For example, this weekend I picked up a 1957 Marchetti in Vg-ex for $1.36. I got a 1963 Marchetti for 99 cents. I snagged a 1966 Keith Lincoln in Vg-Ex/Ex for 6 cents plus 25 cents shipping. I can remember hearing how football cards were underpriced in the 1980's. Well, as I am closing in on completing my sets for the 50's and 60's, I want the good times to keep rolling.

I hear you, Sam! It amazes me how reasonably priced most 50s and 60s football is compared to baseball. High grade HOF RC are the exception due to the "registry people". I believe football is still significantly undervalued and has a lot of upside.

I love the 1950 Bowman's, whether it's football or baseball, the pictures are perfect. I would eventually like to pickup more, but for now these will do.

Nice cards Jason, I agree on the '50 Bowman's. It's my football set. Here's a couple of recent additions with a 50 Bowman Tittle and an Exhibit Baugh.

Four more for the set - now at 58/100 (not counting the Tinsley or White errors) with Luckman incoming.

Nice AA cards! I have the Hein and the Hutson and when I bought the Hutson, it was labeled as a "short print". Anyone know the story behind that? Something with the sheet layout?
