WTB Absolute Beater Topps rookies
 

I've always been the extreme budget guy, and often that's led me to give a lot on condition and stay on the lookout for beaters and oddball items to advance my HOF rookie collection. There's been a few post-war Topps rookies that never seem to pop up in my "ideal" condition... So I'm reaching out to you guys now...

Basically what I'm looking for is the type of condition that makes many cringe. The type of condition that should ideally put them into my price range.. Creases, Tears, Stains, Writing, Holes, and/or Trimming preferred. The type of pickups that many would be embarrassed to post in the "pickup threads". I won't be embarrassed. Lets get these bad boys into the hands of someone who will love them for what they are, and not what they look like..

What I'm looking for at the moment is..

1967 Topps Seaver
1967 Topps Carew
1963 Topps Stargel
1955 Topps Koufax
and
1952 Topps Dick Williams

I'd list a few others like 63 rose, 52 Wilhelm, 55 Clemente, 52 Mathews, and 54 Aaron, BUT I've got a feeling that even in the worst condition, those may still be out of my current range. But if you've got one of those, it never hurts to check. Maybe there is "the absolute worst" floating around out there on net54, that could fall somehow fall into my range..

Thanks for reading, guys..

David - I can't help (much), but perhaps I can downgrade your '51 Mays for you so you can pick up some other beaters.

Let me know if you have any interest. I can come down a bit on price for this one (for you):

Don't have Mays at the moment. Saw that on your imageevent. Definitely interested. My funds would be better for that one come summertime, when work picks up... For now, I'll take my chances waiting on it...

Without a doubt, thank you for the offer though. It's exactly the type of card I'm talking about...

Wow! Those are eight sharp corners!;)
