I am having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that I own these two cards.
I recently had my first go-round with flipping a collection. 12 near sets sold over the course of 2 months. They were priced well for resale and I found a buyer with whom I was able to establish a really solid connection. I used the profits to nearly complete my 1951 Bowman set (still need Ford and Dickey). I LOVE the Mays. PSA3 looks real solid to me for condition. It's a little O/C, but this cards almost always is. A nice clean back without stains is a major bonus for me as I feel like 51 Bowman has those issues all the time! And as a Yanks fan, it doesn't get any better than Mickey. The MC doesn't really bother me, it's pretty much the same as Mays. I'm just glad he's unobscured and there are no creases or wrinkles going through the major parts of the card. Some may see this as an investment piece, but I don't ever see these cards changing hands (unless I get a chance at a major upgrade!)

Close. It's the same image from his '63 Topps, not '66.

John, that's a great batting leaders card! I love vintage LL cards with 3+ HOFers.

Recent pickups, with the Seaver RC from a fellow board member -- put together a good old fashioned multi-card trade + cash deal. Thanks Brian!

This eBay purchase arrived today, the last of the three short prints I need for my set. Mantle and Snider remain.
FYI the trademark "HYLO-IZED" (used by the DanDee Pretzel and Potato-Chip Company) expired in 1992. Larry ![]() ![]()

I am currently looking for a higher graded/slabbed 52 Topps Of Cooper. My son has the exact same first 2 names, and like him, he also goes by Walker.

Still a really nice looking Kaline. It only hurts when you pay. After that the memory of the transaction fades and you are left with one spectacular addition to the collection!
Congrats. RayB

Thanks, Ray!
I am the same with the Ashburn. I remember seeing my Uncle's copy some years ago and it always stuck with me. ![]()

Nice cards fellas! Great Berra!
Irv, the Ashburn is one of my faves as well with that emerald green back. Nice Spahnnie too!

I really like the 52 Ashburn also Irv...more ironic is the fact that each month we both seem to add some of the same copies of cards to our 52 sets, as I recently picked my Richie A card also.
