Just a couple for my HOF rookie set...

A key acquisition for my team type set came yesterday via eBay (thanks to Brent at PWCC)! Good thing for me that SGC has their oversized grading special going on this month...

Nice pick-ups, Dave

thanks, Phil...I also picked up a '78 Laughlin Leon Day. Sure it's not a rookie, but, I really don't think I'll ever be able to afford any of the older Day stuff, and honestly up until now, the '78 Laughlin's have been somewhat elusive for me(at least at a decent price)...

Laughlin cards are great. One of the first cards I ever collected other than Topps(in late 1970's). They used to sell them at a place called the TOBACCO SHOP in South Miami. It was great, the smell of pipe tobacco in the air as I rummaged around through the boxes of cards.

Good prices on all of these. The Becker blank back was a welcome addition to my T207 set.

Yeah, they're generic as hell, and there's no reason at all that I should love 'em....But I do... I've got a good number of the '74's, but the '78 rarely seem to come up cheap...Finally, happy to have a '78..Someday, once I'm finished with the HOF collection, I may end up putting both Laughlin sets together..
