Have any of those BF2s left?

I did a search on the board, under "annis" and it looks like it was about 3 1/2 yrs ago that the poster was shown. It was shown by some guy named "Archive". That Archive guy must be the smartest baseball card collector in the history of the Universe, not just Earth, but the whole Universe. He seems to know everything!!!

As for the BF2's.....the rest will be in our next B and L Auction.....not sure how they will be split up yet but I am leaning to having groups of them. regards

The connection with the poster is also noted in the SCD Standard Catalog now as well.

Leon, you outbid me on that card! I can really only afford low grade vintage since I'm still a student with a low budget regardless that card is awfully beautiful.

leftygrove10, I only collect Greenberg cards at the moment. I would need the Diamond Stars but I don't expect you to break up the set to sell it to me.

Thanks for the warm welcome fellas.

You haven't said yet, but why do you collect Hank Greenberg cards?

He's probably a Yid like the rest of us Greenberg collectors.

That's part of it. I used to be a first basemen when I played baseball back when I was younger. Before I started solely collecting him I wanted a bat card of his just because it was affordable and looked nice. I decided then I wanted to collect him.

Since this has turned into a show-em thread and I also used to be student with a low budget (luckily, I was fortunate enough to graduate, and today I'm just low budget).

Lovely Day...
