Great cards Dave, any idea who won the Cobb? Thought the Cobb price wasn't bad.

Oh Matt that is very nice.

Dave good pickups on the Toppings, you don't see those often. I also thought the Topping Cobb went reasonably.

Thanks Dan & Brian!

Via trade. Thanks Bob!





E95 Cicotte. This is actually one of my favorites from the set. Good looking card for a 20. I once had a 30 but sold it, so I put one back into my collection.




And this E92 Young with a Blue Croft's Candy back.


I've got more, but this is good for now. I still have some scanning to do.

I pick up this very realistic Wagner reprint off of eBay not long ago. Didn't think it was worthy to be posted as a prewar pick up, but here it is anyways.

Does anyone know if this set was reprinted or was it just the Wagner? Any info on these cards would be cool!

Lots of reprints out there for that set and d304s. They can fool a casual collector but they shouldn't fool a seasoned vintage collector, even with a poor scan.

Thanks Zach & Matt

Eric,

Love the Cicotte and the Red Sox logo on the uni. I also have one and doubt it will ever leave the collection.

Thanks Lee. I had an SGC 30 a while ago, but sold it to pick up some other type cards. I felt a whole in my collection without that card, so I had to pick one back up. It's a good looking 20 if I do say so myself.

Won this card tonight on Ebay. I think it's pretty rare card, I never seen it before.
I understand you had to send in 10 Goudey wrappers to get one.
The condition is not the greatest but had to have it for my Glenn Myatt Collection
