HA. Wish I had more than one so that I could sell you my spare.

Although if memory serves, you were the underbidder when I picked mine up a few years ago, and graciously dropped out before the bidding got ludicrous, so I probably owe you one.

Post war can only think of 4

1. 1951 Bowman Willie Mays (5 or above)
2. 1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle (4 or above)
3. 1980 TCMA Ryne Sandberg (6 or above)
4. 1989 Bowman Tiffany Ken Griffey Jr (gem)

I’ve knocked off several in the last two years, but now I’m working on some of the big boys.

At the top of my list is either a ‘57 or a ‘60 Topps Mickey Mantle in a PSA 5-6, with strong centering. That’s going to hurt.

Also, a ‘57 Topps Hank Aaron same condition and eye appeal.

A ‘53 Bowman Stan Musial.

Those three will take me a while.

All #5 type collection needs that'd almost complete my 1960s list.

1960 Baltimore News-Post Orioles Scrapbook - Adair
1960 Henry House Skinless Weiners - Coleman
1967 Bazooka (whole box) - Stottlemyre
1967 Topps Stand-Ups - Swoboda
1968 Atlantic Oil - Banks (winner)

Banks is a big enough winner that perhaps none exist in the wild! Anyone seen at least a scan?

I have been saying for years here that I would gladly pay $20 PayPal each for scans or pics of 1968 Atlantic Oil Winners Ernie Banks and Billy Williams, I haven’t had any takers yet.
