For those following the news, Wilson may enter the MLB record books as the last player to hit .400. That seemed like a great reason to grab a playing era card of his before prices went way up.

That's a nice hedging move. Worst case, you're out a few bucks.

No, he was dead by the time Wilson did it.

By the time Wilson did it in 1948 Gibson was dead.

That '71 Ryan is outstanding. What a card!

I got this one in this week. As a lifelong Dale Murphy fan, I'm thrilled to have this card of the HOF human being (and hopefully HOF ballplayer one day).

Try finding a Remar Wilson now...I was lucky enough to grab a 1949. I bought a 2nd one too but the seller claims it went missing and canceled. Sure it did; got a bridge to sell me too?

Picked up a couple of heavy hitters (at least for my budget). Nice eye appeal and great registration on both, just some roller marks on the Mick but not too bad. Centering is always tough on these, so I can live with it.

Haha, I guess so. It wasn’t planned, and I had to give up some nice cards I really wanted to keep, but I’ve always wanted to own both of these together. I remember pulling the replica inserts from 1989 Bowman packs when I was a kid and thought they looked so cool. I had a slightly nicer 51 Mantle years ago but let it go for a guitar. So I had to get over that regret, I guess.

Please tell me the guitar was a nice vintage Strat or Les Paul or something.

Well, it ended up being a piece in the puzzle that resulted in a 50s Strat. And I do still have that, at least.
