Nice pick up, Jeff.

Congrats, Dave. Some day, I'll go back into the 1800s. Until then, I'll have to enjoy the cards that you and other forum members are adding.

Happy to check these off the want list and join Bill on the WaJo portrait train. The paper loss in the top right and a microscopic crease in one corner made this well-centered example a lot more affordable.

Congratulations, Bryan! Those are some beautiful cards. It's amazing how cards that don't get the great "technical" grades can still be so beautiful.

Very nice, tbob. I admit I've never seen Home Run Kisses before. I'll have to look them up. And grats on the Manush pickup.

Also picked up a few York Caramels from Sterling for my E210 set:

Adam, I really like those candy cards. And, of course, as a T206 collector, you know I love the Dunn. That's a beautiful card. Very clean.
