Greetings from Knoxville, TN!
Hello Sports Fans,
I'm happy to be a new member and hope to add value to this board. I'm in my third wave of collecting and really enjoying it. First wave: 1976. Scouted garage sales as a 10 yo and hit the jackpot twice. Sold that collection and bought a car. Of course, I regret it, which lead to the second wave that started in 2003. Collected all Pete Rose cards in PSA 8s and 9s. Sold those and regret it. Third wave started a few weeks ago and I'm focusing on all the cards I didn't have when I was a kid, specifically Brooklyn Dodgers, 1914/15 Cracker Jacks, and completing a Topps 1957 set in near mint condition. I won't be selling again. I love this hobby. Picked up a dream card that arrived today: 1953 Bowman Color Pee Wee Reese in a high end PSA 8 without the pink print dot on the right. I hope to build some relationships here and have fun. Thanks for reading this. Cheers! Scott Last edited by spaidly; 09-27-2016 at 07:27 PM. |

Reese
Welcome on board. That is a great Reese, but it somehow does not seem right to not get both versions pf that card

Welcome to the board!
Two things... 1) Beautiful Reese. The photograph on that card belongs on a wall in a large frame. One of the best ever. 2) How is the Knoxville area? My girlfriend and I are looking to move down to Tennessee from Ohio at some point. We have never been, but have our eyes on visiting the Johnson City/Knoxville area to see if it's an area we'd like to live.

Expensive Variation
Quote:
...yeah , the 1953 Bowman Black/White var. is pricey. Doesn't come up very often .But you really need both. This is a set-completion crowd. .. |

Are you telling me there is a Reese in the B&W set? Never seen that. Google here I come. The Casey Stengal in that set is really cool. I have 2 Dodgers from that set. I thought Al was referring to owning the color Reese with the print dot issue in addition the one I just acquired. Setting the controls for the heart of the sun...
