February Pickups

Thanks. I usually only collect signed cards, but this Aaron card is just too cool. Besides the color, the big grin, etc....I also love the fact that the Johnston Cookies set is numbered based on the players uniform. This card is numbered 5, which Aaron wore for one season prior to switching to the 44 that we all know.

I actually picked up two of these. This will probably make non-autograph collectors cringe, but I plan on getting one of them signed for my HOF RC collection.

Thanks to a N54 board member I finally got a 52 Mantle. The back is a mess but the card displays well which is what I was looking for.

I also picked up a 51 Wheaties Premium on ebay.

Great pickups Dan. I like that 51 Premium. I believe I had several bids on that one but obviously lost out on it.

Dan,

Love the arrangement. That was a dynamite card from a great board member at a friends & family price. Great addition!

Best,

Matt

Everyone catching the train for a 52 mantle?? Heck CW is looking for one in the BST. Is there a flu epidemic?
There was a extremely nice PSA 2 in the LOTG auction. (sold 10,200) It was a beauty!

Nice job on the 51 Wheaties too! It took me a while, but i found a nice one a while back

I have been discussing this with my brother and cousin. The 52 Topps Mick is seeing quite the run lately. At all the lower grades, it seems ones with eye appeal are breaking into new area pricewise.

WOW, Nice Mantle. I love that Wheaties Test Photo in your arrangement. I want to add one of those to my collection as well. Congrats!
