In March, I welcomed my first child into this world. When I got home from the hospital with my adorable little boy, I was greeted by a package from Brian Powell with the gift of four of his incredible custom cards. These aren't exactly "vintage", but they are well at home in my safe among my other Mantles.

Please pardon the picture quality, but I did not want to take/share anything that others could then re-use. Thanks Brian!

Chris, you are most welcome, my friend. I am just so happy for you and your wife, and glad to hear everyone's A-OK!. I am so pleased your fantasy 1954 Wilson Franks cards arrived at your home the day you brought your wife and son home!

Just being picky, but is that spot on Jack's forehead in the pinkish-lavender background version just a dust fleck, or did I somehow miss that? Please let me know because I want you to have a "good" one.

Thanks for the compliment, Zach, I worked long and hard with two computer graphic artists on those cards! I am very pleased with how they turned out. Funny, sort of, but I designed them with the precise same borders as the original Wilsons. During the cutting process, the sheets "traveled" just a tsch, but it was a tsch too much, creating the same off-center problem as on the original 1954 Wilson Franks. I had specially-chosen semi-gloss card stock, to replicate the original sheen. When the printing was done, there were no more sheets to do any more to try to get more centered cards!!!!

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I shan't translate, because Leon Luckey would heartily disapprove of my language, which I try not to use those words anyway, but oh was I irritated.)

While not earth shattering, these are some solid ex-exmt pick ups and mark some decent progress for my '65 Topps set. I have focus issues, and this set has been on the backburner for a while. For the last month or so, however, I have been starting to think I might actually finish eventually. It will be pretty nice when I am finished. I am also sharing these because they are from Greg Morris Cards, and there was at least one thread asking about his auctions. No problems here.

Really nice looking 1965s. I will also offer my endorsement of Greg Morris cards. Have never spent big dollars there, but the few cards I got there matched the scans and looked great.

Terrific piece! It's odd but there are a few OPC tattoos that are insanely tough. For example, I've owned a couple unopened Mantle auto balls but only seen one portrait. You seem to be on fire lately. Congrats!

Great P/U's, SFMS! Congrats on being so close to completing your set! That must be a great feeling.

These 3 arrived Friday. A big shout out to KCRfan1 (Lou) who not only gave me a great deal, he also absorbed a big hunk of the shipping and threw in this signed Johnny Bench team card for me!

Can't thank you enough, Lou! 2 big cards for me knocked off my want list! :)

Thank you Irv, while statistically the end is near, I have a long, long ways to go in regards to the cards I am still needing.

Beautiful centering on your sharp looking new Rosen, that is one of the toughest low numbers. The RR is pretty sharp looking too.

Thanks!

I just noticed, looking at Rosen's left side, the Indian looks different to me and there also seems to be spot/portion of the card in that area that didn't see any ink?
The only other cards I own that show that area somewhat are, Lemon and Garcia, and all 3 look different to me? (Posting all 3 pics for easier comparison)

Any thoughts as to why?

The Lemon and Garcia, at least in the scans, look fairly similar. The logo on the Rosen is different ....not sure if it is due to the Lemon and Garcia being from a different series than the Rosen?

That might have something to do with it, or I was thinking home/away jerseys, maybe?

The Lemon Indian logo almost looks like the Indian is wearing a hat with a feather in it, while the Indian on Garcia's sleeve looks like it has combed hair and is wearing a wide yellow sweat band.

Either way, like you say, they are different than the Rosen Indian for some reason so I am going to have to dig into this further to see what I can come up with?

Didn't really have any luck, other than to say, the one on Garcia's sleeve doesn't look like any that I could find.

The Rosen logo looks faded or it was imposed later maybe as there is something clearly going on there where that pointed section is clearly, imo, not a part of his jersey. From the looking I did, all his copies have this same error/anomaly.

Was that a recent purchase, Zach? I was following one on E-Bay not that long ago but missed the closing.:mad:

I agree with you, and although I am not familiar with a lot of other sets, I'd say this set likely has the most?

