Let's ease up on Pete here. He's a first rate kind of guy and hasnt told any lies. He's just trying to sell a card. When you try and sell something, you always try and build it up to potential buyers.

Direct quote from the site

" Many of Wright’s innovative ideas still exist today including pre-game practice, a live cork centered baseball, and, most important, overhand pitching"

Why would I lie about that?

Have I stumbled onto some sort of time vortex??? This thread reminds me of the good old days on Net54 when any post would lead to inflammatory dialogue and ultimately demerits, suspensions, lost friends, and creation of new pre-war forum websites. I'm as nostalgic as the next guy, but hopefully this thread will die a quick death.

Lovely day...

I was wondering if you had any cards that are actually cool? Like do you have any with guys with massive afros? I do. Do you have any with players with a floating eyeball? I do. I just scored a Dick Williams card that has such sharp edges that you could slice a pepperoni log so thin that you could read the paper through it. Think my collection tops yours. WIN for Fripples.

I just had a very nice chat with Fripples. Fripples is a very educated adult that enjoys the hobby and especially the artwork on our gems. As a matter of fact, with a PHD in Middle Eastern studies (she'll kill me for letting that out), I told Fripples she might have some interests in common with Jim B. And of course Fripples has Lichtman to blame for enjoying the hobby. Isn't he always at fault ? Fripples seems like a blast of person.....very upbeat!!

I thought that post above was a bit odd too....but it's all in fun.

I think he might've had it in the right place. He was trying to sell it on Net54, and not link it to the ebay auction...

Jeff you must stop using Hal Lewis tactics to beat sellers down on price. Shame on you.

Certainly nothing personal but when I clicked on the link it went to ebay....so that is why I moved it.

And I might add I just went back and put it back in the 19th century category. It was Jeff's link I clicked on . My apology.

"Wright is commonly referred to as the "Grandfather of professional baseball" as he brought us the overhand pitch back in the 1800's."

Huh? Where did this come from?

You know it goes both ways. As a seller I would be rich if I got a penny for every buyer who said my item was over graded and not worth crap and then offered me half of what I wanted.

Sure at some point talking up a card gets silly, but as a seller aren't you SUPPOSED to talk up your product :-)

That being said not sure why you would like a lower SMR price when you want almost double for the card. Usually that goes the other way and SMR is usually way off, seems in this case they are way low...

Hi Jay, no overhand pitch, but found this :


"It was there where he is credited with introducing innovations such as backing up infield plays from the outfield and shifting defensive alignments based on hitters' tendencies"
