Great thread. I started getting back into cards around spring 2014. Bought a nice '54 Bowman Mantle that summer, which was by far the most I'd ever spent on a card. I had a little familiarity with vintage, but knew almost nothing about prewar. It seemed like a steep learning curve. Then I went to the Raleigh show in December 2014 and saw this T205 Mathewson in a dealer's case. It was love at first sight. I slept on it that night, and went back and bought it the next day for $325. It was in a SGC 30/2 holder at the time, and I cracked it and sent it to PSA where it (rightly) upgraded. Still have it front and center in my display case.
