Recent Raw Pick ups from a card shop!

[nrm1977]

Yes card shops still exist.

The shop I went to is about 45mins away in IL. They don't sell graded cards and have a huge selection. One of the last remaining card shops around here.

They had a July 4th sale 50% off. If I would have gotten there early I would have had a nice EX+ Ernie Banks rookie for $300. A beautiful 1955 centered, 4 sharp corners Aaron I had my eye on since the last time I went in. The only flaw was a water stain on back, honestly if the Hank didn't have the water stain on back it would easily be Mint+, beautiful card. You snooze you lose!

I was still happy with my two card purchase.

1955 Topps All-American Red Grange $100.00. There is a small factory pd above his head, centering is decent, corners are nice.

1977 Topps Walter Payton. $10.00 Other than a small factory pd on top, this card is awesome looking!

PS- It's always awesome finding raw cards that still look nice.
