Beautiful, Danny! What was the grade of the one that arrived smashed?

It was a PSA 5. I paid more for that one, but substantially more.
However, this card looks very nice for a SGC 4, so I'm satisfied with it.

did you ever get the smashed one worked out with the po

I settled up with ebay and got my money back. I sent the card back to the seller ( with ebay's intervention)and let him deal with the PO, which was fair, as it was his fault (partially) for poor packaging. With that said, I've had numerous graded cards arrive in the same type mailers with no damage.
I REALLY would have liked to have had that first card.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Dano - I'm glad you finally got your Mantle, it looks fantastic.

Also looking forward to seeing the Aaron and the completion of your set. Pretty good week!!

Here are 2 recent pickups: '33 Goudey of Walter Brown, another checked off the list.
Brown is card #192 and I think it is also 192 of 240 Goudeys for me, just found that interesting.

The Leaf Kluszewski is pretty sweet for me, I had looked at Nationals for one and they were either too costly or pretty poor condition, this one was perfect for my collecting tastes.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Thanks Jay - Great pickup for you on the Cicotte. I just finished reading "Burying the Black Sox" by Gene Carney. It's a pretty good read, gets more into the coverup of management who wanted to keep their $$$$ coming in.

It brings out more info I think than some of the previous studies.

Wow Scotty - That is a sweet Cobb, I have just a few exhibits but none that nice.

Edit: Looks like the Cobb is really "EbayAddicts", congrats! I looked to quickly I guess.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Picked up only the Marquard PSA 4 on the left. #94 in the set for me. If anyone can crop this so it just has that card in the pic, I would be grateful.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

VERY nice Rube! #94 huh? Very impressive!

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

WOW....some great additions by everyone in the past day!
Exhibit cards are overlooked by collectors, too often. Seeing that Cobb will probably get some of us interested.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Thanks for the scan, Scotty! Almost to 100, and I might have a line on my favorite card in the set for the next one I pick up. I'll show it if I get a deal made.

Thank you!
I don't know whether to go after the '67 set or the '64 set next. The '64 set would keep me in sequence, as I already have '63. The '67 would complete all of the odd year sets of the 60's.

Well if you decide to go for either, I've got dupes from both sets that I could try to help you out with. And again congrats on the completion. It feels good to complete a set you've been working on forever

Junior Griffey · Aug 22, 2009

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

do the '64 set, and then get the rest of the 60's in order.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Congrats on the '62 set.............(tuff borders and all). Beautiful T206 cards, the colors make that set a real treat for the eyes.
