1962 card #572 - had tough time with it.
1959 card #512 - Bob Gibson rc - underrated


Hard to argue those are tough..especially a centered Shannon...I have three and only one is somewhat sort of centered...lol.

I do remember putting together my 66 set that there were times when #570 Mahaffey and #555 Perranoski literally had ZERO examples of any kind on Ebay. That is a rare feat itself. I actually got those cards off an old dealer who lurks this sight and lived near me. He emailed me with a killer deal on 10 or so EXNM 66 highs that I immediately gobbled up (Grant rookie included). I still owe this site and that gentleman for that find...about 4 years ago...


EDIT to add that I just looked at Ebay and there are indeed examples of #570 and #555 up now...just crazy at the time.
