Thanks Big 6 and CW, a man cannot pick his parents but I have long known that if I can be half the man that my father is I will be a success as both a husband and a father.

Mike,

That's awesome that your father did that. Very cool of him and what a sweet card he chose too.

---------------------------------------------------------

This is another pickup for me this month. I just love the image and colors on this 1954 Bowman Jim Gilliam. I just started this set and this is one of my first to pick up from it.

Thanks,

AndyH

Nice card...did Jim Gilliam ever have an unattractive card?

Mike, thanks for sharing the story about your relationship with your dad. It put me in a great mood. The card is a beauty, Merry Christmas

Default 1953 Bowman #44
Got a great deal on this puppy. Only need one more for the set! #133 if anyone has one. My whole set is in a binder, should I break this bad boy out? Never done it before, any advice on how to proceed? I'm pretty happy with the card, no real nasty creases, just a tiny paper loss, too bad it's on the front, but for $45 you can't beat that deal!

I just might put together a low grade (real low) Nabisco set. And I couldn't resist the ironic miscut Brock

Default Freeing Up cards
Robs--All my sets are in binders in their natural state. I have freed up a lot of cards using a bolt cutter. Works quick with two snips at the top. Have never damaged a card

Break it out. It would bug me to death having that in a slab by itself, especially in that technical grade.

Congrats on completing a gem of a set!

The '54 Dan Dee Mickey Mantle was my "Holy Grail" at the beginning of this year. A nice, clean, centered mid-grade copy had eluded me for years. Then, in late Feb. of this year, a beautiful PSA 5 was offered up on eBay by PWCC. I won that auction and the white whale was harpooned! But..... a week ago this puppy showed up on eBay and the insane collector in me couldn't resist. This is not as nice as the one from Feb., but this one was also cheaper. Thanks for not judging, as I'm sure some of you here understand this sickness.
