March Pickups

Picked up a couple more '54 Bowmans.

I've been wanting a well-centered 68 Ryan for a while. With how much prices have gone up, I probably should've gotten one a few years ago. (Purchased right here on the B/S/T board!)

Anyone who has collected these 63 Fleer knows how poorly centered they tend to be. This card especially...I might see 1-2 cards each year like this. I've been outbid on it about 10 times over the past few years, so I was thrilled to overpay a little for this example. When I got it in hand, I really think the grader must've been having a rough day. IMO, it wouldn't look out of place in in an 8 or 8.5 holder.

(Also, this bring me to 18 out of 24 on my Brooks set.)

Beautiful Brooksie! Agreed that a sharp, centered one is hard to find. Looks like an 8+. Congrats.
