February 2008 Pickups

Your quite welcome Quan.

Quan was able to get that B&W, because Mark picked it up for him, to make sure he'd get it. That is quite the gesture if you ask me.

I did see the E97 B/W that Eric was selling as soon as he listed it. To tell you the truth i thought Quan had a B/W Schlei already and was buying the E97 B/W for myself but soon after i bought it i look at my records and noticed it was not on the bunch i sold Quan last year. I figure why take the chance that someone would grab it fast, if Quan needed it then it would be his and if not then i would keep it. So Quan gets it for his nice collection at the same price i paid.

Quan: The B/W Schlei does look very, very nice for a SGC 10. I know the edges and corners are a bit rough but the picture looks fabulous. Congrats Quan and hope you complete the B/W set......just stop taking these out of the holder!!!!!

Kevin, those GAI 'Double Name' designated cards are cool!

Wonka, great T206 pickups lately, wow! That Brain is one helluva 50!

Here's my only/lonely pickup for the month:

Hey Trae, welcome to the board.

Thank you, Eric!

You're quite welcome. Hey believe it or not, I've kind of gotten back into T206's. Didn't think that would happen. I'll post them as I get them.

Here's one I picked up in a trade last night with Dan Koteles. He thought he was going to get a trimmed BL460 in a trade, but that one fell through. At least he picked this up, which I should be getting around Friday. BTW - this one ties my PSA 6 Ames as my highest grade with this back.

Damn slabheads

This card is a little out of the box for me but it struck a nerve with me and I had to have it. Whats cooler than a 72 year old card with a young Leo the Lip as a player for the Gas House Gang honing his craft, that we would still be seeing 40yrs later.

Great card. There are some really neat multi-player cards in that set.

Jay

Wow, that R313 is a really nice card!

Thanks guys, I had to have it when I saw it, I remember watching the Lip, jaw with umpires my entire life. That card shows me you can enjoy this hobby without always spending mucho denaro for a card.

Picked this guy up in a recent 1 for 1 E107 blockbuster trade with fellow board member Jeff Prizner. I know this card has changed hands quite a bit over the past few years, but it has a happy home with me now. I will let him reveal his end if he'd like (kinda obvious anyway). Very smooth deal and we're both very happy with our new cards, so it was a great swap all around! Thanks Jeff!

very happy too! Thanks Ben!

Wow! What a switchero!

Ben, you giving up on the Plank collection?

Nope, but I did get a jump start on my Joss collection

I'll be hanging on to my other Planks for sure. Still a few caramels of his I'd like to track down (e93, CJ, e90-1).

The dynasty that a tattered and torn (thanks Jay) Mack had to reluctantly break up. Four pennants in five years.

hello from the other side of the atlantic...eric/mark my plane didn't crash on the way so it's looking like you guys might have to ship me those cards, but there's always the flight back.

this looks about the same as the psa3 by wayne varner...and thank you to ebay for the 10% off total.

Where did you go....is it vacation or business? By the way...got the E97 B/W from Eric and it looks very nice for a SGC 10


Mark

Glad you made it safe to your destination Quan. Your E97 Murray is safe with me.

my replacement for the t216 Virginia Extra Bridwell I'm trying to sell



Jay

Two more Delongs for the collection



Jay

Jay,

Those Delongs remind me of a time a couple years ago when you beat me out for a HOFer on eBay for under $20. I can't remember who it was though. I was so shocked it went for so little.

Is this the card?
