Very nice, David.

In my experience, trying to find a nice centered Erskine like yours was rather tough. Yours looks very nice, as do your other cards.

Thanks Dale. I hope some day to get the raw cards into graded holders and I'll see how I did.

Great pick ups David...I really need a 52 Snider...outside of the obvious cards in that set, the Duke may be the coolest looking...classic.

I actually got this card in March, but just received it back from PSA yesterday. It was part of a raw, near-complete '54 set I bought locally from the original owner who pulled them from packs as a kid. The Yankees cards were all pretty beat, as he grew up a Yankees fan. Luckily, he didn't care much about the Braves, so this one was well preserved. I let go of a better centered example of this card, simply because I like knowing where the card came from more. This one is staying in my PC for the long-term. Fortunately, I think PSA assigned the right grade to this one, as they've hammered me on my past couple of submissions.

Great card Jarrod. Knowing the story behind the card is one of the best things about the hobby. Fantastic!

Very nice, Jarrod.

Nice pick ups!

Like Jarrod mentioned, that price on Minoso is well dated as this card has really increased as of late.
