I have been picking up graded versions of many star rookies in many sports just as you have been doing. I think we are starting to see the rise of this focus lately, prices sure reflect such! |

Still amazed with Bob's collection. Having the resources to pick up hundreds of dollars in cards almost every day is incredible to me.

What a fantastic collection. To continue Phil's comment, Bill, do you happen to have any extra seeds of that moneytree?

Very Impressive story. I'm sure most of us assumed you had done well at something with all of those great pick ups lately. It's hard to imagine starting and building a company at such a young age.
Nice cards too. I especially like the Thomas NNOF. I remember hearing about it in 1990 but I was just buying a pack or two here and there at the grocery store and never saw one until years later. Still don't own one yet, but hope to soon.

great stuff...just ventured over here to the pre-1980 side...I hadn't been over here for several months. This is the first I'm seeing your collection! Very awesome! I remember you mentioning that you needed something new and challenging after completing all the Topps runs. I'd say that your new focus is quite challenging, although you've made far too much progress too quickly!!
Anyway, best of luck with your collection! I'll keep a close eye on your progress. Here are a few of mine (I like the really esoteric stuff): 1967 Reds Team Issue PC: ![]() 1969 JD McCarthy PC (error): ![]() 1956 Pirates Team Issue PC: ![]() 1948-49 El Indio: ![]() 1963 Reds Team Issue PC: ![]()

No, I'm mostly trying to collect the earliest card/photo of each MLB HOFer recognizing that quite a few are simply going to be too cost prohibitive and/or nearly impossible to find (Ruth, Cy Young, etc.). I guess you can call me a HOF "Rookie card" collector, but I really love the oddball stuff! I'd take a '67 Reds Team Issue PC of Johnny Bench any day over his '68 Topps.
Best of luck on your journey! Enjoy the hunt! Instead of grabbing whatever you can find to build up your collection quickly, try seeking out a specific card with that player's autograph. It'll be fun to try to nail down a needle in a haystack. Although, I must admit, everything you've picked up so far looks to have GREAT centering and registration, so make sure not to compromise. There are some cards in my collection that I simply can't stand to look at because of their condition flaws (despite being very rare). I just "needed" the card to fill a hole in my collection (on paper).

Has a 1964 Topps card I don't know if that matters or not. I know the 1965 says rookie but so does the 1964.

Great stuff Bob. Are you going for a RC of everyone or just HOFer's? I had an idea to just do the cup'o coffee guys on their first(only) card.

Great auto Berra card, Bob. I would consider that to be his true rookie card even though the price guides indicate 1948 Bowman. The 1947 Tip Top Bread was a legitimate, widely collected set, not as mainstream as 1948 Bowman but still..........
