brown rookie
 

nice Brown rookie.. i picked one up last summer ungraded.. corners aren't near as nice.. prolly grade about 3.5-4 i'd assume.

Thanks, guys. I don't do too much in football, figured a nice Brown RC would be a good start......

Cannot do better than that: Brown is the Michael Jordan of FB as far as I am concerned. I finished my run of regular issue Topps/Fleer/Phila. Brown cards recently. Need a 1961 IA to finish the regular issue Topps run as far as I want to take it. Still working on the Kahn's, team issues, and Carlings [though at their sizes I may not bother].

I took a road trip (6.5 hour drive) to the Raleigh NC card show this weekend, and came away with a bunch of football cards including these low grade beauties. These are all tough short prints (numbers divisable by 3) NM condition can go for $100.

#51 Cowhig #39 Thomas #105 Cifers #93 Sears
Found in Kurt Turdots "bargain box" $5 each but I had to give $15 (maybe $17) for Conerly RC but I was glad to get them!

1964 Philadelphia #17 Mike Ditka (another $5 bargain box pick) finished my set!
1966 Philadelphia #38 Gale Sayers RC. I had to pay a bit more than $5 for this off grade example but I was glad to get it!
I just need FOUR more cards to complete the 64-65-66-67 Philadelphia sets!

Gonna have to snag the Sayers and Butkus rookies somewhere down the line. I don't normally buy graded cards unless they're listed cheap.. just picked this one up to help my '59 set along..

Cool Butkus & Sayers auto rookies, Rob.

Nice Ditka rookie.. yet another card i want along with the Fran Tarkenton. I like the action shot on the side..
