Just got back from vacation. I go to the same place every August and there's a card shop nearby, run by an older guy out of his house. My boys and I always visit and my favorite thing to do is sift through his "M.A.S.H. Box." It's full of beaters, but priced accordingly, with lots of star power. It's a fun escape from graded cards, which are mostly what I collect these days. Was thrilled to pick up the '52 Bowman Large HOF RC below. As I mentioned, it's beat to hell, but that's probably the only condition in which I could afford one, and I think it still has great color. Only $10.

Nice pick up Dan! That card is on my wantlist too, and $10 is a great bargain!

Thanks Larry. It's outside my normal wheelhouse (Cappelletti and Hannah cards), but it's a HOF RC and a short print, from an iconic set. Thought it was too good to pass up. Picked up a nice '77 Too Tall Jones for a buck as well.

Great Bednarik card for a very reasonable price. I'd like to have a brick & mortar store nearby for the off-chance of a find like that.

Hey guys, turns out the Bednarik isn't his RC, not even close. A bunch of you guys (Jeff!) must know that. Why didn't anybody correct me? The sticker on the top loader said RC and I took it as fact. Turns out that between Topps Magic, Leaf and Bowman he had 5 earlier cards. I knew about the Leaf and forgot. My bad. It's still an SP, still an iconic card, and still a bargain (to me) at $10. But not an RC.

Any Bednarik is a rookie card to me! Nice pickup and congrats.

Picked up three early 80's football sets (81-82-83) to add to the run. A huge shout-out and thank you to board member Cory (AddieJoss), a pleasure doing business. Exactly as advertised. The top tier HOF's cards were a welcome surprise; many in NM-MT condition with superb centering. An overall, great transaction
