September Pick-Up Thread:

Looks like the "54" is off to another solid start of monthly acquisitions, still can`t get over the 71 Ryan. With those black borders 9`s just don`t exist. Have been looking for a presentable Mays to pair up with this Mantle and figured I`d better get going before these Mays "leave the dock" for us small fries. Came up with a kind of 1952 Bookends. Great stuff guys, keep them coming.........

One thing is for sure, not all PSA 1 "poor" cards are created equal! That Mays has incredible eye appeal. Great pickup!

Great looking cards for the grade!

Congrats on the p/u's.

That 52T Mick in 1.5 is one of my favorite cards I have seen on the boards and it looks even better with the Mays to pair it with. Some cards just look great displayed together.

This was my avatar for 4 yrs until I decided to change it just yesterday.

Wow, very strong eye appeal on both. Nice job and they look great together. It seems like all of the iconic cards are pulling away from the dock these days.

Thank you guys for all the kind words and yes Ig. agree with you, seems like all the iconic cards are "moving away". Guess it`s going to take more digging and of course plain ole luck sometimes, right place right time.

I feel the same way lately, and so was very grateful to gain access to a beautiful 1975 set that is poised to hit market. Was able to pick these colorful favorites. Especially thrilled about the #660 Aaron, which has only 41 PSA 9s and no tens.

And yesterday was a "right place, right time" moment for me when I came across this stunning signed Mantle, which is gonna serve as an early b-day present from me to me. So few are signed and even fewer of that group are really eye appealing. Have another I'm even more excited about; hope to have scans of it soon.
