Recent pick-ups...




Thanks to Jeff for the PCs...




And a couple of tougher types I'm happy to add (special thanks to Scott for the Wags)...

My latest addition. Hadn't seen one of these in a long time...

Awesome Western Playground card Glen! I was in the running as well but fell short. Such a cool looking set and so tough to find (as you surely know).

Beautiful card Glen. Congrats!

beautiful western playground! there's one complete set intact, do we know how many examples of each card are out there? 3-5?

added the iron man to my subset (there's 5000+ examples of the mcginnity floating around?)...fun wiki-ing these lesser known hof'ers.

Wouldn't you know that the one T206 hofer I decide to collect en masse is the one that there's 5000+ copies floating around (IMM). I think I have 8 different backs.

A couple more pickups for my Goudey HOFer collection...

And a couple auction wins...

One isn't prewar vintage, but I'll ask for your forgiveness for posting it. Mathews is a tough HOF rookie to find well centered.

Nice pickup on the Bender Brian. I was watching that one.

Picked up my 8th HRK catcher recently:





P.S. Nice pickup Glen on the Western Playground. It was the 1st I have ever seen on ebay.

A couple of my pickups over the last month or so:

E103 Lajoie:


T205 Cobb:


E101 Matty:


E90-1 Oakes:

Really like that E103 Lajoie, Eric. Great pickup! It looks great for the grade!

Thanks Brian. I think it looks awesome myself. Just a bit of staining, but it doesn't bother me in the slightest. That Lajoie is my favorite of all his cards. For some reason he doesn't have to many "appealing" poses....to me anyway.

The E103 will always keep their value...and when you have a few hard-core collectors going after them, any E103 is a great catch.

I wonder if that guy from Okla. named Jamie (i think) is still trying to hoard every E103 card he can buy. I think he told me his collection ran up to 100 or more.

Mark

you guys have really stepped up your game, great stuff to balance out my low-end t206s...thanks!

its real ugly but its my first Ruth and it completes my w551 set. so for now it's good enough

There's no such thing as an ugly Ruth card. Nice cards all!!!!!!!!!
