That Ted K card has always been a favorite of mine. Dude had pipes.
Loving how the Post War side here of Net 54 has been LIVE lately! Now I gotta share this card on which I just closed the deal moments ago. I am pretty flabbergasted by this one-- as much as I was by the recent Nolan Ryan I came across above. As a centering and eye appeal guy, these two cards have me tripping! I scoured 7s, 8s, even some 9s of this card-- and I was astounded by how TOUGH it is to find one centered like this. I have seen two 7s, two 7.5s, and two 8s that can hang with this centering...but when factoring in how much more those examples cost, I leaped at the value.

You guys just kill me. Beautiful cards, everybody. I'm seriously chomping at the bit right now. I've got an itch I can't scratch right now.

My First Barn Find!
I found the card below in a stack of 1950's cards that I rescued at a garage sale this weekend for $.50 each. They were just sitting on a pile on a table. Quite excited.

Nice Pafko find!
Man you Cirulnick brothers are tearing it up. That 54 Mantle is something else. I am not sure whats going on to give it that 3, but that card looks ALOT better than that. Congrats. |

Thanks. Matt pulled me over from basketball and got me refocused on my Mantles and 80s baseball. Its much more fun on this side I must admit. The 54 is on route to me and I'll post some larger scans when it arrives. Unless there is some creasing I'm not seeing I can't see why its a 3. Gotta love when TPG helps you land a beauty for a great price.

Loving all these... i been hunting for some furniture for the house and unable to buy cards at the moment. In fact, going have to buy a new vacuum cleaner today.
Some things just have to wait...and when i do find a opportunity..You all know i pounce on it. I am so much in love with that Clemente...i will keep searching for some nice low end ones or the Mays Bowman RC, which i desire. The other day, i took time looking at Pafkos as well...doesnt matter which back (seems red get more value) One day i find a nice one to give to my brother.

Got these 3 in the mail today. The center card in the first pic is to compare the other 2 to. The top card is an awesome missing yellow 75 Topps #204 Frank Robinson/Roberto Clemente. The bottom card 75 Topps #200 Mickey Mantle/Maury Wills was printed with very low yellow ink. The other is a cool Nolan Ryan miscut.
