Only 1 slabbed by any of the grading companies. Died tragically in 1965 at age 31!

Hopefully next year, I'll show you my Carl Braun signed 1961 Fleer #7 (a signed copy has yet to be slabbed by any of the grading companies!)

Peace, Mike

Sweet stuff all around. Always Jealous of your p/us Prizner.

This is mine, received just after the New Year months ago. Ill never own a better card.

Think this is my favorite this year. Enjoy the issue, the player, the pose, the condition, big fan of B&W in general, and loved that it's the "strike" rather than the "hit" card.

With a total pop graded by PSA and SGC standing at 7.... I’m fortunate to own it. And it is without a doubt the most beautifully done postcard I’ve owned.

Someone was kind enough years ago to likely staple it into a scrapbook which causes the grade to be lower, but it’s better than tape or glue and doesn’t take away from the image, and likely helped preserve the image, corners, etc. I look at this card and can’t believe it’s about 110 years old. I only took ownership a few weeks ago and it felt like a great way to close out the year.

Congrats everyone on your favorite pickups for 2018 and I hope 2019 will be kind to us all as well!

Finally found a decent yellow Gehrig that had the combination of eye-appeal and centering I was looking for...

It was a great year. Can't decide between Steinfeldt and Cravath for top pickup of the year.

Sheesh, killer pickups this year, guys!

Loved adding this Sovereign back to my Rube PC

I was happy to add a couple of tough types to the collection - C.A. Briggs & T215:

My favourite of 2018. This pick-up completed my T205 Gibson back run:



Happy Holidays, everyone!

OMG, that's amazing! Love the ones you don't see over and over again. Congrats, a cornerstone piece!

Some great cards . . . 2018 was an amazing year. While I couldn't add a single Detroit OJ I flourished just about everywhere else. I had my best year ever with redemption coupons, cigarette packs, N333 Newsboys, and a few other odds and ends but my best pick-up of the year would certainly be these previously unknown Tomlinson cabinets of Lady Baldwin and Sam Thompson (two of my favorite players).
