September Pick-Ups

After finishing the T201 set, it's time to stay in the theme and go with the 1955 Doubleheaders. So far, I have an unopened pack (GAI 6) with Fred Marsh/Thies card inside, the Marsh Thies card (ungraded), Bilko/Milliken (UG), Spahn/Brewer (UG), Aaron/Herbert (SGC 70) and these two that I picked up this month!

This is a great set, both because of the unique double cards and because when you get the whole set the backs form great panoramic pictures. The packs became fairly plentiful recently and there are no surprises about what you have.

I recently found out one of the players in the 1955 DH set, Gair Allie ( pictured with Grady Hatton) still owns a Sports bar here in San Antonio

Hi Al - i really look forward to acquiring the whole set to check out the stadium shot. I just may have to break a few out of the PSA/GC holders to do it. I'm trying to collect most of them raw, but a nice mid-grade graded example of a HOF card, for a great price, is hard to pass up.

That's pretty cool that Allie is still around. Not too many of these guys are still here.

Neat item Leon

Not the greatest item. Seems kinda pointless to have had it slabbed. But I'm glad it was, because the price was pretty nice thanks to that 3..
