Great pick ups everyone, I do enjoy this thread

Barnard looks like he doesn't take crap from anyone. "Mean-eyed Barnard." Beautiful image, Tony.

Thanks to the board members for your help toward my conquest.

[GregMitch34]

Just picked up my first Sporting Life and wanted to start (as always) with one of the most beautiful.

[BCauley]

Got this from Steve (Ladder7) on the BST for the T206 Portrait collection I'm working on. Thanks Steve!

[Chris D.]

[Howe’s Hunter]

?

[GasHouseGang]

From a Net54 member. Really nice for the grade.

[bcbgcbrcb]

David:

Very nice Cobb for a 2

[GasHouseGang]

Thanks Phil, I agree. I thought the front looked like it could be a 5, but there is some small paper loss on the reverse which accounts for the technical grade.

Beautiful Brown, Smith, Baker and Chase!

Just picked up this Willis Drum as an upgrade.

Sorry about the size. I'm not sure how to make it smaller.

Trust me Jim she's ok with it. Very nice card. Any significance to the mark/stamp on it?

[leaflover]

Not sure why, but this card(Bergen Batting) has been a "toughie" for me.

[joeadcock]

For type collection

[atx840]

No clue what these are but I liked them. dated 1881

[atx840]

Similar pen mark?

[Robextend]

Went astray from my usual pickups with this T205 Johnson. I thought it was very presentable for the grade.

I agree! Nice pickup.

[old-baseball]

A few upgrades and reverse variations.....

An upgrade to the tougher Holke (Throwing), also has "reversed" back.



Another upgrade to my Carl May (Incorrect Name), also with the "reversed" back.




A Carl Mays (Correct Name) with a tough Type 3 reverse.




A nice look Joe Wood (tough with no print line on right), also with the "reversed" back.

[joeadcock]

Hey Rob
Agree with Jason on nice pickup WoJo

Also nice cards Kevin

[wolfdogg]

Picked this 1932 Sanella Type 1 up of The Babe....along with the other 111 cards in the set.....

[jthorst75]

Picked up this gem recently. Always wanted the Johnson portrait, it has to be one of the best in the set.

[teetwoohsix]

Great stuff everyone !! From the B/S/T, thanks Ed W.- always a pleasure to deal with you.

[peterose4hof]

Cool story Ed. Well done Sean!

I picked this up from buythatcard on Ebay last night. Can't wait to get it in hand. It's one of the cleanest, sharpest ones I have seen.



I'm thinking of having it graded. Does anyone understand the grading standards for why some strip cards get a numerical grade and some get an authentic? Or is it an impossible algorithm?

[DixieBaseball]

Thanks Rob !

[atx840]

Nice card Jeff.

[gorrister]

Is 1947 pre or post war? Technically, the war was over, but I've always considered post-war to start with the 1948 Leaf & Bowman sets.

[Steve D]

Just got this one today:



That leaves only one card to go to finish my '33 Goudey HOFer run.

Yeah right.......in other words.....I think I'm finished with the set

Steve

[t206blogcom]

Just can't resist these!

[wonkaticket]

Great Hogan Patrick.



Thanks Adam.



Very faint ghost T213 kind of neat....IMO.

Cheers,

John

[atx840]

Yeah it's shredded, barely hanging together.

These were picked up prior to the heated posts, lots of calls, emails and research of past auctions for prices. It was fun seeing that many Hindus hidden away and learning about his grandfathers collection. Not a single concern, cards fedexed overnight, very happy.

[atx840]

My very scientific analysis of the Engle ghost, me thinks Willetts is the card to the left.

[wonkaticket]

Chris, great Hindus! Jason funny it does look like the phone poll or dorm hall flyers.

Dang Chris I think you're right does look like Willetts bat good catch.

Cheers,

John
