Default what r u looking for at the national

Posted By: Josh

Larry... you're going to move into the Venezuelan's now... great...

I've pretty much given up collecting nearly everything else to focus solely on Venezuelan's...

Good thing I've had a 6 year head start on them... but I still need several cards from a few years to complete a full run of sets.

I can recommend two dealers who I have had a lot of success buying Venezuelan cards from in the past... Dave Levin (who has the largest inventory of any dealer I've ever seen) and BJ McAvoy. They will both be at the National and will definitely have the bulk of, if not just about all, the Venezuelan cards that will be present in Chicago.

1964 is by far the easiest set to assemble unless you're overly concerned about back damage and creasing, and if you are overly concerned about back damage and creasing, you are going to be extremely frustrated trying to collect Venezuelans because the ones with a clean front and back that don't have some sort of creasing are few and far between.

If you're looking to get started with a real beauty, I do have a gorgeous 1966 Venezuelan Yankees Team card (PSA 6) on eBay now.



Good luck.
