[QUOTE=jefferyepayne;1273084]All Jim Brown cards are spectacular regardless of the grade! I miss the "old days" when collecting was about having an example of the card instead of having it at a specific grade with a low pop

Thanks all. I had the card about 30 years ago but it was long gone [probably sold] until I purchased a shoebox collection of a few thousand cards and Topps posters from the original collector who'd amassed it as a kid. He found it in his parents' attic and was really happy to get some cash for what he thought of as junk. The card shown here was one of the pulls from that lot that I decided to keep rather than resell. The cards were pretty rough so I didn't spend a lot of time going through them and conducting an inventory, I just made a cash offer that was accepted. Great thing was I didn't even know it was in there when I bought the whole collection, so I was pretty pleased when I got the box home and had the time to go through it in detail. There was also a 1959 but that one I already had so I offered it for sale. The other fun with the lot was that there were a few totally pristine, never even unfolded, posters, including this one:

Stain
Just noticed a 1958 Topps Jim Brown numerically graded and holdered in a PSA holder with the qualifier of "ST" and all I can find is that the trivia part on the back has been lightly rubbed, revealing the cartoon answer to the trivia question. Has anyone else seen this card receive a "ST" qualifier for this?

Jeff I am glad you said that, I am happy for those collectors that really are grade oriented but I love just filling holes!
I do upgrade but only if a card pops up. I would say my cards are VG plus but that is just the grade that appeals to me. As we always say when playing golf, just enjoy, work is tough this stuff is fun!

1959 Bazooka...nice! Definitely one I'd like to add to my collection some day.
A few more of mine: This 1962 Post is actually nicer than the scan. I don't know why it showed up so oddly:  1963 Stancraft:  1960s Sport Pix:  Some team issues:

Thanks for posting photos of Jimmy's Browns' team issue photos! I hadn't realized that the first two were the same images that were used on the '60 and '61 Kahn's.

It's criminal but you can get the '59-63 JB's for under $100 tops.
