Wrote an article on Sandy Koufax baseball cards, then was able to win #3 the list at auction!

Got 6 for my 53 set upgrade mission

If anyone has any in this sort of condition VG/EX well centered, I can send a list :)

Nice start guys!

New January additions to my 1977 OPC Baseball set.

Stoked with today’s show pick up of this long time want. Buy the card, not the grade!

Hard to find that card so nicely centered, congrats.

Thanks. Yes, centered - and the lack of print crap and snow.

I always seem to be able to find these without snow and a nice color and image, but never centered this well. Couldn't get my wallet out fast enough on this one.

Also a show pickup yesterday. Very happy with this guy.

Just got this in and I like it, a great add to my collection

New pick up, excited to have this one.

This may seem to be an insignificant pick up but I find these 2 cards really interesting. First, the O'Brien twins. If you're going to have 1954 Topps, without necessarily building a full set, this is a must have card. And, Johnny O'Brien is still with us. I love stuff like that. Second, I have become a big fan of "Professor" Curt Roberts. If you haven't read GeoPoto's great thread about Curt Roberts, the first black man to play for the Pirates, I encourage everyone to do so.

Beat up but decent centering and color

Nice. Nothing wrong with that. I seem to have a knack for finding lower grade (like G and below) cards perfectly centered.

Self Graded. Fortuitous considering the current grading environment.
Welcome addition to my set.
