Picked up a couple of Mantles. The Post Canadian will be up for sale once it arrives. I already have one but could not resist a rare variation at a decent price.

Okay, so not exactly cards but picked up two Mantle related items. The first is a Japanese made flower planter that is supposed to depict Mantle. The resemblance is horrible but the price is right. The second is a game used baseball from Game 7 of the 1952 World Series, where Mantle hit his second World Series home run and the Yankees won the game. I've got a ball from Game 6 so I had to have this one.

Just received this one in today's mail. Man, I'm having a ton of fun finding these 50's-60's mid grade gems. Centering doesn't get any better on this card.

Wow! Great looking '55 Ted you have there Dean! That card is always hard to find centered. Doesn't get any better than that. Congrats!

My God, some beautiful cards this month. How can you not be romantic about baseball? How can you not wax poetic about this hobby?

The thing that warms my heart is seeing these really gorgeous examples that are so much better than their numerical grade would imply. You can't reduce a baseball cards to a series of subgrades. You just can't. It goes to show what an experienced collector can find when they are patient. There are some real gems out there that look so much than higher-graded, more expensive

You guys inspire me. I am beyond ready to start collecting again.

Congrats Mike -- such a tough card to find even close to centered. That's a really nice example befitting your collection!

This is my favorite pick up in a long while. Nice '61 Bell Brand Duke Snider. Much nicer than the PSA 7 I had my eye on for quite some time.

Ive never seen this card before and it is stunning! Might have to file that away in the memory banks to get one day. Beautiful color and picture. Reminds me of the 53 Bowman Color.

Great looking card. It certainly looks to be under graded to me. I can see why it beat the PSA 7. Centering and overall eye-appeal makes that card pop! Congrats.

If memory serves, the jingle for the Bell Brand snack chip company was, "IF IT'S BELL, IT'S SWELL!". You sure got yourself a swell Snider.

Such a peaceful, serene backdrop to go with that cool-looking, elegant full-length portrait of Duke. I could look at that card all day. Congratulations bro, and thanks for sharing your joy with us.

I honestly am not trying to railroad anything or anybody, but you might be interested in hearing that I devoted chapter 10 of my forthcoming book on postwar regionals to the Bell Brands. It's entitled, "Old MacDonald Had a Farm". Happy for you. ---Brian Powell

Thanks for all of the appreciation for the Bell Brand Snider. If I could only find the rest of the set in comparable condition. Here are a few others I acquired in the last week or so.

Another Duke.

Nice Santo. I've grown to appreciate the Topps All Star subsets; even the '68s.

And the closest I'll probably get to an Aaron RC for now.

I am not a Rose collector, but a set builder/collector. I have been slowly inching my way through (okay, more of just starting out) the 65 OPC set. In a grouping of regular Topps 65s I recently won, I came across this 65 OPC Rose. This is the kind of surprise that is appreciated.

1953 Mantle color bowman. Second card of this set I picked up this month. First the Reese. I like that this one was pretty centered. Thanks to my buddy Justin for a good deal.

The scammer with the Aaron made me mad. I buy things when I'm angry. Clemente miscut fits perfectly in my collection.
