February Pickups
I've never started one of these but I did pick up an interesting trade card today with an albumen image of the 1878 Buffalo Bosons, one of the greatest minor league teams ever. The 1878 Bisons won the International Association and had a winning record against National League teams(10-7). They joined the National League the following season. They featured a young Pud Galvin who compiled a record (hold on to your hat Old Hoss) of 72-25.

Thanks for whipping out your Pud and showing it to us.
Sorry...couldn't resist. I picked up this for my Koufax collection: I was not aware that you could even have a qualified 1. What is that, double secret probation for cards?

Agreed on this, Adam! There is a flaw in the logic of adding qualifiers to PSA 1s. Dean Wormer must have taken a job with PSA. Nice card nonetheless. --tim |

I like it. It lets me know the card is a 1 and has one of the flaws that earns a qualifier. The more info the better right? |

Thanks guys. This is the second 1878 Buffalo trade card that has been found, as far as I know. The first had a green mount, was trimmed, and had different ads.

Jay- Nice pick up on the Buffalo trade card. As mentioned in a post, did you pick up a Cal McVey image, also?
|

Hi Gary! Yes, I posted an image of the McVey and Leonard CdVs I picked up in the January thread

E106 Wagner
Went all in for this one including selling my 1951 Bowman Mantle.
Thanks to everyone who purchased from me this past month for allowing me to secure the funds for my first Wagner! Highest graded of the 14 slabbed by PSA |

Jay, great trade card. It's condition is incredible. I have never seen that color before either. I have seen two green examples. Lipset auctioned the one on the left and I bought the other one in the 1995 Rucker sale and traded it away sometime afterwards.

Great looking card, congrats!!

That's great Kevin. So the one without the trimmed corner has the same ads as mine. The back on mine is undamaged. I've heard that there was a similar trade card made for the Troy team, but I have not seen an image.
It is interesting to note that Bill McGunnigle, who is featured in the Old Judge set as the manager of Brooklyn, was a player on the 1878 Buffalo squad. |

First I must say a huge thanks to Brian McQueen, who held this for me for a lot longer than most people would, just so I could get a tough card for my Dots Miller collection. I didn't know this Orange Borders card even existed until I saw his listing and I was told that there aren't any graded, so it was probably a one shot deal to acquire this card and Brian went above and beyond to help me get it

A huge thanks to Rhett for this 1920 D327 Holsum Bread with the Type 1 back which arrived today to complement the 1921 D327 Holsum Bread with the Type 2 back that I won in the December SCP Auction. My OCD pursuit of all variations of all Edgar Charles "Sam" Rice cards continues!

Thanks Jesse. It's out of my league also to be honest...I had to sell some great cards to make it happen. Luckily they are all replaceable and that's what it came down to.
