Happy New Years fellas!

Happy to add this Mikan rookie to my collection. Vintage basketball is a relatively new hobby adventure for me, and I’m enjoying it so far.

Random recent purchases. I have to admit, I didn't even remember that the Iceman finished up with the Bulls.

Nice to see some basketball!
Got this to pair with my Mikan. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/rl0AA...DT/s-l1600.jpg |

Anybody know anything about 1948 Bowman variations? |

The workers would give these scrap sheets to local neighborhood children that stopped by the factory as they were just throwing them out. They have a good group of collectors, but many will not buy the because of the grading issue. I have never seen a PSA graded copy, so I cannot say they will grade at all. SGC and Beckett will grade the greys as authentic only. Putting together a set can be hard as there are a few I have never seen as of yet and some that are super plentiful. I imagine the sheets scrapped certainly determined the spread. Strangely one of the ones I see the most is the Mikan, but they are very difficult to sell due to price and auth grades. In most cases it seems the gray sell for a little less unless it is one that rarely comes up and people are fighting. (although people set BINs high on them all the time, I am talking auction results) I imagine that you just got this one from the large group on eBay a week or two ago. There were a few in there I went for. |
Thanks for the info. I will have to keep a look out for those. There's a link to the Mogus card auction in my post. I didn't win it.

If you collect vintage basketball, give us a hell yeah. If you're planning on attending the Net54 meetup Saturday in Virginia, bring basketball cards. :D

First new program of 2023
1 Attachment(s)
And it is a Great one.. 1947-48 BAA. Game 2 of the Championship Finals. Until last night I had never seen one. I have slso never seen a 48-49 or a 49-50 Finals program would love to see pics if anyone happens to have either one.
I completed a run of one program from each finals series from 1951- 1973 but never ran across the first 4. I have seen 3 copies of the 46-47 and when the mood strikes I kick myself for not buying the one that sat on ebay for years. But getting this one should keep my mood up for quite awhile. |

Picked this up a "card" issued by a savings bank to announce the appearance of The ABA Pacers, Billy Keller. Signed by Keller. The back shows that it was rudely removed from a scrapbook of some kind. But never seen another so I picked it up.

Ok I have been picking up a bit of vintage basketball. As I am sure you have seen my recent post in this thread.
So last week I was able to pick up this Julius Irving rookie. So Friday night had a call that a person had really nice started sets of the 1971-72, 1972-73, 1973-74 Topps sets.So figured why not. Sets were about 90% compete. So I have scanned a few of the cards.There was also a handful of the 1977 Fleer glossy team logos.No idea why I have been buying this basketball stuff since my main focus is vintage non sport. https://i.imgur.com/zwsHtIU.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FqC6MdX.jpg 1971-72 Topps https://i.imgur.com/xOQ2g4O.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bkZIY0n.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4pvAzkh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qxE8JFN.jpg https://i.imgur.com/kNsE4sS.jpg 1972-73 Topps https://i.imgur.com/BqyjuoX.jpg https://i.imgur.com/IdGx6vy.jpg https://i.imgur.com/KVdEoyO.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9SrBUA9.jpg https://i.imgur.com/cWLcUOu.jpg 1973-74 Topps https://i.imgur.com/y76Mo4u.jpg https://i.imgur.com/vIc774U.jpg Complete set Eastern Conference Pencils https://i.imgur.com/Tngofp1.jpg |
I bought a box of 2022-23 Bowman Chrome University to chase the Wemby auto. I didn't hit the auto but I did hit the super short printed base:
