Reached the halfway point in my mini-project. Collecting all 14 known Pirates with EPDG backs. Got these two just now in the mail from two different people. I know the Camnitz was only recently confirmed, so I figured I better buy that one despite the writing.

Awesome, John - very tough card!

That "over head" Camnitz wasn't confirmed when I stopped working on the Pirates back in 2012, as far as I know. At that time, I believed there were 15 confirmed, with only Willis, Abstein, and that Camnitz being no-shows. I did not have an image of a couple, and Clarke (fielding) was a bit of a mystery, but I thought it had been confirmed by someone (I do not have the records).

This one would bump it to at least 15 known, 16 if Clarke (fldg) is actually confirmed.

Either way, there are some tough ones in the list, but you've knocked off a big one - congrats!

I am going by T206Resource. Their checklist has 14 confirmed and it was 13 when I first put the list together, then someone found the Camnitz, so I added it. I actually decided to try for them all a year or so before I started, so that's why I only have seven now.

I got a couple nice ones in a trade(see pic below) and then decided to go for the rest. I do check their list from time to time for updates just in case. Message me if you find the checklist that says more than 14 are available so we don't clutter the May pickup thread. Thanks.

BTW, I have Gibson, Miller, Clarke/port, Maddox, Wilson, Camnitz arms folded and above head. Phillippe seems very easy, so I've passed on a few nicer ones, looking for VG range

Default Nice pick ups!

I always enjoy seeing people's pickups each month, especially when they are related to a "Special Project " that someone is working on. These show us all the fun in collecting and how you can collect in anyway that means something to YOU;not the industry itself or that there is a standard way to have a collection. Thanks for sharing guys!

Acquired late last month:

1) The first is a c1916 RPPC of HOFer Judy Johnson, when he was ~16 years young. Don't know if I'd call it his "rookie" or his "prookie" or what? I'm just calling it "one of my new favorites!"

2) I suppose the 2nd one speaks for itself.
