July Pickups

Just back from Jersey

Nice "Wild Bill" Jerry. Here's a few T206 Hof's just in.
Tony

Nice Cards Tony, Looks like I have a new Competitor for mid-Grade T206 Hofers.
Theres plenty for everybody.

More than halfway through the month and still no bunnies awarded?

Thanks to Jay Behrens:

freakin' steve jinxed me ...anyways no more buys this year besides e97 b/ws i need!!! #12...took 3-4 tries on this same card but finally got it.

I figured this would show well with the Bob Rhoades T206 Polar Bear wet sheet transfer I just picked up in the
19th Century only auction. Now all I need to find is a player with a Sweet Caporal wet tranfer to go with these.

An SGC 50 card with lajoie on it for cheap. Middle Panels get no respect, unless it's the Cobb Slide. I ain't complaining.

I already posted this on the long-running T206 thread on CU, so my apologies to those of you I also see there, but I'm just so stoked about this card - my first big buy after a bit of a remodeling-induced hiatus:

Nice Uzit Steve. Definitely my favorite looking back in T206.
This Willard Chocolate arrived yesterday.

Well my drought lasted a month and a half. I recently picked up 4 Cycle 460s to add to the collection:

Congrats Steve on that Uzit.

I picked one up as well in a trade. It's an SGC 30 Manning. I will post scans when it gets here.

Nice. What's crazy is that both my Uzits are the two different St. Louis Lakes. Potentially crazier is that I might trade one of my Victorys for a Drum. Joe Lake, needless to say.

st. louis--land of a thousand lakes.

...meh the joke worked better in my head.

i kinda liked it.

I have this D381 Bancroft on the way as part of a recently completed trade. Excited about it! Great portraits in this set.

Great Card Ben
I finally added a Speaker to my Collection.

Ben,

Very nice Bancroft. If I remember correctly, the Fleischmanns are a lot tougher than the Fergusons, is that correct?

Thanks,

AndyH

Nice pick up Jerry, looks like a great VG. I love the red in those Red Sox, T202s.

Lee

Thanks Lee,
It is a high end 40, It just has a light crease down the middle, barely noticeable that brings the grade down.

Thanks Andy. I think it's the other way around actually. There isn't much difference between the two outside of a line of text. But the Fergusons are much tougher. Amazing photograpgy in this set, very detailed portraits of many of the aging deadball hofers. Even Matty is in the set! Never seen it. Look at the Evers:



ps. thanks Jerry

A couple Southern League error-cuts



Some more error cuts



A few yellowless cards (some may have been shown raw before) and a miscut:



A T207 quad cut:




More to come.
