Hey, those are some great pickups! I love the Post cereal cards, I’m hoping to pickup the blue line this year! But really nice 59, Congrats! Great to see another Clemente guy in the thread!

I'm a football guy but did pick up one item I think you all will enjoy. There's a well known football player batting cleanup for Toledo.

The Manush on the roster is credited by BB-R to a Harry Manush, but with a ? after his name on their website.

Per Harry Manush's minor league stats (these are so often incomplete/incorrect going back this far), his first pro team was AA Toledo that season. This might seem a bit suspicious, starting off as a pretty regular player with a AA team, when he seemed to never reach anything beyond A ball afterwards, going from AA to A to B to D!

That's great. Not a bad baseball player, either. Then there's the Olympics...

Fantastic pick ups and stories everyone, very enjoyable reading in this thread!

This year's National was so relaxing and enjoyable to me and was able to spend it with my son, Tyrus; and my dear friend Jeff! It was so nice to see so many great dealers that I have done business with or talk to every year. I try my best to buy something off the folks that I know each year, but with my focus narrowed down to just about 3 sets, I had to keep my $ focused and was unable to purchase from some I usually do.... but a shout out to those that I was able to purchase from who worked with me on pricing and I was extremely pleased with the pricing and purchases that I had. Thanks again to all of you!!!

These great T206 Pick ups, including the DEMMITT St. Louis, gets us down to 23 left in our T206 Set that Jeff and I are building as friends! The 19 T205s, including 3 Hall of Famers gets us to about a 1/3 of the T205 set that my son and I are building together.

Thanks!!!! I really enjoyed The National this year!!! Had my son with me, a great friend, got to talk with dealers that I've respected and known for a long time, and met some new ones, everyone is in good health it seems which is the most important part!!!!
The only thing that I can complain about is the line to get pizza!!!
Anyways, I knew that Saturday that traffic, lines, prices, etc. would be tough, but I love my 1 day that I get at the National every year and I believe it is what you make of it.... Positive or Negative, and I choose to be realistic, but positive.
Take care all!
