June 2012 Baseball Pickups

Otto doesn't look too happy.

Gotta love Grover Hartley: Had a great baseball name, plus he served the game for 24 years as a player, coach, manager, AND umpire.

Those are seriously nice cards. (And an interesting rendering of WaJo.)

The relentless march of the commons continues unabated. Don't get in my way if you know what's good for you! Just place the blurry 30's, 40's, and 50's (or 2's, 3's, and 4's) in my bidding way and then step aside. I eat them up like Pac-Man. I'll realize eventually that I'm over-spending. But 'til then, I'll have fun.

Did a deal with a nice gent to get 7 high-grade C46 cards, all freshly graded by BVG. Here are the two highest graded ones, each receiving an 8:

Wasn't even familiar with that set previously, but those cards are fantastic. I really like the lighted hue of the left border contrasted with the dark hue on the outer.

Thank you, sir! I have a few other C46 cards, including a lesser grade (but still nice) Iron Man McGinnity. C46 was the only Canadian tobacco baseball set, featuring players of the Eastern/International League.

It's the Joe Jackson T202, were you able to get it at a decent price?

Good Stuff

lee you would know best. It's in great shape I paid 148$ from a non card dealer on ebay I think I just wanted one. i don't even collect T202's!!

randomly picked this one up recently.....will likely use it as Bender bait at some point, but for now I'm enjoying having it in my collection!

Nice Pick up Ben

Nice Ben!

That looks like a really good price for the condition, decent ones seem to go around $200.
