Default August Pick ups
Thanks to a fellow Net54 member I was able to add Cy and a very tough League Park bleachers postcard view to my collection. Also came across a Case Auto Joe Tinker card that is a variation from the one I already have and a Walter Johnson Sporting News Postcard. A good month so far.

Great postcards....

Wonder where Case cars went with their "famous" engine... Did Ford absorb them or just put them out of business....

Richard, that's quite an interesting proof. Beautiful, actually. I love the simplicity that proofs offer. What was your original inspiration to collect George Gibson? I don't know a lot about him.

Jamie, what's the story behind the T206s with limited ink runs? Were these done as testers, or were they simply discarded (maybe because they weren't happy with the color levels)? I know you refer to them as scraps. If you could provide a little background info to somebody who would like to learn, I'd appreciate it. I've started reading the Inside T206 pdf download, and I'm fascinated by how they produced these lithos. Thank you!

Hi Daryl. Very nice pickup, congrats! I know very little about the Melo Mints. Is there a good online resource you could refer me to? I love the candy cards from this era, especially the American Caramels, and would like to expand my collection to include some of these.

Brad, these are incredible! Just beautiful!!!! I especially love the W572. Great eye appeal, and nicely centered. Did you get those at the National?

Jim, these postcards are amazing. The Cy Young cards almost look hand colored. I had a friend in college that would take black and white photographs, and hand color them. They had the same incredible eye appeal.
