September Pickup Thread...

David:

Love the Senators postcard, wondering if Sam Rice is pictured? Only played 4 games in 1915 ................

[Kawika]

Phil: I couldn't get Rice's face to fit any of the players. There's a bit of resemblance with the guy in the front row fourth from the left but I wouldn't bet a nickle that it's him. Maybe Val Kehl could weigh in. You can get a blow-up view of the post card at my ImageEvent page: http://tinyurl.com/3yxzcnl pw=aloha

David, those Shield postcards look great! Really like the period writing on back.

I was wondering who won that Halla. Congrats, David.

Love those low grade N172's with the strong contrast...

First of all, I hate deer as much as the next guy. They eat all my plants and are a nuisance with the ticks and the running in front of the cars, etc.

Also, I love to eat meat... lots of it.

But you gotta exercise a little discretion before you show off your hunting photos on a baseball card board. Tons of people find that kind of stuff really offensive. And as much as I hate deer and love meat, even I found that photo more sad than anything else.

Isn't there a dead animal board you can post that on?

Same here. I don't have anything against what you are doing and how you get your food, but I'd rather not see it in any form on this board.

What does the dead deer have to do with baseball? Did you chase and kill it with a bat? Was it beaned in the head with a 100 MPH fastball? This is the wrong place for a pic. like that.

Well, I guess I misjudged the situation. I feel like I've come to know some of the folks on this forum, and I thought there might be some other hunters out there that might appreciate a quick off-topic post, along the lines of the many other off-topic posts and threads out there. I guess not.

Let him be. Albeit, it was OT but so is alot of the other comments on here. I dont think he meant to offend anyone, just was proud of his recent pickup. Most everyone would be offended if they saw the meat they eat everyday in such a "raw" form, doesn't mean its not OK. Although I dont hunt or own a gun, I respect his right to and am happy for him. Most of you may disageree with me (thats OK, that is what makes this country great), saying it doesn't belong here just because it not baseball is wrong. I have seen shared pix of our families, other hobbies (motorcycles, coins) and even a few illegal substances on this board.

I think I can make out a faint Draper & Maynard logo on the deer's forehead ...

player upgrade... I didn't expect to win this....

I just got it back from SGC last week (originally a BST from iggyman last month). The back leaves a little to be desired (paper loss and some crayon?), but the front is gorgeous. This one will be with me for a long time:

Erick,

The Lundgren looks fantastic! Did I ever mention my Net54 B/S/T money back guarantee???

Lovely Day...

I love flea markets! The Globe of Mamaux I picked up as the first of ten cards with all of them being Pirates and the most recent being from 1927. The other nine I will post in two weeks. The Mamaux is by far in the worst shape of any of the ten. I also want to thank Justin for the T205 Miller:
