Default March Pick-Ups

New month, new pick-ups.

Sorry to start this thread with a fairly pedestrian card; however, it does have some personal significance.

My wife and I are building a '59 Topps set together...an awesome experience, to say the least

We picked up this high number at a show today.



Have a great month, everyone.

Best Regards,

Eric

Kind of sad that his rookie card is so underrated! he was a star in the late 60s through past the mid 70s one of a short list of left handers to win
20 or more games 4 times in ML Baseball

Default 1959 Topps

This set is a sentimental favorite of mine because it was the first Topps set I finished.

Very neat that you and your wife are building it together Eric. How far along are you ?

Also winding down my 57 set...just picked this card up, what a classic. Just like Mike Cuellar, another under rated rookie card, and a HOF no less. Loving the 57s...

Al,

So sorry that I missed your post.

Wy wife and I are at a relatively paltry 26/572 for '59 Topps; however, have picked up a few decent ones along the way so far.





We are also putting together a '55 Topps set...94/206 on that one.

Have a great weekend.

Best Regards,

Eric

Eric, nice pickups. I really like '59 Topps.

Jason, I was about to say "nice Cecil Cooper rookie".... I'm such a Brewer homer.

"Cool that Carlton Fisk also appears on Coop's rookie".

I've had 4 of these since my first game ever in '69. Just picked up this lot of 10 with scarce (I imagine) envelope. Wonder how many more there are...

I made a big purchase at the local card shop and these 3 were a part of it. The Gehrig and Adcock are available for trade. My need lists are all over the B/S/T section...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

That Nagashima is sick! I've been looking for a nice 1959 S. Oh Menko for a while. Yours is very, VERY nice.

One day....

Thanks! I had to grab that Nagashima for display next to Oh. Now I just need to keep myself from getting addicted to these Menkos because with 50+ other Oh rookies (among other HOFers) it could become an endless obsession quickly.
