Picked up a couple of grail cards at the Chantilly Show yesterday to bring me with in 1 card of completing the 1955 Topps Set.

Nice cards Patrick, good luck on closing out the set.

Great iconic 55's Patrick!! Congrats on closing in...

I'll keep the 55 theme going, just got this back from SGC...I wonder how long this card was stapled to the kids wall? I love this card...it's my favorite of all the Jackies...

Wow, those are nice 55s!

I had a great mail day yesterday, including this 1972 Nolan Ryan. I've wanted an early career Ryan card, and I was thrilled to see this one once it arrived. And this 1967 leaves with only 6 cards remaining for my Kaline set.

Just got back from our local monthly show with four hits 1964 Topps Stand-Ups. All Short Prints!

Thanks for the kind words guys, now if anyone has a decent 55 yogi for sale let me know haha

I know, I know, this Joe D. isn't quite postwar---so how about post WW1?
Generally speaking, I'm a postwar guy and opted to share it here. This is a card I never thought I'd own so I'm pretty happy. I nearly forgot Mr. Parnell, #1 card in the '50 Bowman set. One pic is small, the other huge, I'm just happy I was able to get them both here.

[Harliduck]

That Joe can go on any forum...great pick up!

Finally got the 63 Bouldin rookie card #496 to finish my Senators run from 52 to 71. This last one was hard to get but I finally got a nice one to complete the run.

I also learned about Dalkowski's history while I was looking for Bouldin and I guess that contributed to the trouble getting one.

Regardless the Bouldin Senators Rookie is in the book now!

Cheers,

Butch

Nice card of Dalkowski/Bouldin. That card is on my wanted list for Dalkowski's sake, but I haven't been looking for it with much vigor. His is certainly an interesting and tragic story. What might have been.

If you haven't seen his story, watch this - The Steve Dalkowski Story.

It sure made for a hard time to find one within my range. This one fit the bill, the others I have seen are stratospheric for sure.

Thanks for the link,

Butch.

I never thought I'd ever own one of these. It's been a great month!

A beauty, as well as the Parnell and Joe D. You need to show off more here! LOL.

Was able to finish off my 1955 set and I'll post my last card when it arrives but in the mean time Ive decided to pick back up the 56 Topps set so added these guys to get me back up and running.

[Sluggerrr]

Great looking cards! We have similar taste. I picked up the 56 Ted earlier this year, and I should get the 56 Koufax in the mail next week!

[Harliduck]

Crazy...I just got these in the mail yesterday with a few others I had graded.

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Thanks, guys!
