Todays mail brought this eBay win. The card "books" for $80 NM and the seller accepted my $25 offer, and shipped it for free. 31% of "book" is more than I like to shell out, but previous eBay sales show I did OK I think.
Just SIX more cards until my '63 Fleer set is complete!

Congrats Larry, I love the 61-63 Fleer sets!

I just got this presentation watch from the last Memory Lane auction.

[revmoran]

That watch is great - pristine! Nice pick-up

THREE CARDS TO GO!

This was one of my Mt. Rushmore's . 1957 Bart Starr graded 4.5 by psa. I'm happy to own it. Christmas from me to me. Paul Hornung is the last on my list to complete this set. I'll have to update my 2017 goals.. i've only got a handful of '72s left as well. Happy hunting.

I picked up a '71 OPC Bazooka hockey counterpart earlier this year but never dreamed any Bazooka CFL cards would ever hit the market. This is one of my best ever pickups and I revel in its ugliness:

Just a few modest pick-ups for the '65 Philadelphia set I am going back to work on. These are the first football card pick-ups since Labor Day. I have some catching up to do!

[AFLfan]

This Sid Youngelman card arrived in the mail this weekend. I've been looking for one for a long time, and this completes my fully-autographed 1964 Topps set.

[jiovine22]

This one just came today. I'm pretty pumped. Just need Bronko Nagurski and Turk Edwards to finish up the 1935 National Chicle Hall of Famers. Easier said than done...but still, one less to find now!

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Great cards, everyone!

Thanks brother........i was happy with this one for sure. I just can't swing the money right now for higher grades so i was looking for a solid Brown with little to no snow on the front and a decent back. Think i did ok

So, one of my goals for 2018 was to keep my eyes open for Chargers memorabilia, particularly Type 1/team issued photos. Over the last couple of weeks, I have managed to purchase 70-something such photos from a fellow board member. These make me very, very happy. Here is a sampling. I may share more later if I have time. Thanks for looking.

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Much appreciated, Jeff. Fun stuff!

I started ANOTHER new set
Larry

[AFLfan]

Each has told me that the other was the greatest they faced at their positions, so I thought this would be kind of neat...

[jefferyepayne]

Great pickups!

Todd: love those signed '65 cards. The inscriptions from those to show so much mutual respect.

Larry: another set, huh. Good luck with Salada. Those are cool.

Jason: you can't go wrong with a well centered '65 tall boy ... particularly of a star!

That is just plain cool. I have never seen anything like that, the connection between the players is just such a next-level thing for an auto. Thanks for sharing.

[Peter_Spaeth]

I wanted a Lombardi card but unless you count that Philadelphia thing where he's pictured in a tiny insert he doesn't have one, so bought this instead.

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Good stuff, guys!

Finally added a card to my almost completed 1963 Fleer set #6 Charles Long RC (and a short print)! The Standard Catalog says the two SPs in the set (#6 and #64) were pulled to make room for the unnumbered checklist card.
Now just two cards left #23 Cookie Gilchrist RC and #47 Len Dawson RC.

[LuckyLarry]

I picked up a small stack of '48-'52 football exhibit cards, but included was this 1948 Sports Champion Exhibit Claude Buddy Young. I never even knew this set existed lol.

I've got 20 of the 59 cards in the '48-'52 set and I have these doubles if anyone has any to trade:
Dottley
Fears
McColl
Rykovich
Williams
