Good Morning Card Collectors! I hope everyone had Good Morning Card Collectors! I hope everyone had a good Mother's day.

One of the many things Lou Gehrig was known for was having a strong bond with his mother.  In 1927 Gehrig presented his mother with this "Hello Mother" trophy that was awarded to him on a barnstorming tour stop in Lima, Ohio.  The Trophy now sits as part of the Lou Gehrig exhibit in the baseball Hall of Fame.

Also pictured, a couple of Lou Gehrig cards that I own: 1934 Goudey no. 61 SGC 3 and a pretty scarce 1929 R315 PSA 4

Ugly cards need love too!  BABE RUTH & GEORGE SISL Ugly cards need love too!  BABE RUTH & GEORGE SISLER, Couple of beat up, relatively obscure sets.

BABE RUTH 1924 W-UNC (1926 W511) Hand Cut Strip Card no. 1 SGC AUTH. YANKEES HOF.  SGC has this labeled as 1924 W-UNC, which has a total pop of 5 SGC graded examples.  The card appears identical to the 1926 W511, which has a pop around 20 total at SGC and 23 over at PSA.  As far as I can tell, there is no 1924 W-UNC listed in the PSA database. Any additional insight anybody might have would always be appreciated.

GEORGE SISLER 1921-22 W575-1 Hand Cut Throwing SGC 1 ST LOUIS BROWNS HOF. Super rare card/obscure set!  Only a handful listed at both SGC and PSA.

CAPTAIN JACK GLASSCOCK 1895 "Black Beauty" N300 Ma CAPTAIN JACK GLASSCOCK 1895 "Black Beauty" N300 Mayo's Cut Plug Tobacco PSA 1.5 Pittsburgh Variation. 
.
The 1895 N300 Mayo's Cut Plug set consists of 48 cards; 40 players plus 8 variations.  Produced between 1894-1895 by P.H. Mayo & Brother Tobacco Company, each card measures 1-5/8"x2-7/8", and could be found packaged in with Plug tobacco (a densely packed "plug" of tobacco, that could be separated and then chewed or smoked).  The set is absolutely loaded with Hall of Famers, including Big Ed Delahanty, Hugh Duffy (also in the T206 set), Buck Ewing, Billy Hamilton, Dan Brouthers, John Clarkson, Tommy McCarthy, Kid Nichols, Wilbert Robinson, Amos Rusie, John Ward, and Cap Anson.  The bold black borders on this set has earned it the nickname "Black Beauty", and also makes it one of the more visually appealing 19th Century baseball card sets.
The 8 variations are:
Dan Brouthers, Baltimore Orioles
Dan Brouthers, Louisville Colonels
Buck Ewing, Cleveland Spiders
Buck Ewing, Cincinnati Reds
Captain Jack Glasscock, Pittsburgh Pirates

Nice small collection of the 1974 Luaghlin Old-Tim Nice small collection of the 1974 Luaghlin Old-Time Black Stars set, includes Josh Gibson, Satchel Paige, Oscar Charleston, Cool Papa Bell, Buck Loenard, and quite a few other Hall of Famers.
The 1974 Laughlin Old-Time Black Stars was created by artist R.G. Laughlin as an homage to the under-appreciated stars of baseball's Negro Leagues. 22 out of the 36 players are Hall of Famers. At the time of production, only 4 players in the set had been inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

A couple of nice Clementes to end the weekend: 195 A couple of nice Clementes to end the weekend:
1957 Topps no.76 PSA 6
1966 Venezuela Topps no. 300 PSA 1.5

Clemente is widely regarded as a top 5 all time defensive outfielder, and was also consistently dominant at the plate, boasting a .317 career average. He also seemed to only get better with age. His last 4 seasons, (his 15th through 18th seasons in the mlb), he hit .345, .352, .341, and .312 respectively. Who knows how long he would have played had he not died tragically in 1972.

Thanks to Frank from Houston for the deal that bro Thanks to Frank from Houston for the deal that brought me this E121 George Sisler SGC 1.5. Great card from one of the truly underappreciated players in the hobby.

Tied with Lou Gehrig for 19th all time career batting average, at .340.

Hit over .400 twice, with his best season coming in 1920, where he batted .407 with 19 home runs and 122 rbi's

Also played with speed, he led the American League in stolen bases 4 times.
