing any other e93s like this either. It seems that back when Mastro had their e93 and e97 uncut sheets or blank backed cards up for auction, a card or two might have had a player with an abnormal jersey or skin color but nothing like that Evers. <br /><br />I wonder why Mastro didn't include a mention of that missing color palette in the title of the auction?<br /><br />Here are a few cards I won just now. I actually won this lot for the zeenuts it had so these three might be tradeable.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1214970614.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Hey Dan,<br /><br />I knew you had these two (I remember trading you a rough Nagle e99) so I didn't bother contacting you ahead of time. Cripes, I guess I should have. I guess you and I are back to clobbering each other over the PCL stuff eh? <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Jim- Congrats on the E93 Evers. I stayed with you for a long time on it but bailed because I have enough sets with color variations like the E94 <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> Really a nice card and the background color and I think you got a nice deal and a sweet card.<br /><br />Brian- If you think you might want to trade or swap the Nagle, let me know.<br />tbob

Posted By: <b>JP</b><p>I picked up the Broad Leaf 350 Huggins. Paid through the nose for it, but it is a rare back, hall of famer, that really is in PSA 6 or 7 condition if not for the up/down OC, which doesn't bother me in the least. Just a beautiful card to look at.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1215036352.JPG">

Posted By: <b>quan</b><p>did anyone from the board win this lot? i've been tracking/collecting these for a year and since all the big whales have higher grades i didn't think anybody else was interested...the autobid was pretty high as i bid from $650 to $850 and then gave up. you can email me if you don't want to reveal ur superior bidding technique here <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Denny Walsh</b><p>JimB, Love the Evers! By the way, whose PSA 8 is that(Yours too?)?<br /><br />JP, I'm in total agreement with you! That BL Huggins is simply amazing...... The Card actually looks very complete, top to bottom offset doesn't take anything at all away from the Card imho. <br /><br />Can we see a scan of the back?<br /><br />Life's Grand,<br />Denny Walsh

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Paul:<br /><br />Another nice Novelty Cutlery postcard there. How many more for the set?<br /><br /><br />By the way, I picked up the 1902-04 Nap Lajoie Seed Co. Trade Card.

Posted By: <b>John E</b><p>If anyone here picked up the Milwaukee Brewers Grand Studio sets, I'd be interested in the '45 set (if you planned on breaking up the lot). I also have a few dupes to trade.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I have the companion piece to the one you bought...very cool card. I bid but didn't go too high as I already have a similar (not exact) one....

Posted By: <b>Rob D.</b><p>Congrats on that Lajoie pick-up, Phil.<br /><br />And please accept my apologies.

Mastro pickups
 

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Phil - I believe that the Lajoie Seed Card can be nailed down to 1902 which is the first year he played for Cleveland, and the last year that the company was still in business prior to being purchased by Eastman Kodak.<br /><br />Congrats on the great pickup!

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Phil, congrats on the Lajoie seed card, but I don't know that card at this time. Also, I need five more Novelty Cutlery for the set.

Posted By: <b>Bob B.</b><p>By any chance, did anyone here pick up the Wagner Zinn-Beck bat?

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Thanks, guys.<br /><br />Leon:<br /><br />Would you be kind enough to post a scan of your card?<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>scott brockelman</b><p>Jim,<br /><br />If you recall I posted a pair of E93's with the 2 different backgrounds a couple of years ago of Gibson. I may still have photos. I do have the cards as well.<br /><br />Scott

Posted By: <b>Kenneth A. Cohen</b><p>This Mastro pickup coincides with a 6-year effort to complete the E120 set. I received the last (240th) card in the mail today. Probably paid way too much for the albums, but - what the hell! <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1215128057.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1215128214.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Kenneth -- Though I am not terribly familiar with the set (or those albums), I would say they are a spectacular 'finishing touch' to your set. What does the inside of them look like?<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Richard.

Mastro pickups
 

Posted By: <b>Kenneth A. Cohen</b><p>Richard,<br /><br />The set consists of 15 players from each of the 16 teams. Each album has 8 pages, one for each team. Each page has 15 rectangles with each player's name, on which the card was to be glued. Needless to say, I won't be glueing the cards into the album. Also, the team manager's name is at the top of the page. <br /><br />Regards, Ken

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Thanks for the explanation, Ken. Obtaining those albums seems like the perfect way to complete the set. Too bad there isn't some way to display the cards in the albums (safely), but a cool pick-up nonetheless.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Richard.
