Got this in the mail yesterday. No wrinkles or creases and a pretty nice image.
Other than the Mays, I suddenly have all the money cards in this set (not planned). I guess finishing this set along with '65 will officially be my immediate goals. Thanks for always sharing all of the stuff I see on this board! |

Forgive me. The card is not from the era but the autograph is.

Got this one in the mailbox today. The little mark by his right ear is a scratch on the case.

Robert, that is a sweet looking Kaline rookie. Congrats.
|
Thank you!

Been wanting to add a Paige card to the mix. I just cannot figure out why it's a 3. No creases or wrinkles anywhere. And those are print spots on his bill, not paper loss, so it just doesn't compute.

suhweet Paige!!!
classic card! |
Solid looking Satch for PSA 3. Nice pickup. That certainly would look right at home in a PSA 4 or 5.
|
Agreed. Great Paige!
|
Thanks guys. I still can't find any wrinkles. A 4-5 shouldn't be out of the question. Regardless, I'm pleased with it in any grade.

Been wanting this one for a while. Not perfect, but good centering - scan is a bit blurry.

Today, in the south part of Jacksonville, a "card show" inside a "card shop"? I attended this event a couple of months ago, and it was OK. But today I was holding a $25 gift card to "Cheesecake Factory", so I made the drive!
The owner of the card shop had recently purchased a collection of mostly EX-MT 1960s Topps cards, (some gorgeous cards) with a few off grade cards mixed in. So I thumbed through the cards and picked out the lower grade stuff, but also picked out an interesting advertising card T.C.G. from 1959 which I had never seen before. In addition to this advertising card I picked out these baseball cards, 2 1952 Topps, 1 1953 Topps, 2 1954 Bowman, 6 1954 Topps, 2 1955 Bowman (Zimmer), 1957 Topps NY Giants team card, and two 1959 Topps team cards. But what I really wanted was that advertising card. Dealer asked for $30 and I countered with $25, which he took which included the advertising card pictured below. There is one similar listed right now on eBay "1959 Bazooka Bloney Pennant" add insert card listed at $69.99 OBO. Interesting that the eBay card notes the "typical slit on the side" and the card I bought today also has this slit but on the opposite side of the card. Does anyone have any additional info on this card? It's slightly smaller than a regular 1959 Topps baseball card and it's paper thin. Thanks in advance.

Down to 61 cards needed for the 61 Topps set...the end is near...
http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/iWEAAO...9C/s-l1600.jpg Tough card, got it for a great price (surprised I won, for you set collectors looking for hi numbers, I got this for 13.50). A little rough for my set but I'll take it. Cerv pops up in a lot of the Mantle books I have read, classic card.. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/bGUAAO...bi/s-l1600.jpg |
Another lucky ebay victory, $10.88?? I was shocked to wake up in the morning to see I won. Love picking up the lucky gem everyonce in a while, the little victory's of a set collector keep us going...haha..

Have always wanted this card for a long time being a Giants fan but never seemed to pull the trigger. Tough to find a nice centered example with nice registration and no print lines. Very excited to add this to my collection...

Great looking card Jerry

Awesome Mays!

I was lucky enough to get one from a local card shop (in my net 54 sig) along with some other cards. I was lucky the dealer only deals in hockey or I might have paid a lot more for the lot. Got these the other night from another E-Bay auction. They are raw and somewhat rough, but they were affordable and I needed/wanted them. :) |

Most corners are dinged, and with my exceptional scanning skills, I have managed to cut a few of them out so the pics actually make them look better than they are. :D Thanks. :) |

Nice P/U's!

Nice looking Mays, Jerry, and John, that mantle is a steal!

Thanks for the comments guys. I can't stop staring at it. Easily one of my favorite cards I've owned.
|
That is the most beautiful 3.5 I have ever seen! Congrats on the pickup!
Also digging that 59 Kaline Baseball Thrills. I am not a huge fan of subsets, but I always loved this one. In the early 80s, the Musial one was in a local shop and I was in love with it. Paid $7.50 after saving up allowances for awhile. I probably got ripped off given it has a pinhole in it, but man I love that card. Edit: I just looked and you can get the Musial's pretty cheap on Ebay for a beater. Don't care; wouldnt change the childhood experience of owning that beautiful card for the world! "Oh, you have a 1989 Upper Deck Jerome Walton!?! That's cool. Have I showed you my '59 Musial?" I may need to go and buy the Kaline now..... |
56 Mantle

Thanks Cooptown!
It's been a good week. Just got this in today. Have always loved the 56 Topps Mantle with the duel head and action shot. |
Nothing fancy, just filling in some more gaps in my 1969 set, but that 1971 card is the last card I need to finish the 1971 set. 1971-1980 are complete, but 71 is the roughest set I have and will be the first to get upgraded once I finish 1969 and 1970 off.
