Actually, the arcade was free. Here were my pickups:

Stopped by SMP in Grapevine on Monday and bought 100 jersey and auto cards from their 2/$5 box.


Friday show pickups: 1952 Topps House (slightest bit of red on tongue) and Garagiola, 1960 Mays with extra brown bar variation, 1910 era postcard with ball glued to bat for prop, and oversized basketball jersey relic (freebie for entry).


Saturday pickups: Down to like 3 needed for 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set. One of these had a crease I didn't notice...d'oh. Two Scoops of historical aviators: Chuck Yeager and Jimmy Doolittle. Armour "Mantel" blue coin. Don Mattingly jersey piece for only $2. And bought the 1952 and 1953 Eddie Robinson cards from Scott Brockelman's table since the 98-year-old was there signing them. Great signature for a nonagenarian.


Eddie Robinson signing the cards.

Got to meet a bunch of boardmembers and companies I've bought from before on eBay: Leon, midmo, Rich Klein, Scott B, Rhys Yeakley, skeeve214, and many more.
