I was slot #173, and got card #172.

I had family obligations that kept me from veiwing the live drawing but just saw I drew Monte Irvin and a common. Probably a little behind value wise but the entertainment value was great. Thank you Leon and Nick for your time and trouble. Definitely willing to try again.

#59 Gene Conley to anyone who wants it. Free of charge. I can send it out after I get a chance to peek at it in-person :)

Since I somehow got card #1 (some dude who played for the hated "Saux"), I immediately went out and bought a powerball ticket. Let's see if I can go 2 for 2 this week!!!!!

Oh, both cards I won are available for trade if anyone is interested. My need lists are all over the B/S/T, but I'm also pretty open to other things.

Thanks Nick and Leon!! Can't wait for the next one!!

The Conley is claimed :-)

Tough crowd! :p

Darren, if you hit the power ball, can I buy the Ted Williams from ya at cost? I hope to a.) acquire my first Teddy Ballgame, and b.) catch some of your good luck. :D

Seriously though, congrats on getting a great card. And good luck with the power ball ;)

I think this speaks for most of us:

Thanks again Leon and Nick, that was fun!

del

Paul S. I assume you do not have any daughters. There are other types of boards for that sort of talk.

Leon, thanks for running this and I say that not only because I won the Kaline :-)

Bob Donaldson

Thanks to Leon and Nick. It was fun to watch.

I ended up with:

#29 Jim Hegan - Cleveland Indians
#64 Hank Thompson - NY Giants

both available for trade for any NY Yankee

Thanks
Mike

Bob, I apologize to you and anyone else who is offended by my post. I'll go back and delete it.

Thank you Paul, you responded in a classy way

take care

Bob

I want to also add my thanks to Leon and Nick. That was the most fun that I have had with cards in a long time. I will definitely be looking to do it again.

I got Yogi and card #149 Jim Robertson. If anyone cares about the A's and wants the Robertson card I will take any other card for it if it'll help you out.

I picked up #185 Stobbs which I'm really stoked about, and also #94 Banks RC:eek: Thank you Nick and Leon! Will be looking forward to the next one.

If anyone wants to unload their unwanted cards send me a pm. Trying to piece together my meager set.

Thanks for setting this up Nick & Leon, already looking forward to contributing to a members windfall/rookie card draw next time!

I drew #125 Perkowski and 218 F. Marsh. If anyone is interested in these let me know a '54 set is not in my future.

Thanks Nick and Leon for this, never done it before and it was really fun! I think I want to hold on to #220 Ruben Gomez (though I'd be open to an offer), but am most definitely willing to part with #34 Jim Rivera (white sox) if someone is looking to complete a team or something like that. Please just pm me, hopefully we can work it out

Nick not sure if this is right way but please send my #22 Jim Greengrass to granite75 with his cards.

Also sent PM

Got it down.

Thanks,
-Nick

Also send my cards to granite75 Mueller and miranda . PM also sent

Send my two Dicks to granite75 as well. Thanks

Nick, please send my two cards to granite75 as well. Thanks!

Send mine to granite as well please.
Dude is racking up!

Please send my two cards to granite75 too - thanks!

54 Topps set break...
 

Anyone looking to unload their (commons) cards...I need low numbers (1-125) to help finish the set my dad started as a kid. I know Granite is cleaning up but...if I can get in on the action...PM me!

thanks

Appreciate the opportunity to purchase/trade for the commons so far. Roofman, I'll keep an eye out for commons for you as well now that I know you're looking. Any particular grade?

I will post all the confirmed trades tomorrow at 9:00PM to make sure they are ok with everyone involved.

Hopefully I will be able to post the organized list sometime tonight. I've just been really busy. Packaging and shipping will happen on Thursday and hopefully everything will be sent out by Friday afternoon. If not they will have to go Monday because Saturday I will be extremely busy.

-Nick

You can send me cards to granite as well. roofman, both my cards are in the 200s. Good luck to both of you with your sets!

Nick and Leon, thanks for the break. It's was fun!

Please send my cards to granite75 as well.

#100 and #157.

I'll send a PM too.

Thanks,
Joe

I'll trade my two coaching cards: The Bobs: Swift & Keely for ANY one NY Giants player... any takers? (Do I sound desperate? I do? I am? oh.)

Otherwise, ship those bad boys over to me and I'll try to pick up the finer points of coaching....

Thanks to Nick and Leon for running this.

It gives me another reason to check the board.

When is the next one? I am getting impatient.

I am on the lookout for the next group. Not much more I can say. Hopefully it will be soon but I would expect 3-4 weeks, at least.

Can't wait, this was surprisingly fun. I'm sure there is a gambler in all collectors. I didn't hit any key cards but I'm pleased with picking up a Vic Powers RC. Thanks for putting this together and looking forward to the next one.

Leon,

May I suggest a 1956 Topps set break. Roughly 10% of the cards are HOFers and the price point is (relatively) reasonable.

Although the rookie crop is somewhat thin, the combination of players from Topps and Bowman contracts led to one amazing set.

Just my two cents.

Best regards,

Eric

Perfect set

Here is a story I did on the break
 

Just throwing this out there
 

Just throwing this out there. I have a 1956 Topps set I would be willing to sell as part of a Set Break...

+1. The Mantle card in that set is mighty nice.

Oh Man, does that mean I have to get all contrite and stuff again?

send cards to Roofman4
 

Nick,

Great fun!
