You're killing me!

Welcome to the board!

Two things...

1) Beautiful Reese. The photograph on that card belongs on a wall in a large frame. One of the best ever.

2) How is the Knoxville area? My girlfriend and I are looking to move down to Tennessee from Ohio at some point. We have never been, but have our eyes on visiting the Johnson City/Knoxville area to see if it's an area we'd like to live.

I never thought of that, but you're right, that would look great in a large frame hung on a wall.

Thanks on the Reese. I've been chasing my perfect one for a long time.

I love Knoxville. Still a small town. Downtown has really come along and is a great place to work, live, and play if you don't have a passel of kids. The burbs are not too spread out and traffic is not an issue. I'm from Southern CA so my perspective on traffic is warped. Housing is reasonable. We managed to not get hit as hard as other cities in 2008. UT Football is a religion here so I hope you like the color orange (GO VOLS!). Biggest attraction are the Great Smoky Mountains so if you're into the outdoors you will love it.

I thought I had both the Color and B&W sets done but I need the B&W Reese as well....allegedly. But you do need the Color pink dot... sorry. But look at the bright side. It is better than needing both 52 Mantles , Robinsons and Thompsons

Yeah, Mike got me on that B&W Reese. It will remain in the Bigfoot/Loch Ness Monster category.

Welcome, Scott.

...yeah , the 1953 Bowman Black/White var. is pricey. Doesn't come up very often .But you really need both. This is a set-completion crowd.

Are you telling me there is a Reese in the B&W set? Never seen that. Google here I come. The Casey Stengal in that set is really cool. I have 2 Dodgers from that set. I thought Al was referring to owning the color Reese with the print dot issue in addition the one I just acquired. Setting the controls for the heart of the sun...
