Leon, love your bazooka items. Such crazy defects.


Nelson, the picture below is right a little more than half the collection. I started running out of space and did not think I could fit much more in the picture, so I did not disturb a couple stacks of cards. (Note: the carpet is brand new and not stained, not sure why it looks off color in the picture like that).

i just received my 68 last week in sgc40

Before I ever starting to collect anything post war I had a list of five that "I'm never going to get these cards".

They were a 1968 Nolan Ryan rookie, 1953 Bowman Pee Wee Reese, 1953 Topps Satchell Paige, 1952 Bowman Willie Mays and 1949 Leaf Stan Musial.

Thanks to my wife as a birthday gift I was finally able to find the last of these five that I needed in a range I could afford and not look like it went through a washer machine.

So excited about this one as I have become quite a Musial fan over the last few years.

Great Musial, Congratulations

Amazing BestDj777 (Chris)
You never showed them to me before.
It makes me wanna take a group picture of ALL my Mantles as well.
Then again, i try using PhotoBucket and listed most of them in the B/S/T thread.
Bestdj777- that is an amazing pile...so envious on some of those. Maybe sometime down the road..i be getting my other 52 A RC variation.
I really like to have all mine by 1 TPG grader..probably all by SGC. Right now mine is all mis-match by BVG/PSA/SGC.

I just picked this one up from a Net54 member. Kind of a neat story goes with it, after we settled on price, he requested I donate the cash to an organization like the salvation army since we are in the season of giving. A nice gesture on his part for sure. Todd, the Salvation Army kettle got a little heavier yesterday. Thank you!

Wow, not even half way through the month and this thread is ON FIRE! Great cards, guys!

Chris, the Mantle collection is off the charts!

Drew -- congrats on getting the 5th and final card.

[pawpawdiv9]

Ok...its not another Mantle. But a ALL-TIME great of mine, that i always wanted when i was growing up in Atlanta and watching the Braves.
He is a notch off my want list of RC's and a scratch off my 2014 colleting focus.
