Stunners

My nicest E103...


Probably my sharpest remaining Goudey from a centering and sharpness standpoint


Probably doesn't belong in this thread, but I haven't posted him in a while, so ...


Recently sold (and miss) this one... It was probably my best "stunner"

Nice Bender, Brian!


(Shuffles off to go play with beat up cards... )

beat up cards can still be stunners.

Great, great cards guys.

Keith- WOW!! As a 19th century collector, those two define "stunner" for me.

Jay- You are certainly right about the lower grade cards. That E107 Wagner posted in an earlier thread absolutely stunned me.

If you've collected or handled R308s, you are aware that the quality of images are usually crap. This is the cleanest image I have ever seen on an R308. Picked it up at a non-sports show...

I can't imagine a better looking r308. Truly amazing card.

Thanks Jay.

Now see if you can talk your brother into selling me his Piedmont Art Stamps

Mike

Beautiful tough backs Jim.

thanks E
I got SGC to review the Jennings and they put it in a 50 holder. I'll try and post some more later. Have to take my teenager to driving class or is she taking me? going

the wajo is FRESH (i think that's what the kids are saying these days)

nice to see you posting here Kinipopo-you are one of my favorites in the hobby.


Q,
I have a lot of weight (230) but I doubt SGC cares any.

Love that E93 Leach, kind of a majestic pose.

Amazing cards! Thanks for sharing.

Stunners are a little rare in my collection. (I could add a bunch to the Beater thread.)
These are about as stunning as I can get:

i love ole hackster.

nice blog, i enjoyed the piece on the e93 waddell, one of my favorite poses. thanks for the accompanying photo it came from.

Thanks Bob. I love writing about pre-war cards.
One day I'll be able to get my hands on a Waddell, but not until after my Christmas credit card bill is paid next year.

Peter, I have a lower grade one that I'd sell/trade ya

BTW, I enjoyed your blog as well. Welcome aboard!

What did a Sports Writer once say about Hack Wilson.
Something to the effect " Built Like a Beer Barrell and not unfamilar with it contents"

Georgeous 50, especially for a Coupon.

Wow! Now that is a stunner!

How could I forget the nicest Piedmont Art Stamp I have ever seen:
