Thanks & nice pickup

I was pleasantly surprised with the variety at the show, as modern cards do tend to dominate. For the first time in a while, the material available was
close to 50/50. The dealer I purchased from had a large selection of raw and graded issues, including T206, T205, E90-1, E101, and R319. They had some 19th century items too, but I didn't make it to that end of their table.

Didn't realize that. It took me a few minutes to figure out whose name it was and just posted it up before thinking about any distinguishing characteristics linking the two players.

Thanks for the info (and cool penant!)

The Merkle is one of the tougher ones in that set. Nice pickup!

jimivintage · #**108** 03-08-2011, 08:42 PM

A few new ones. Bad scan!

milkit1 · #**109** 03-08-2011, 09:13 PM

YEAH THATS QUITE A WONDER THAT T206!

The Merkle Ferguson is one of the rarer ones?!?!?! awesome, i just started collecting them so that was a lucky purchase!

tlwise12 · #**110** 03-08-2011, 09:16 PM

Been looking for this one for a while! I paid a little more than I wanted to, but its been awhile since I've seen one and who knows when it will be again...

SethY · #**111** 03-08-2011, 09:28 PM

Finally got this beauty scanned

Jaybird · #**112** 03-08-2011, 10:41 PM

Nice one, Leon. That card is amazing. A "take your breath away" card.

53Browns · #**113** 03-09-2011, 08:55 AM

I love it and you almost never see this card so well centered.

Bill, I'm not a big Pete Rose fan but I've always loved that card (especially centered perfectly)! Nice pick up.

DanP · #**115** 03-09-2011, 12:23 PM

Finally bought one!

T206.org · #**116** 03-09-2011, 12:33 PM

I'm really happy to have this card back. I've been working towards it for two years. I finally offered a trade that King couldn't refuse, haha.

Thank you, King!!!

docpatlv · #**117** 03-09-2011, 12:47 PM

That card is gorgeous Trae. That's the finest Kawika I've ever seen.

T206.org · #**118** 03-09-2011, 01:33 PM

Thanks, Doc - same here!
Haha @ the Kawika reference - gotta love his avatar, huh?

Pack fresh front, but I guess it sat in the pack for a while because the Old Mill reverse has some faint paper loss lines from the packaging... so it's only a 40/3. Fine by me!

53Browns · #**119** 03-09-2011, 02:13 PM

Awesome Goudey Dimaggio Dan. It's on my want list!

teetwoohsix · #**120** 03-09-2011, 02:14 PM

Very nice Trae !! You've been picking up some nice ones lately

Also liked Jaybird's pick ups also- love T206's

This one just arrived from RayBShotz on the B/S/T- he was great to deal with, a smooth transaction. My scanner sucks, and never does the cards justice.....but this one is very nice for the grade.

Thanks again to Jason Carota for noticing the resemblance in the first place and to John Wonka for the ultra-cool rendering of McTitus. Gotta love it!

deadballera · #**122** 03-09-2011, 02:53 PM

nice pickups !!!

Mikehealer · #**123** 03-09-2011, 04:11 PM

I have been looking for a nice looking example and was happy to grab this one.
May have overpaid a tad, but I'm happy with it.

Ease · #**124** 03-09-2011, 04:24 PM

Thats an outstanding Dahlen! I dont think u overpaid, nice ones don't come around often.

Merrillstoys · #**125** 03-09-2011, 06:05 PM

Paid for but not received yet and can't wait.----Merrill

Mikehealer · #**126** 03-09-2011, 06:35 PM

Thanks Eric, and you're right nice looking ones don't come up all that often.

gfgcom · #**127** 03-10-2011, 02:27 PM

I recently had a very nice find of t213-II Coupon Tobacco cards.
The seller, who was from Metaire, LA., also had some Cracker Jacks a General Baking and This Ty Cobb with a Tango Egg back.

The card had previously been rumored to exist, but apparently had never been seen, at least not by the masses.

I have already sold the card, and I believe it is now in a SGC 10 Holder.
Condition wise, truly a card only a mother could love, but what a rarity!!

Here it is: Ty Cobb Tango Egg Back!

Great, great card David!

I wonder what the "P" stands for on your jersey.

Very nice card Leon, enjoy it!

Robextend · #**131** 03-10-2011, 03:58 PM

Picked this up via trade with fellow board member Keith (Irwin Fletcher). First class transaction!

185/240

bh3443 · #**132** 03-11-2011, 07:32 AM

Thank you Chris at Cassidy's Sportscards for the great deal!

Tim Kindler · #**133** 03-11-2011, 11:04 AM

Thanks to B& L for the latest addition in my E98 set, but no offense Leon and Scott, but my best pick up of the year so far was the card my 6 year old son Tyrus created for me. It is a vintage 2011 Postcard size, unused! And I bet it would grade at least a 20!

53Browns · #**134** 03-11-2011, 11:14 AM

Nice 67 Topps Brooks Robby Bill! Those are tough!

I'm very excited to add this E253 Oxford to my collection!!
Whoo Hoo!
I'm getting what I consider a nice low-grade HOF run going here :

Whaddya think?

Vintagecatcher · #**137** 03-11-2011, 11:52 PM

Picked up a 1912 John H. "Dad" Rohrer Zeenut on eBay earlier tonight.

With this pick-up, I only need to upgrade a 1912 Walter Boles Zeenut, and then a 1912 Claude Berry Zeenut to complete my run of catcher pose cards in the 1912 Zeenut set.

ls7plus · #**138** 03-12-2011, 12:56 AM

Great cards, guys--motivation to keep the flame burning! Especially liked Jeff's 1926-1929 Exhibits Cobb and 1916 Mordecai (Three-Finger) Brown, and David B's 1923-1924 Exhibits Genewich (tough cards, those '23-'24's. Maybe someday I'll bump into the Ruth, at a time when I can afford it).

I was wondering, Jeff, if your collecting focus is the same as mine: stars and hall-of-famers, in the best condition you can find or afford? I would assume the yellow-toned Cobb is pretty tough to find.

With best regards,

Larry

joeadcock · #**139** 03-12-2011, 05:30 AM

Brian

Went through your SGC Card Registry. That is a great assembly of cards. Much luck with your continued pursuit.
I'll keep watching.

Brown OM-tough one to knock off the list and such a nice condition example.

not too many of those floating around

wonkaticket · #**146** 03-12-2011, 06:58 PM

Thanks Jim, one of the nicest I have ever seen besides one that some guy I know has but he wouldn't sell me his.

cfc1909 · #**147** 03-12-2011, 07:07 PM
