Well, technically, this is just beyond the board cutoff date of 1980, but I don't care. This is a vintage card, not a shiny card, so it belongs here.

Nothing really fancy, the card only cost about $11 + shipping. But it's the first card I've bought in some time, so it feels good to have something new to look at.



Latest addition to my Topps Robin Yount PSA master set. Really nice card with exceptional centering.

I'm hoping to make it back to work by the summer. If so, then I'll be able to really start playing with my collection again. I had to choose one "hobby", and my movie collection took precedence, as I'm going to write about film. 18 months later, and nearly 900 blu-rays into my collection, I'm ready to get back to work on the '75 Topps set, the '53 Bowman and T206 set.

I overpaid for this one, but it was less than lower graded copies currently up for sale...and it completes my 'pseudo' Koufax master set (no bazookas yet)

NOTE: The real deciding factor in purchasing this card when I did was directly related to EBay's lowering of the base Ebucks reward from 2% to 1%.
I used all of my fourth quarter Ebucks to help pay for this one. I'll never be able to get that kind of boost at 1%

Also leaves only 11 cards, all vintage, on my official shopping list.

A great start the new year with some great pickups already.

Irv, way to start it off with a 52 Topps pickup. The set of sets to collect for sure. Congrats on adding Overmire to your collection.

Jerry, absolutely love the Spahn. I picked up a PSA 4 not long after I got back into collecting about 3 1/2 years ago. Classic pose of Spahn!!

Mike, Nuff said on the 52 Mantle!! Very Nice indeed.

Raymond, congrats on landing the Koufax. Great looking card congrats again on knocking that one off the list.

been looking for one in my price range for some time. Really like the image, and for a 2, the corners and centering are pretty good

FREE with my eBay Bucks today.
Yankee Lot really fits my ongoing 54T set effort.

Also added this gorgeous 8OC. Somehow the spectacular image overrules the centering on this one. Its a keeper.

The stunning clarity of the art on this Mantle is off the charts Neal.
Nice centering too.
Congrats on your long awaited pick-up.

I'd give the centering more than a pretty good well done!
