Leon, nice pickup, i've been looking for one of them for awhile now. Its lucky for you I found out about some other cards coming up in your next auction Does that complete your back run of these?

I thought it was already quite expensive and sort of thought you might be the one......glad it wasn't but not sure it matters. I had a few more increments but still think it was quite high.....

The owner of my favorite shop called me last week to tell me that a nice collection had walked in his door. He sent me some scans of the cards he thought I'd be interested in, and I immediately knew which one I had to have. This is my first 19th-century HOFer and I'm thrilled it's an N162. To me, the brilliant color lithography of the Goodwins and the Allen & Ginters are so much more attractive than the often washed-out sepia photography of the N172 Old Judges. Anyway, here's my "newest" 126-year-old baseball card, enjoy!

Great looking N162 with awesome color! My latest E92 Dockman pickup, Mr. Wagner.

What started as just want a few now has me worried I might be getting hooked on these cards...a few more OJ's.


Always wanted this pose.



Congrats Jamie on the Cobb and your run, well done sir.

Cheers,

John

Jamie,

Nice pickup on the Cobb. That Cobb run of yours is outstanding.

Regards,
Marty

Thanks guys.. I am certainly very happy with how it has come along.. when I first started I expected no more than 20.. due to the scarcity/cost of about 9 of them... with the blank I am now at 26.. one of the great things about this website is following the progress of collectors projects.... perhaps seeing something someone else has been looking for.. and letting them know... and watching the collections come together..

Looking forward to seeing everyone's Feb pick ups this month.

Steve.. congrats on finding the Dahlen

Brad.. i love that Ruth Postcard..

and John... those OJs are great.... are you getting into OJ's now? is there an agreed checklist for them? how many are in the set? if so it will be fun to follow ur progress here.

Geez, John, it's a tough enough market without having to fight another OJ aficionado! Just stick to buying all of Jay's extras!

Those three are beauties!

Jamie - Awesome Cobb run!! Congrats on the blank back; sweet!

[Blunder19]

I was able to add the final T206 back to my cobb run... (I dont count the Cobb back as a T206) Now just missing the Coupon Type 3, T214 Victory and the Cobb back.

I was not sure if I would be a bidder at first.. but after getting a chance to speak with the owner of the card I felt confident the card was authentic. Also Bill Goodwin sent the card back to SGC to be regraded and came back as an authentic blank back again... so that also help put my worries at ease.

Looking forward to receiving the card in hand to check it out for myself.

Here is my new Addition:



Updated pick of the Cobb Run:
