First three cards down the long monstrous path, bad scans from ebay.

Ill rescan the Cobb once it arrives. Really liked the OP miscut O'Leary.

[Orions father]

Not trying to be negative but does that Hoffman above look odd to anyone else?

[atx840]

If you mean the erasure marks, there were a ton of cards on ebay with pencil erased off the front and stamps on the back last week. Green Cobb

The colors do seem bright on it, that's why i grabbed it.

[tlwise12]

I got extremely lucky to find this card. Just paid for it and can't wait until it arrives...

[tbob]

This is one you don't see very often, T213 Herzog with the "B on jersey variation."

[btkpath]

Received all of these on Thursday this week. If only all mail days were like this one!

[Robextend]

It's been a good month for Tolstoi collecting...3 more to give me a total of 81.





Also picked up this this 1933 Goudey Cronin leaving me with 33 cards to go for the set.

That MAtty is by far one of my most favorite cards in the set - and yours is a lot nicer than the three I have in my collection.

A T206 for my team set...many thanks to Erick for a flawless transaction!




A CJ for my type set...




...and my 1st D-card.

[tbob]

Well, since my E90-1 set is history, I thought maybe it was time to start grabbing some of the cards from that set which I liked the best. Here's the first:

Maybe you can complete it again or at least go for a neat subset...

[Ladder7]

Bob, Your Chase is a classic image.

Welcome to my HOF collection Mr. Flick!

[Matthew H]

This is how I plan to pose for all photos, from now on:



Thanks to Jay M.

[GrayGhost]

Added a couple more to my small, insignificant type card collection, incl this one. I know its a 10, but the "image" on back intrigued me too, its prob just a "wet card" and not a wet transfer, but I think its cool. Haven't received it yet, but these are the bay pics:

That really sucks Tbob, but will be interesting to see how many of your exact cards you end up getting back in the next year or two. Could be a fun side project.

[Anthony S.]

Hallalujah.

[Kawika]

Nothing beats a little horizontal refreshment. Congrats, Anthony!

Thank You, Steve:

[T206Collector]

Might be a little early to start calling me E92Collector, but I am becoming quite enamored by these.... particularly because they just blaze with my new scanner!

[Ladder7]

The E92 artist hated Frank Chance. Nice scanner.

[leaflover]

These guys helped my set!!

[Robextend]

[deebro041]

Just picked this up, smiling away.

[deebro041]

I also found a silver platter for a pitcher in the Pony League who threw a no hitter. Not sure what year it was but have the name and teams. I am unable to find any related info for the league, does anyone know anything about the pony league?
