I purchased a complete 30-card, 3rd-series set off of ebay for $9.99 (+$4.00 shipping). At 50 cents a card I couldn't pass it up.

8. 1895 J&P Coats Uniforms of the US Army (H606) #NNO 1888-1893 Campaign Dress
I stepped up on this one. I paid $17.99 (plus $3.49 shipping). I'm not sure if I overpaid for this one or not. I really like this card and while researching it, I couldn't find another example on any of the auction sites I follow.

9. 1886 Beautiful Birds of America (J1) #26 Common American Crow
Another antique store find. Despite already being over budget for February, I couldn't pass these up. I bought five Church and/or Dwight cards for under $5.00. There not in the best of condition but I figure I'd better buy them when I see them.

10. 1898 Dwight's Soda Interesting Animals (J10) #42 Yak
I will complete this set. I'll probably have to get both the Church & Co. and John Dwight & Co. sets. Damn my OCD! |

wow those are beautiful cards! I just got lucky and found around a 100+ in a baggie at my local thrift store. Has a little bit of everything in in Dwights (arm and hammer) form a couple fish series a couple dairy series, some interesting animals some minis and a butt load of the bird series. and around 25 sugar daddy comic cards from 1953. I'm trying to find some checklists for some like the dairy series and the fish series. | ||
