Stormy day one card mailday!

[scotty21690]

Was storming when I woke up and has been stormy for the past few hours....yuck! Got a nice one card mailday from Baggers Sportscards for $100 shipped to brighten up my day ....been looking at this one for a WHILE and finally pulled the trigger:







Love the bold red color on this one!! My first E96 and my first Arellanes! He was a 3 year member of the Red Sox and in 1909 he led the league in saves [9] and had 16 wins!

FRANK ARELLANES

Thanks for looking

Forgot to mention that in my post, Tony...you have been thanked!


pghbuccos - Huge thanks, Dave! It's a great looking card in person (even with the caramel stains )...my scanner does not do it justice! Gotta love the rosy red cheeks


Daveyou - Thanks Dave! I know my maildays are few and far between nowdays but I try to make them worthwhile

Most awesome pickup, Scotty! :shock:
Waaaaaaaaay better than a Bryce Harper.

 

[scotty21690]

Thanks a ton James, Stu, & Dave!

I agree that it is better than a Harper....you don't ever see Harper cards covered in caramel! (Plus he don't play for the Red Sox! :twisted: )



Next mailday I will show the progress of my 1910/11/12 Red Sox lineup, as I will be adding a new name. Still need a damned Smokey Joe though!

Dave -

Would like to get at least one card of every 09/10/11 Sox player in a Sox uni...I'll have to get a checklist going.
