Thanks

After taking a closer look of Chris’s card there are some pretty cool ones I might look for in the distant future(lot of Jackson and Ruth and need first)

Chris, great collection. This is one of my favorite strip card sets also. Here is mine.

Here is Ed Konetchy...his head might be big, but not as heavy as his bat, to judge by his droopy bat batting stance.

Chris, I suspect these two will catch your attention. I wish you the best in your quest to complete this set.

[pawpawdiv9]

Nice cards guys
And yes Val- I saw the Judge but Rice is also nice

The Big Heads card of WaJo captures the brief hipster phase that Walter went through before he returned to his clean shaven, Barney ways.

Hey chiprop, is it a coincidence that you're showing us your Hinie & your Johnson?

Front side, back side, Aaron. You know that. (great pickups on the Wags labels too. Hope you are well...)

LoL

[pawpawdiv9]

I added this back in December-- checked off Joe Judge of the list.
Thanks again Dan!!

[danmckee]

Great Post! Thanks Chris!!

[pawpawdiv9]

i picked this SISLER up recently,
DOWN to 2 left to finish the set: P.Bodie & S.Rice

[pawpawdiv9]

This one ENDED on Ebay today: COBB
Yeah, it was 'raw' but under Ebay Authencity.
(thats why i questioned about it being sent to CSG)

WONDER WHO GOT IT???? I placed a few bids...but WOWWZERS!!! $3550
It got some late action between 2 bidders
I had always thought TonyEtrade was way high on his on Ebay @5445
but, that may perhaps been a factor in pricing as well. Congrats!!!

[brianp-beme]

From the fairly poor image it has the suspicious "I'm not authentic" squiggle lines, and the color is looking off as well. I think it will not pass as authentic.

Have to agree, it's got color and printing to match a modern attempt at Cobb. Hope they're covered either way!

P.S. Going to post some info about this set's creation and dating on Net54's longest research thread, which appears to be https://www.net54baseball.com/showth...=120812&page=2 -- will be interesting to revive one last updated in 2010!

Agree^^^
I had talk to another member
While it was ongoing and had
Suspicions too about not real
The color was faded and the back
Look tea stain and baked but
The EBay guarantee has buyer covered

That’s one of threads I bookmarked
Good read

[pawpawdiv9]

UPDATE:
I picked up a SAM RICE!!!!!!


I also am getting back 4 cards from PSA that i crossed/sent in raw---results:
Judge: PSA 1
Groh: PSA 1.5
Wajo: PSA Auth
Cadore: PSA Auth

OVERALL--- SUPER EXCITED!!!!!

Just need Ping Bodie to finish the set.
(missed one back in Hakes, that was poorly cut/torn
in 2021)
Here is the example:

[parkplace33]

Great job!

I thought you got the Rice from Val, but then I realized the certs are different

Don't be thinking that Val would give up that Big ol' Rice Head of his.

Brian

[pawpawdiv9]

^^^ lol
Val definitely wouldn’t let his go.
He showed his several times and just like
The “judge” card. It takes time since there not many around.
I’m so happy and getting the last card (bodie)
Will be a thrill to complete
So if anyone see it at a show or else-pm me

[ValKehl]

Chris, congrats on picking up a Big Head of Sam Rice. I'm happy for you, and I'll be totally thrilled for you when you complete this set.
