I cleaned out my card room today.

Cleaning out the card room is always an exercise in
futility, since even though it's clean, it's still a
mess.
That said, whenever you clean out the card room you're bound to find some cool things you'd either lost or forgotten about, and today was no exception. I found:
- My checkbook. Heh
- A 1979 Kelloggs set
- The envelope from my 1934 Gold Medal Foods find
- A 1936 R311 Dizzy Dean
- A Jackie Robinson youth model glove
- My badge from the National
So there you go.
I lost out on an N29 Buck Ewing this past week. I didn't realize I wanted an N29 Buck Ewing, but I decided that I want a Cap Anson and a Buck Ewing, maybe even before I get an N162 Kelly. I don't know why.
So I set a high snipe for the Ewing and got my doors blown off.
I'm very intrigued by the 19th Century stuff lately. Can't wait til the spring auctions.

Just got this team cabinet, of a team from Medford,
New Jersey.
The photo quality is so crisp and unblemished, the corners are so sharp, and the overall image quality is so strong, I'm inclined to think this is a modern print, spray mounted on a vintage mount. Knowing nothing about photos, I have no idea what to look for.
What do you guys think?
