June Pick Up Thread

These three arrived in the past week. I overpaid for the cabinet but could care less; as soon as I saw it I knew I had to have it. The cabinet looks so much better in hand than that scan shows.

Well, I was prepared to "overpay" for the cabinet at one increment lower...congrats on the win....your "overpay" beat my "overpay limit" by one bid.

Wow, that Nadja is such a beauty.

Finally pulled the trigger on this Fred Payne E90-3 American Caramel.

Always liked this portrait of Fred Payne. It will make a nice companion piece with my other E90-3 catcher card, Jimmy Archer.

Ha! I wondered if someone on Net54 was running me up. Better you than the house (not implying that this has ever happened). It's definitely a beauty.

Usually Old Judge "proofs" go for $750-$1500 unless it is a better player. Or in this case, a particularly nice image. So, yes, a little more than usual, but it's like when a better-centered card commands a premium over the usual price for that grade...it's more than usual but understandably so (and I had reached what I could afford on this month's budget). Just don't post it in too many threads!
