The 53T was the only card I've been able to pick up before prices started rising. It's a good-looking card, but I'm starting to see it everywhere. I guess when prices go up, that happens.
I was lucky enough to just pick up an original Paige photo. It probably won't appreciate like the cards, but I do like the idea of looking at it on my shelf.... Last edited by Frankish; 04-12-2021 at 05:20 PM. |

He appeared in 46 games in 1952, and it's unfortunate that there wasn't a Topps or Bowman card from that year. I used that very same original Paige photo for my 1952 Bowman Art card of him. It just feels like one of those classic "1952 Bowman" poses, and possibly an image Bowman may have used if they planned on adding him to the set.

That's amazing. I would love for this card to exist.

Bob Lemke made a custom 52 Topps of Paige and sent me one years ago with a Flexichrome I bought from him. I need to dig that one out...

Bob Lemke was a fantastic designer of "cards that never were." Here's his '51 Bowman Paige.
