Most Pleasant Surprise of 2011

Now that we are entering the second half of 2011, take a moment to look back at your collecting experiences from January to June.

What was the most unexpected item you were able to secure?

It certainly need not be the rarest or the most expensive. Just an item that you found in an auction, show, flee market or Ebay that you have been looking for for a long time. You always hoped, but never really expected, to find said item this year.

Clearly, the Baseball Card Gods were on your side.

The item we obtained was a sample of the Winthrop Moving Pictures card.
Please see link below, and good luck at the National and during the remaining months of 2011.
