I usually don't post until I get the card in hand, but I'm pretty happy to get a tough M101 back card.

A few items that arrived yesterday. The Oakes is my 36th different Nadja, Jennings is a nice duplicate, Bescher is unconfirmed for the Nadja set so figured a red crofts would be a decent substitute, and the Bemis, well, I won that before the Bescher, and the Young makes my 4th pick up for the back run (others I have being Nadja, crofts blue, cocoa)

* prior to the Natty, T3 Turkey Reds were not on my radar. Wasn't even thinking about them
* came home with two
* two more in the mailbox today

I'm a happy camper.

This was my Cobb you picked up. I've now come to the point in life where I have to start paying for the kids' college. UGH!!!

Hi Richard. I never knew the card existed before a month ago. Was skimming through the Minor League Card section of Mr. Lemke's catalog, and the name Oscar Judd jumped out at me. Canadian Hall of Famer who never got a major league card. I asked around, and Mark had one for sale. Pretty neat find.

Cheers, Marty

Default T207 Display Cabinet

I picked up an old bookcase last year to use for my displaying my T207 collection. Someone had painted the inside pink then white most likely in the 1950s. They also painted over on the hinges as well.

I replaced the old "painted" shelves with plate glass. I was also extremely lucky to find brand new hinges that matched perfectly in an antique shop. Lastly I added a new art nouveau style door knob.

Couldn't get a great picture with all the glare but pretty happy with the results. The stain I used had a poly included that matched the T207 backgrounds and their gloss pretty well.

It's not often that I pick up something for $11.35 that I consider to be an important part of my collection. But this one definitely qualifies. I know it's not pre-war, but it's a team issue of the major leagues' first African American coach, shown as a coach. I always hoped it existed, but never knew until now.

What set is the O'Neill card from? Or is it not a card?

It's a Cubs team issue, 8" x 10". I assume it's from 1962-65 when O'Neil coached for the Cubs.

Couldn't get a great picture with all the glare but pretty happy with the results. The stain I used had a poly included that matched the T207 backgrounds and their gloss pretty well.
