I may be meeting a guy in a couple days that would have plenty of 54 commons raw and roughly VG-EX. He wants to sell. Will let you know what I find out.

I just purchased this Frank Robinson to finish off an uncracked 1971 Kelloggs set.

Nice pick up on those 74s I had been watching that listing closely but didn't pull the trigger quick enough!

Hey Mike, nice Rose RC.

Here is my latest acquisition thanks to Taylor on BST....nothing as nice as that Rose though! 453 1974 Topps cards in pretty nice condition....

Awesome Musial!! I am in the market for one myself but in the PSA 2-3 range as that's all my budget allows. Great pick up!!

Very happy about this one. Went in search of this card a ways back and literally every one on ebay-- must have been a hundred examples-- was OC. Finally found a centered copy...

Nice! Ah, the chase for a centered card - I know your struggle well. Is it bad that I would take a well-centered card with a hairline crease over an O/C one without? I know some collectors (mainly of the old school variety) who aren't bothered in the least if a card is O/C - even bad like 85/15 - as long as it is clean and has nice corners. That's never been me...although in the days before the advent of professional grading it seems that centering was much less of an issue...

I digress. Nice '65 Rose.

Card I got rid of from my childhood vintage collection probably in the early 2000's and have regretted ever since. Finally made it right on the last day of February with this beauty, which is nicer than the original one I had. I don't collect anything super high-grade, just go for nice stuff with history and nostalgia. :)

Nice Rose MattyC. That is about as good as it gets for the 65 Rose. I have been looking for one as well but with no luck! Are you working on a Pete Rose set?

MattyC 03-01-2015 09:32 PM

Thanks. I just want to have his 63,64,65, and 67. Maybe 71,72,75, and 76 as well. Best thing about that 65 is that it's a PSA 3.5! Would probably 5 if resent raw but not my game these days. Was very psyched to see it. Went way over VCP but gladly.

nice 65. good year for cards and mustangs.

if I remember from my search a few years ago on the 65 rose, the centering was more of an issue from ttb vs ltr...

always seemed to hug that lower right hand corner w. very little bottom border.
