That is awesome Jerry. Did you recognize him right away? He probably still looks like George Foster. So cool!

Nothing really fancy, the card only cost about $11 + shipping. But it's the first card I've bought in some time, so it feels good to have something new to look at.

Latest addition to my Topps Robin Yount PSA master set. Really nice card with exceptional centering.

I'm hoping to make it back to work by the summer. If so, then I'll be able to really start playing with my collection again. I had to choose one "hobby", and my movie collection took precedence, as I'm going to write about film. 18 months later, and nearly 900 blu-rays into my collection, I'm ready to get back to work on the '75 Topps set, the '53 Bowman and T206 set. ;)
Nice card! And OT: did you get the new Blu Ray of To Live and Die in LA? A beaut.

been looking for one in my price range for some time. Really like the image, and for a 2, the corners and centering are pretty good
Congrats! Gorgeous card!

Here are a few cool cards I got this week...

1952 Wheaties Stan Musial card with an outrageous wet sheet transfer image on the back!

1957 Washington Senators Team Issue of Whitey Herzog. The note on the back was penned, signed and sent to a fan by Herzog himself on May 28th, 1957. Love how he turned this team issue into a postcard!

1972 Minnesota Twins Team Issue of Bert Blyleven

Hi Curt!
Yes, he looks exactly the same, except for gray beard stubble. Lol

DBesse27 01-08-2017 07:43 PM
The Musial and herzog are off the charts!!

Super nice - thrilled to get this one! 1948 Satchell Paige, Picture Pack, SGC 70. Looks like the only one SGC, and zero in PSA. Not too many of these in this shape floating around.

Awesome pickup!!
But it can't be the only one in SGC, because there is one sitting in my baseball room...

I'd give the centering more than a pretty good :) well done!

I'm at 90/160 and 12/64. Been at it for two years. Trying to emphasize centering and picture quality, which is quite the challenge with this set.

irv 01-15-2017 02:10 PM
Very nice cards, Ray, and looking good so far. Bliggity! :)

jb67 01-15-2017 06:43 PM
Ray, love the Mays pickup congrats.

Bliggity, sweet looking Bowmans. Well done.

I bought a sealed set of the 1977 Red Sox team issue. These photos measure 7" x 8.5". They used the same exact photos in 1976 & 77, with the only difference being that Petrocelli was included in 76 and George Scott in 77. This set included Boomer, so the Yaz is a 77.

http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...ssue%20Yaz.jpg

Bought it for the Yaz, but it included other great players. Here are the other HOFers and my personal favorite, Dewey:

http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...77%20Dewey.jpg

The other players included in the set were Scott, Fred Lynn, Rick Burleson & Denny Doyle.

DBesse27 01-17-2017 09:14 PM
51 bowman Williams = one of my favorite sets, one of my favorite players, and a terrific pose. Congrats on picking up a hell of a card!

Erick I just bought one myself and it was trimmed 👎🏻. So I returned 👍🏼. So I'm still in the hunt for a low grade centered example.

Todd what is the Murray card I've never seen it before ps cool pick ups .

Murray
 
Thank you, Dustin. Curt is correct - it's the 1978 Hostess.

Been looking for one for quite some time. Would've preferred a PSA 7, but this raw card was pretty decent. Not exactly evenly cut, but at the price I paid for it, at least I now have one!

...great cards everyone!

Modest pickup, but continuing to add to my '65 Topps Cubs team set...

This Hammerin' Hank isn't that badly off-center and I got it at a beautiful price, so I'll take it until I can trade it for a nice ungraded version…

I love when I find a piece I didn't know about. I didn't realize the OPC version of Agee's Topps poster listed him with Mets, unlike the Topps which had him on the White Sox, just picked this up.

Gehrig P/U is new but the 52's were acquired back in December. (Beckett slabs with inner bags, hence the blur. Think I may try to crack these? Thoughts?)

Thanks, Frank! :)
