It was odd seeing them surrounded by Buster Posey and Mike Trout so I rescued them. I picked up the pair for $210 which in my limited knowledge of this set seemed very reasonable.

I think you did fine - that's one of the nicest Beckley cards I've seen. Like Tenney, seems to be tough to find that one with great color and registration. Also, that blue-background Evers is kind of tough.

I have been looking for a 1933 Butter Cream Lefty Grove card with a Sept 1 back for the past 15 years. I missed out on two in the last 8 or 9 years, but was able to grab one late last week. I was so excited to cross this Grove card off my list!

Brad,

That's super cool to hear you finally got this one. Nice card. I'm very happy for you.

Here are a couple more of my pickups:

Thanks again Ken for the Reulbach and Thanks again to Scott for the Batter Up. I now have the Heving in three colors: Purple, Black and now Blue.

Thanks,

Just picked up another Carl Horner to go along with the Bob Ewing I already had. An original Yankee:
