February Pickup Thread

For the non MT'rs
Cutting into the card budget severely but it's a nod to my mom who wanted one since '10

Going to be a little research project when it arrives... In other words, I'm really not sure.

I've spent too much time researching this already. Those other two gents look so familiar, but I just can't come up with a name. I even checked the 1920s-1930s leaderboards and cross-reference names with images. No dice. Perhaps they are auto execs, as the caption suggests?

This photo was taken by the Post's automotive editor Allan C. Whitehead.

Would love to hear the names if you ever find out.

I looked a little as well and that is the best idea I could come up with too.

Very nice Michael.

Thanks!
Here's a piece I've been holding back on from MojoDan. An amazing card in hand. DAN IS ONE HECK OF A GUY

Had you seen this picture in the past, or did you mean looking now that I posted it? I started a thread on it and will see what I can find although I'm not really sure how one even goes about trying to ID images of people when it seems like it could be anyone. If you don't mind educating me, what are the "leaderboards"?

Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to look. Definitely please let me know if you ever come across anything.

Nothing else pending at the moment

Yesterday's mail, yesterday's buy and mail from a few days ago.

Reached $35 over what I really wanted to go, oh well my bad. Still a unique 1/1 dual logo.

Sick! Don't think I've ever seen that kind of card!

 

[JoshHamilton]

I now have all of Stantons RC logo cards in 9.5. I used the Topps Factory Set instead of the base Topps because it's vertical.

This will have to suffice until I can find a knob

 

[forgerelli]

intensely hoping the Rivera Strata turns out to be a keeper.

Sorry...



At least Topps can't ruin his signature.

Hey Scott, mine is still pending. Too bad! I would have even been happy with a pinstriped swatch. Anyway, will be looking to move mine once it comes back.

My pickups for February…many of these should bring back memories for most folks (both good and bad). Ha.

There have been 896 first-year Bowman Chrome autographs released to this point and I’m getting close to having all of them.

 

[JoshHamilton]

Picked up the red. Nice little WBC logo mini rainbow. Also picked up the blue yesterday

Man Jimmy freaking Gobble, I completely forgot about him. He was quite the sensation for a minute there.

Too frick'in cool! Good luck w/ the rest.

Yeah...and then the minute was gone.

[Brewer Andy]

Been focused more on going through the Brewers all-time roster looking for autos so I've been spending a lot of time on TTMs and searching for HTF autos but I have grabbed these:

Like these but the execution could be better. I'll take it for $12

Early plate from '98 and my first Cirillo pick up in almost 6 months!
