I would love to have this card! Good job!

MattyC- that Seaver is amazing for a 5.

Picked up this Mantle in an eBay side deal. Great looking card and clean sig. I'm absolutely re-addicted to signed cards (first binge was while getting them signed as a kid... still have all those)

Also snagged this Oh as BIN, couldn't resist adding it to my small, but growing Oh collection

I continue to pick up variations, however, one tough variation from the 60s has eluded me for years, unitl now. I finally came across a sharp looking 68 Mike McCormick WL embedded(but pictured) in a lot I ended up bidding on and winning. The lot was a 200 +/- card lot that I bid (knowing this card was included) on Sunday right after the great ebay outage of Sept '14 ended, so I wonder if the outage caused other prospective bidders to miss seeing this card as part of the offered lot?

Just picked up this Mick from Ebay! Could not believe this one was available for a reasonable price. Listed as BIN or Best Offer. I had no problem clicking on the BIN. I did not want someone else to grab this why I was waiting on a Best Offer response.

If I saw that a second before you it would have been gone!

I knew you would have snatched that one up in a heartbeat! I just happened to do search of newly listed Mantles and it was one of the first to show up. I got lucky on that one.

I just bout that card in a lower grade. I would have jumped on that. Love the 59 design and the centering and color on that card are bananas.

Well done!
