2020 Recap: Your Favorite Pick-Ups And Why

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

As I mentioned in another thread, I got back to my 1950s collecting roots this year and sold off some modern and prewar to help finance it. It's been a good year, and I feel pretty blessed. These are the highlights for me. The '50 Robinson isn't exactly high grade, but I love it all the same.

Robert I'm still miffed I didn't pickup a '50 Bowman Yogi back in July when I got the Reggie and that Banks card. I nearly pulled the trigger on about 3 of them. Nice cards!

Thanks, it's always been one of my favorite Yogis. And, fwiw, I feel that way about your '55 Bowman Banks. Great card!

I remember what happened now, I bought a '54 Topps Berra instead. That's probably a more sentimental card for me in terms of my childhood collecting. That would have made this list, but I didn't have a scan handy.

And PS you know I drool over that '52 Jackie. Outstanding baseball card!

That '54 Yogi isn't a slouch either! Thanks for the kind words about the '52 Jackie. It has always been one of my favorites in the hobby, and I was thrilled to be able to finally get one.

Thank you. A younger me had one years ago but sold it. I regretted it for years, and I was ecstatic to be able to pick up this one earlier this year. It is one of my very favorites.
