Vintage Pick Up Thread

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Jay - I know I could check, but how many Red Sox are in the T-206 set??

There are 8 Sox players in the set, two of them (Stahl and Wagner) have two variations each for a total of twelve cards:

Cincinnati is one of the larger team sets, isn't it?

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

Nice display of your Red Sox Jay.

The Reds have 23 cards in T-206. When I started I wasn't overly concerned with back condition, just wanted a presentable front and I've never been that concerned about having graded cards, helps to save some $$$$. Like I said before though, I may want to upgrade some of mine, mainly due to back conditions.

Here is a link to my Reds T-206 slideshow.

AMAZING pickups, Scott. That Cicotte is sweet!


Mailman dropped this one off today (1922 W575-1 w/ Johnson Confectionery overprint):

It goes well with its D327 cousin:

My latest pick-up is that I finally was successful in getting an avatar on here.

Chris - nice cards, as usual.

Re: OFFICIAL- Vintage Pickup Thread.

I know these cards are borderline vintage (depending on who you are talking to) but, nonetheless with these last 7 cards my 1977 Topps set is now complete. I started this set way back in summer 2004. This set was hand collected from various vintage boxes, wax packs and singles bought on ebay. Please enjoy.

Love the 77's. I started buying packs in 76. I used to sneak to the drug store to buy them. They sold thin packs in wax and thicker ones in cello that you could see through. I remember rummaging through the box looking for Phillies and Yankees on the fronts and backs.

Thanks a ton Jay, I was pumped and was going to pm you but I had a feeling you might see it on this thread.

I am very content with the price and also the player, as I have been looking for a nice Carrigan. Next up, Tris Speaker.
