Congrats John!!! Now that is an incredible pick-up. Why can't I ever find items like that at the flea market? I didn't even know that the Post cards were issued in singles, I always thought they were issued like this (or in perforated sheet form)...



Great pick-up!

Mike

The Post cards came in sheets or on boxes, which are a thicker stock. They generally came in 5 or 7 card panels on the back of boxes (like yours). The closely related Jello cards came individually on the smaller Jello boxes, but I have never seen a small snack-size Post box before. A great pick-up!

What a great Aaron box!
I've seen two or three others, all of them Alpha Bits. There was a Koufax that sold in the Legendary Bill Mastro collection auction in December.

That's an interesting panel. Two first rate broadcasters, and Lou Brock! The Cub fan in me often wonders what would have happened if we had kept that speed demon around.

I've got a couple square cornered supers, I wonder if they are hand cut.

And...... think how good the Cubs could have been with Lou and Billy Williams in the outfield together for 10 years.

Sweet Aaron, awesome centering. You should get a YL one too to boot. Looks like the light wear on the corners keep it out of a "7" holder...Here is a recent upgrade for me, decided to add a few more nicer Clemente's to my collection, I am a Pittsburgh kid after all so it's a must:

Default One of the worst trades

Yeah, 1969 NL pennant for sure, maybe a couple more that the Cards would not have won. But, at least they got a lot of use out of Ernie Broglio...man!

After being away from the hobby for 15+ years, I received my first mail day today...








Now if only I could find a '47 Bond Bread Jackie Robinson with the rounded corners, and a '51 Whitey Ford Bowman 5 or better at a nice price.

Welcome back. Nice pick-ups!!! BTW, I was away from the hobby for 15 years and in 2006 I made my first new purchase, a Koufax RC PSA 4. Looks like you're looking for HOF RC's??

Thanks! Ironically, the Koufax was first of the three that I purchased.

I'm focusing on both Jackie Robinson, and also on HOF RC's.
