Congrats. You don't see those come up for sale very often.

These are really April pickups but just got them in scanned tonight.

First Rose RC I have owned in years.

The 1970 Kellogg’s cards are just fantastic...

The Topps Test Disc looks amazing!

Peter - That 6 is stunning! WOW! Nice pick up.

Nice one Peter!

May birthday month plus 15% off means bigger purchases than I’m used to. Grabbed a low grade Brooksie rc for TTM and a couple of HOF RC’s. Saved over $60 off the Banks/Kaline. Got the Brooks a couple days ago.

Wanted to grab a Rose RC as I’m less that 30 cards from the 63 set but with nothing in my range at a good value it will have to wait. Really wanted to take advantage of the 15% coupled with gift cards.

Thanks Mark, Im happy to finally add it to my collection.

Nice cards guys

just arrived .... one of the greatest PSA 3's I have ever owned. Asked the seller, and he said there is the slightest surface wrinkle under his neck area ... moving the card at an angle you can see one, but it is barely there.

Zounds-a tough one for sure!

Sweet Willie. That is the best 3 I have ever seen. Congrats.

A PWCC-HE sticker would look nice on Willie. :eek:

Holy Toledo! That is a beautiful 52 Mays. Congrats, Neal.

Anyway, I added a few cards to my growing collection recently. Kalines and Killebrews are always welcome additions, and this is my first Clemente, so that's exciting.

Great pickups all over this thread

Picked up some duplicates at our local monthly show this past weekend. The “collector” grade Mantles cost $45 total for both. The difficult to find Choo-Choo Card was stickered at $30 but all the dealers cards were 50% off plus discounted 10% if you bought more than one card. So the ‘66 hi number short print tough to find “Choo-Choo” was $13.50 a bargain I think!

I also found 36 “trashed” 1972 Topps Hi numbers in the dime box. HELP!

Wow! Incredible Mays/3, Neal.

Congrats! :)

I posted this on the Mantle thread but after a hiatus, it feels good to be adding this classic piece of cardboard to my meager collection.

72 Hi numbers in a dime box? How could you not buy them all Larry!?

Nice.

Love the 61 Clemente. Really nice!

Using the recent ebay coupon code, I was able to grab up this beautifully centered 1961 Mays high number at a good price, bringing me incredibly close to finally finishing off this nightmare of a tough set...

1947 Bond Bread Jackie's
 

Fully Bonded

Not really the grade/condition I was after, but this card was a tough one to obtain.

Fantastic Mays Neal! I'm jealous -- still need that one.

Here's a mixed batch of my April and May additions.

Awesome card Jarrod! Wait, Mickey isn’t wearing a bow tie?? :D

May Pick Ups
 

eBay splurge, now I need to sell some things...With due respect to the card with burlap borders, this is my favorite early Ryan. Still with the Mets, a bit of an awkward pose, and a high-numbered card in one of the last sets where that would matter.

The 1952 Topps Set:
 

Also known as the impossible dream (completing it anyway)

Some months ago, I decided to take on the easier portion of the set, cards 1-280. With the two cards shown here, I have completed that.

Next are the next thirty cards: #'s 281-310. I just purchased ten of those thirty along with six others I already owned. So, I need just 16 more to have the first 310 cards of the 407-card set.

Everyone knows who #311 is and I don't see ever landing one of those. Goes against my principles (and bank account) to grossly overpay, even an essential card like that.

I only own three of the remaining 97 cards in the set and may not manage to get much closer...so, the 310 will most likely be my 'farthest on' point.

Awesome Jackie Robinsons!!!

Troy

Thank you sir!

I took a Chance...

Ha! Maybe I'll draw one on him, Curt. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt the value much. ;)

Some 65Ts.

Nice cards, Raymond. I am fairly close to completing my #1 to #310 run as well, but with some pricey cards still needed to complete that run, I am not so sure that will happen let alone the #311 to #407 run.

I'll keep picking away here and there but there currently isn't any rush to complete it. I enjoy the challenge/chase anyways, so as long as I am having fun, that is all that matters. :)

Working on a Fergie auto run like my Brooks run posted in the April thread. Also gonna work on Ryne Sandberg soon. I’ll probably get these cased up eventually when SGC has another special as I really like the look.
