Thanks Chuck and you're exactly right. That card is never going anywhere. The CJ Cobb of yours looks damn nice especially for a 1914. Great cards everyone and a great thread.

T210 Fred Toney
This is by far my best prewar card. My 1910 T210 Fred Toney pictured on the Winchester Hustlers. It is my favorite because the Winchester Hustlers existed in my home town of winchester kentucky and the fact that a star pitcher from the prewar era pitched in my home town is just to cool. Not to mention I am only 27 and it took me five years to find this card.

Thanks Phil. There's no postmark but I'm guessing around the 1912 time frame. I got it with another post card of Johnson with Larry Cheney. He's wearing the same uniform as in this other postcard dated 1912 I have. The Cubs emblem Cheney has on his shirt was used in 1911-1912. Johnson's style of uniform was used in 1912-1916. It was definitely taken at Coffeyville, Kansas.

Although not the best looking card, it is my favorite. I have always wanted to have a 1914 Cracker Jack Joe Jackson, but was never within my budget. My wife spotted this about 4 years ago in raw form and purchased it without my knowledge. The story she got from the guy was that he found it in the flooring of an old house that he was either tearing down or refurbishing. Although she was somewhat sceptical as she has heard horror stories of fake cards, she took a chance and bought it. She first sent it to SGC where they authenticated it, but they were afraid to slab it due to the possibility of the left side coming apart in their slabbing process. She then sent it to Beckett and they were able to slab it. It made for a wonderful birthday present. Wife and card are both keepers. It by far is my most prized card and plan on passing it down to my son.