Curious, what's your take on that Rosen card I posted? To me it looks like something was added to the pick (a layover?) before they decided on the final one they'd go with?

Nice card Irv. Yes, this was a recent purchase......I don't know if the '52 Topps set has the most variations - there are certainly a number of other sets with quite a few variations. Maybe others with more experience in the set like Patrick or Ted can chime in.

I was going to add, but I seen you edited your post, Zach, and that is, all the Rosen cards seem to be the same.
It looks like something is odd not only above the Indian on Rosen's left arm/sleeve, but it also looks like something else, like another jersey, below it too?
Either way, it is something we'll likely never be able find out definitively? :confused:

I also love these cards, and after I purchased the one I just posted, I said to myself, I bet I already have that one? :o

After just adding and checking my collection in my Net54 link below, I was glad to see I didn't. When I see these card in Ex+ condition (imo) I don't think straight! ;)

Thanks Jason.:)

I seen the same card a short while ago but didn't win it. Another one popped up, (the one I won) a couple weeks later and surprisingly I won it.

I keep telling myself to stick to 52 Topps cards but when I see cards like this, for a decent price, I just can't help myself. :D

Just a heads up about this 52 Mantle I seen just now. First sale ever for this seller, which, I guess someone's got to start somewhere, but as far as I know, there is no Monterey Canada, or at least that I could find.:confused: Could mean Montreal or California I suppose, but it does seem fishy to me?

Yes, that Mantle is almost certainly a scam. The same seller "has" the Ruth that just sold in the PWCC auction on April 10.

Didn't see the Ruth but just noticed this Clemente and a 51 Bowman Mantle RC too.

Some serious money, to me anyways, has already been bid on these cards. :mad:

It's the same one that the member here just sold. Hopefully he gets shut down!

Nice card, Dave!



Thanks Jason.:)

I seen the same card a short while ago but didn't win it. Another one popped up, (the one I won) a couple weeks later and surprisingly I won it.

I keep telling myself to stick to 52 Topps cards but when I see cards like this, for a decent price, I just can't help myself. :D

Just a heads up about this 52 Mantle I seen just now. First sale ever for this seller, which, I guess someone's got to start somewhere, but as far as I know, there is no Monterey Canada, or at least that I could find.:confused: Could mean Montreal or California I suppose, but it does seem fishy to me?

Fake listings from the scammer have been removed. :)

Congratulations, Dan, on acquiring a regal beauty of a regal man. Getting this baby on around the 70th anniversary of his MLB debut is sweet.

A flat out marvelous pick-up. Thanks for sharing with us, and again, congratulations!!!!!!:D

Bit of a surprise pickup at the Strongsville Vintage show today. Wasn't really looking for it, but it was hard to pass up.
The fact that it was from one of my favorite and most trusted Dealers made it all the better.

Typical centering for the issue, but boy the image is just *incredible* in-person. :D

A couple, very cheap, recent P/U's.

A Gaylord Perry :o and another multi-player card for my collection.

The 1962 is actually Perry's RC, but the 1963 is still a great 2nd year.

Thanks, Jason.

I knew that too as I have seen his RC multiple times but didn't clue in as I was bidding. :o

These just arrived today. Super glad to finally have these ones in my collection, especially my first signed 52 Topps cards. (Charley Maxwell Auth Auto)

Hats of to Rman444! We have been experiencing torrential downpours all day and I was hoping these cards wouldn't pick today to arrive, but, as luck would have it, they did. :eek:

Needless to say, Rman444, packaged/wrapped them like nothing I have seen before! The outside bubble wrap was soaked, but none of the cards inside another layer of plastic were wet, thankfully :)

Thanks again, Rman444!

Edit: Just noticed, is it Charley or Charlie? Looks like his sig is Charlie, but noticed some of his other cards are spelt the same way too?:confused:
