That is MY FAVORITE Jackie card, hands down. The one card I have to represent him as well. Such a gorgeous and slept-on card in the hobby.

I would be excited for that card too.

Congrats yanksfan09 on your first Jackie Robinson. I will be adding my first J.R. at some point. What made you decide on this one?

Thanks Everyone! I just really liked the look of this card. I think it very well may be his best looking card from any year and it's still a fairly early card of him. It's just a great image, and also much more affordable than his "rookie" era 47-49 issues.

Nice pick up also BTW Matt.

Bought these raw and got them back from PSA last week....Slightly disappointed with the Ashburn and Marichal grades, thrilled with the Yogi grade..didn't think that was going to crack 3....if nothing else, I did get a gorgeous '61 Juan and '49 Richie for my rookie collection...maybe re-grade candidates someday...guess that soft lower-left corner on the Juan cost me a grade (though the scan makes it look far worse than it actually does in person). Anyway...I love the cards, and that's all that matters..thrilled to have them in my collection!

Nice looking cards Carl. Definitely looks like the one corner is dragging down your grade. He is a favorite of mine though so if it were mine it would be a 10 in my heart!
