T206 Top Line Pitchers
OK, so I decided not to get rid of everything, just most of it and my T206s are staying put.
I'm going to stay focused on the portraits for now. I've always been a fan of the pitchers in baseball, especially the pre-war guys. If you were to put together a list of the cream of the crop pitchers in the T206 set, who do you come up with? I have to scan the overall T206 list but the ones I come up with are:
-Cy Young
-Walter Johnson
-Christy Mathewson
-Mordecai Brown (maybe?)
Any other input or thoughts? As it is, since I've been selling some stuff I never thought would sell, I'm one portrait card short of having the four listed above once the Mathewson arrives in a few days.
Mel-That Rickey you sent is going to be one of the probably less than 50 modern cards I'll be holding onto.

Those shouldn't be too bad. I might not be remembering correctly but it seems I see all of those frequently enough.

I'll probably notice them a lot more now that I'll be looking. I just picked up (currently on the way) the Matty from there and I got my Young from there as well. I'd rather sit and wait for one to pop up there than use ebay anymore. Ebay is now what I use (for my PC vintage) if I hit an impatient patch.
I have noticed, as I'm sure you have as well, that the '34 Goudey's don't pop up a whole lot over there!

Yeah, there are a couple of cards that fall in the "Yeah right buddy" category for my T206 portrait project.

PM sent my friend.
As for the '34 Goudeys RLE, you're right, not much to choose from lately.

I was wondering this as well.
