I didn't realize there was a recent pickup thread so I appologize if anyone has already seen the previous thread with these scans. Many of these were picked up on this board and I appreciate everyone that helped me out with a few of these cards......enjoy

For some reason, spring training sends me into a modern kick. So I've unfortunately been buying a buch of the shiny stuff lately...BUT I did manage to pick up two pre-war items recently, a '34 Diamond Matchbooks Ernie Lombardi and a b18 Ray Chapman.

Just Like tbob thanked and recognized Tom A. for selling him the last C46 card that he needed for the set; I wanted to thank Bob for his generosity in return to me for selling me an E98 that I needed. He exchanged it with me in a sell/trade combination. I really appreciate it Bob! It gets me within 15!
Up until now, I had never seen a Davis with a Blue Background before with my own eyes
Thanks,
Tim

My new February pickup is not the card below (well that was a pickup this month as well, but I digress), I just installed a new all-in-one printer with CCD scanning technology vs CIS scanning technology.

Old Scanner (HP Photosmart C5180):



New Scanner (Canon PIXMA MG8120B):



WOW! What a difference!
