April 2012 Pick Up Thread
 

I'll kick it off with a C55 Newsy Lalonde:

And I upgraded my Paddy Moran (Hockey HOFer) rookie card from the C60 lacrosse set:

1963/64 Parkhurst Gordie Howe
 

Just picked up this beauty for a measly $15

Hi Glenn,

That is my favorite Gordie Howe card - congrats!

Cheers,
Blair

Glenn, it's great to see another member posting in the hockey forum! The '63 Howe is a beauty card from a great set, here's mine that I picked up a couple of years ago. As far as new pick ups go, here's an upgrade to my 1989 OPC Gretzky. For a card with a HUGE print run, there are only 36 PSA 10's.

#23 of my set
 

Slowly but surely

@jb217676 - That is one sharp looking Howe card!!! I still get excited about adding a Gordie to my collection. When I was a kid, I thought he and Delvecchio would play forever.....and Gordie damn near did!!

@Spartan833 - Great pickup. I love those '51 Parkies. I only collect vintage Red Wings cards, and as yet I haven't added one from that set, but I'm always on the lookout.
