I am really pleased to pick up this '33 Goudey of Moe Berg. There is a neat story behind him if anyone is interested, one link is here:

There are other sources of info about him but this one is short enough for a quick read and the basics.

RC nice 33' goudey!

Here are 3 more for my '56 set. Please enjoy.

Thanks Gray,

Berg has a neat background and is a fairly in-demand card of a non-star player.

I enjoy watching your sets grow towards completion.

For those that haven't read it, "The Catcher Was a Spy" is a very entertaining read, imo.

Wow you almost have that set complete. Great job so far. I am looking forward to seeing all the Goudey's together in your bucket! You are on the final lap and the white flag is out! GL with the rest of the set!

While I'd love to fully complete the '33 Goudey set, it isn't likely with the high dollar cards remaining. Namely the Lajoie, 3 Ruths and another Gehrig, but I would like to get to 235. I was lucky to get some major cards from the set in my original purchase and I certainly enjoy those.......you never know though, maybe I'll get lucky at a garage sale or something!!

It's been a while since I picked up a tobacco card. I'm feeling better now!

My latest T205, leaving only 4 to go. Not overly fond of the diamond cut, but I'm still grateful to have it.

I am working on a buy that would bring anout 8 cards to my TTM arsenal... I hope I can get them cheap

 

[TBTwinsFan]

I just picked up a TON of vintage for $15 twards my TTM autograph collection:


67 Bud Harrleson
66 Don Mossi
66 Jim Fregosi
(IDK the years on these but they are a Johnny Kucks and a Ty Cline)
58 Bob Skinner
61 (I think) Bob Leppert
(Again IDK the year but it is a Johnny Groth... 59 I think)

And he offered to throw in an IP auto of Leppert as well.

Pretty awesome deal! I am happy with it and all these guys are great signers!

Thanks to scotty21690 for having this card in his signature as I had never seen it until then and had to get one. More of a pain to find than I thought.

Johnny B......Thought it interesting that you posted your 1935 Goudey 4 in 1 card on 5/23 and I won this one on 5/22!
