Wanted this since 1983 (age 12) after seeing a picture of one in a Baseball Cards Magazine. Finally in 2009

I got it last year and I can't see parting with it.
Awesome. It's got a great story too

It's good to hear they're both still in your collection. I was worried you'd sold or traded one!

This is still my #1, until I get a Cobb:

Nice eye candy everyone!

I don't think I'm the only one here who really appreciate seeing cards like that raw.

Beautiful cards, as always, guys!

Cannot decide between these two, so I will say here's one pre-war, and one post-war...

Best Looking VG-3's for those 2 cards I believe I have ever seen. You get my Value Picks of the Year award! Holy cow, those 2 cards are nice! If we were living in pre-graded times, I would look at those as say they were Ex condition, maybe even Ex-Mt. - Congrats!

CW, both of those cards have tremendous eye appeal. I would be ecstatic to own either of them, especially Ty.

I big part of why I collect errors & oddities is their insight into the sheet layout and printing process.

Lake & Pastorius on one card.

Those 2 and a 104 others were given to me by my Father 20+ yrs ago. He says he vaguely remembers collecting them but says he collected a lot of things back then, namely stamps, coins and Bee Hive hockey cards, so they weren't a high priority to him.

We just got back from our 2nd ever T.O. card expo. Our first was over 20+ yrs ago when he gave me the cards.

It was fun, and just like old times, I looked for BB cards and him, he looked at Bee Hives.

You're welcome

Some day they will get graded, but I honestly don't know when that day will be?
