February Pickups
Some 1955 Bazooka premium inserts. I believe this is the the first year the felt emblems were available. The pennants were probably the ones advertised on the 1952 packs but the team emblem premiums from '52 were plastic. These are the same size, too lazy to correlate them!

My first pick ups of the new month...
The 4 Horseman was listed in Ex condition, but it is creased. So I might end up sending it back as I don't deal with any kind of creases. I usually toss anything that's creased in the trash, but this has a BV of $500. So don't really wanna just toss it. So will most likely end up sending it back. Anyway, here's the goods from today's mail day, which also included about 16 different 1959 Topps all-star cards. |

Hit up a show, and snagged a couple nice Killebrews, a Reggie I've been after, and I finally have the Ozzie rookie. Love those sideburns.
And this is the back of the Reggie. One of my favorites, love the broken record. |

Jim, I had a similar '68 Ryan OPC. That card in any condition is not easy to find. Congrats

Awesome Seaver Poster. The fact that eBay's alerts constantly miss stuff likely saved you some money as I would have been in on this had I actually gotten an alert for it.

Daily news are tough.
What do you know about the red print? I've got Lou Brock, but only in black and white. |

David the only red printed versions from what I understand were the Bench and Perez during the All-Star game period in 1970. Standard catalogue of baseball cards has the set listed in it.

As a kid listening to Scully call the Dodgers on KABC in 1979, you would have thought Manny Mota was a cross between Ty Cobb and Father Time. Listening to his record-breaking pinch-hit was one of the biggest highlights of my early fandom.
I was crashing at a friend's place who mentioned he still had an old shoebox of cards from back in the day. I came across the Mota, and he was happy to give it to me. Next to it is a French trade card from around 1910. Some of you know I also collect Isaac Newton. This isn't Newton but I stumbled across it in a Newton search and just found it too stunning to pass up. So many cards back then were works of art. A couple pickups I saw posted here reminded me that 1953 Topps had a similar artistic quality. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-J327A using Tapatalk

Glad to read you are real close to finishing off your set. I can only dream. I have slowed down considerably since last November when I purchased a new car for my wife. With Christmas, plus a new side door and other renos, and other everyday expenses, my disposable income has pretty much been disposed of! I still watch/look for bargains occasionally but those are few and far between nowadays. Hopefully, once things are finished up around here, I can start banking some money again and be able to continue on, but I don't think, at this point, that it will be anything like it was last year. Good luck finishing your set. I will be watching/looking for your new additions.

I added three and upgraded one card for my 64 Stand up set. The Mays is tough to find in high grade and is the second most expensive card in the set. I also added two to my 56 Topps HOF set.

A few more late 1959s-early 1960s to add to my ever-growing collection. These came via a trade on here.
