The Puzzle is finished !
Sooz and Play at the Plate both had comments on this, so here's the finished product. 1000 pieces in a 16"x14" square.
Sooz had this Branyan jersey card in a post at one time and I said I would be interested if I could find something she needed. Actually, I kinda' forgot about it. Then I sent her a Jeter card, and being younger and probably much smarter than I, she remembered ! And I'm very glad.
She also sent a few others with it.
A Luis Valbuena rookie card. It says Tribe on the card even though he's still wearing a Seattle uniform so it's a keeper.
An interesting concept, but both sides look like the back!
Unfortunately for him, a Masterpiece box break didn't go so well.
It did work for me, however, and I ended up with this red framed V-Mart.
Sooz and Beardy,
Thank you very,very much for the great cards !!

AND NOW A QUESTION FOR EVERYONE.
A new antique/collectibles shop opened up in our little village just before Christmas.
Neil and his wife Joyce own the business.Neil was a serious collector until the "crazy" period of the mid to late 90's.
He does have some very nice cards and I have made a couple purchases there.
They also have the item pictured below.
Does anyone know exactly what it is ??
The plate on the bottom reads:
No. 1 Reliance
Single Cell Dry Battery
Whitall Tatum Co.
Is it just a battery?
On the right side of the case there is a sheet of very shiny metal that is removable.
If anyone knows, please leave a comment. Thanks!!
I wanted to make sure you got the package I sent you a couple weeks ago...
ReplyDeleteI don't know what it is, but I am glad you got the cards.
ReplyDeleteI actually didn't realize that player had a different uni on. I just saw the Indians logo and threw it in the pile to send you.
Nice Putnam! Although I don't actually have any of his cards yet, I've posted about him before, follow him closely and include him as one of my "Secondary collections" in my Trading Philosophy. I may need to find some other nice Indians for you to pry it from your hands!
ReplyDeleteGrandy, you're welcome to make an offer,but I very rarely trade a Tribe card I need for my collection! Surprise me !!
