Tougher combo

Chris, great example. And very bold for a P42 (they're usually printed a little lighter, as you know).

Great one, Val!!

Also, very nice, Chris. I like the bold back ink.

Nice pick up Val!

[ValKehl]

Thanks, Steve & Bob. Lots of really nice pickups thus far this month, especially T206s. But, my favorite is the Zeenut w/tab of Duffy Lewis.

I've been wanting to add an example from this tough pin set for a long while since it fits my A's/Phillies type collection from the dead ball era. Was happy to finally pick one up for the collection this month.

Judging from the fact that the Barry pin wasn't one of the 22 examples from the Paul Muchinsky collection that were sold in the most recent Hake's auction, I would surmise that Barry might be an extra tough common in what can already be considered a scarce pin set.

Another Ruth card that used to be readily available on ebay for a fraction of what they go for now...I added this beaten up badboy to the stable...along with this stereoscoptic thing.

Just got this W502 of "Goose" from Greg Morris via eBay. Even though GM sells zillions of cards, I think this is my first purchase from GM.

I really wish this card was of Sam Rice, instead of Goose Goslin, as I need a W502 of Rice with this back and also with the THREE BAGGER back for my master Sam Rice card collection. Can anyone help?

Great stuff, Pete. You've been really picking up a lot of Ruth items recently.

Speaking up beaten up pickups, I recently picked up this very rough notebook.

Thanks, Pete. The notebook is barely holding together, but I still had to get it because I'd never seen it before. (The seller still has one more copy that he wants to keep for himself so it's not unique.)
