Newby!!!
 

Good day all. I'm the local newby. My name is Scott and I'm a cardaholic.... I just started dabbling with T206, I'm up to 74 cards. I also have a small Warren Spahn empire. I know a few of you and I'm looking forward to meeting more of y'all. Happy collecting! Scott

Welcome to the asylum, Scott. It's great to see another Spahn fan on the board.

Spahn was such a great player, and a really nice guy. I love how the majority of his cards show him smiling.

Welcome aboard! Trent King

Welcome aboard and some nice cards indeed

Welcome to the group. Great Spahn collection. My favorite is the 1973 Topps. At one point I was building an autographed 1973 Topps set. But it took a less important spot in my collection as I focused on T206's. If you ever have any questions, feel free to reach out to me, and I'll do my best to help out where I can.

Welcome. Nice collection of Spahn signatures!

In my book, Spahn doesn't get the recognition deserved with his career credentials.

Jump in, the water is fine!!!

FYI: Are you looking to get your other autographed Spahn cards authenticated? There's a very trustworthy guy on BO who does a huge bulk order (at cheaper prices) every January, so it's going on right now. A fellow member here turned me onto it a while back, and it was great.

Welcome Scott, love the Spahn collection.

Welcome, Scott!

Welcome newby

Welcome, O Captain of Spahn!

I appreciate the heads up. The 51 and 59 are already on their way to PSA.

Scott, welcome!

Warren Spahn. years ago I thought of him as a good, worthy Hall of Famer. I saw him pitch, only once, for the Giants, in St. Louis, in the mid-1960s. It was a game when play was stopped to allow Mike Shannon time to put on catcher's equipment, then make a few practice throws to second, the Cardinals were short a catcher due to injury, and then the catcher starting the game got injured.

Anyway, as time has gone by I have come to think that he's the best southpaw pitcher I've seen. Not Carlton, nor Randy Johnson, nor Glavine, nor Mr. Koufax.

Warren Spahn may not be my choice for a Lefty to win one game; nor even be the left-hander with the best season. But what he did have is the best career, I think. He was a winner, a leader among his team-mates where the clubhouses are packed with players who were stars in high school, college, and even in the minors (but the majors is a taller pinnacle). And, Warren Spahn was a quiet war hero, in the old sense of the word ('hero' has become a word attributed to way too many, I think, it's like youth soccer, everyone plays, everyone gets a trophy...). I applaud your collection of his cards.

I look forward to your posts.

One of the most underrated pitchers in baseball history.
