Upgraded my ‘72 Lefty. I still think this is one of the most underrated cards of the 1970’s. The only card from his fabled 27-10 season to feature Carlton as a Phillie, and nice copies can easily be had for less than $50. Imagine if Nolan Ryan had a high-number “Traded” card from ‘72...

Soon to be included in my 1961 Topps for trade thread , I couldn't pass this Santo up. Man, qualifier or not, this high grade HOF rookie card is just the slightest hair off-center top to bottom. Looks pretty damn sweet to me...

I can't understand why that card has an "OC" qualifier. Looks outstanding to me and CERTAINLY not "OC". Very nice!

Me, too. Apparently it was all because Fregosi was in the first series, so he was 'wrongly' pictured as an Angel, but Ryan came in the later series and Topps was able to picture him on his new team.

Incoming today. Thanks eBay bucks! I will say it again - always have thought the ‘61s are under appreciated in comparison to ‘65 or ‘67 Topps. At least on the ones with caps - the portrait shots are generally pretty good.

Technically not new pick ups, but case breaks/resubmissions. The Berra was previously graded a BVG 6 and got a PSA 5 while the Musial was previously graded a BVG 5.5 and received a PSA 5. All in all, pretty happy the PSA grades were very close to the BVG grades.
P.S. These are from when I first began dumping my savings into buying cards and didn't understand what I was doing (hence the off-centering) and I was merely buying the grade, not the card! These cards are honestly a bit of an eye sore to me now due to the bad centering, despite how cool they are. |

I've been doing a series called "Cardboard Cooperstown" on the blog where I choose the best looking card of every Hall of Famer. As you can imagine, it's hard to write about all these great cards without buying one or two.
For my money this Campy card comes about as close to a perfect card as any. Finally pulled the trigger. s-l1600.jpg

Great card. Much more appealing than Hank's Topps products, in my opinion. Kind of a tough number in that regional set, as well. Congrats. |

This Aaron had been on my want list forever. Had small pittance left over after taxes and was able to pull the trigger.

Yeah it happens, don't feel bad. I have a '61 #578 All Star that I got a few months ago that in retrospect I paid a bit too much for. It's a PSA 5, but is centered perfectly. "A perfectly centered Mantle" I keep telling myself. Most of the time that works...

I bought a small collection and was thrilled to end up with a pretty clean one of these. (Curious what you think it would grade as.)
Ended up with many other HOFers and commons from era, but this was by far the biggest score of the bunch. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Not an easy find so I'll live with the centering. Amazing color in hand.
