July Pickup Thread

Wow Jim, that E220 is amazing! Such a tough card, especially one as clean and centered as that. Awesome.

Nice combo Michael - not a bad way to restart the collection

Chuck, really great combo as well. That is a toughie!

Pretty card Leon - nicely centered indeed.

Wow, that guy at the back right (Cuban card) has to be almost 7 ft. tall , right??

No kidding!! Actually before this auction took place, there was some speculation that the standing giant MIGHT in fact, be the great Hall-of-Fame pitcher, Smokey Joe Williams! But alas, after quite a bit of thoughtful research and image comparisons from fellow board members, a consensus was reached that it's probably not he. But the player sitting at far right is definitely Alejandro Oms - a guy with a decent shot at the Hall, someday. I hope.

Another T206 HOFer pickup...

[CobbSpikedMe]

Recently picked up this e90-1 Fromme. It replaces one that I had but went to another member and I couldn't be happier to have another one.

Eat your hearts out guys!

I agree. The E220 Ruth is such a tough card in good condition, and that one looks really nice.

[ZiggerZagger]

Picked up my last SL'er this past week to complete the run. Surprised me a bit that it ended up being Pat McCauley with as tough as some of the others are.

The SL'ers have been such a cool part of the T206 set to work on, and a few board members on here were really key in helping me along the way with big batches of cards.

I think they look great all together as well!

After a complete run of SLers, this looks rather pedestrian. However, I added another T206 HOFer to my collection. SGC 3 from eBay.

Really happy with the centering and registration on this one

Sharp looking for the grade. The registration and color are always tough on that one.

Only a couple in July, but picked up two more and completed this short set...

This is a beauty. I have always loved the look of this classic DiMaggio.


Here’s my contribution for this month! Looks great next to my Red Ruth!

Picked this up earlier this month. Still looking for the same card in E92/D303/T216 backs.

I picked this up in May, waiting for it to come back from SGC (a long wait). Congrats!

Presents really nice! I still like the '39 card more though and it gets overlooked for some reason.

C-Mack, I did a double take when I saw your last two 34 Goudeys. I picked up a Dean and Foxx with the exact same grades and posted them in the June pickups! At first I thought I was being pranked. Hahaha! Quite ironic.
