Loving the collector's grade stuff! Right where I live...

Picked this Exhibit card up this week in an auction. Postcard backs for these exhibits are really tough.

This is a fun set to talk about too!

I have been getting rid of my football cards to streamline my collection, but when I saw this card. I just had to have it.

somewhere i heard or read that's his cadillac in the background of that photo. i think several of the players are pictured with it.

what are you streamlining to.. if i may ask? i've got a lot of cards left over from packs.. i just started making sets..and boxes with leftovers and doubles.

Baseball and specifically Detroit Tigers. Almost done with post war. My side ventures are 1952 and 1958 baseball sets in low grade and 1967 in high grade.

cool beans. I'm wanting to put a '58 all star "set" together. i've got one card.. the Warren Spahn. Will take me a long time as I will just pick em up if i can get em cheap..

Still chipping away at the Chicle set. I'm down to needing just these:

#1 DUTCH CLARK
#21 CLIFF MONTGOMERY
#22 SHIPWRECK KELLEY
#24 CLARKE HINKLE
#25 DALE BURNETT
#26 JOHN Dell ISOLA
#33 ERNIE SMITH

I'm really happy with my new Masterson despite a stray red line near his throwing wrist, but as you can see, the Macmurdo has some issues. It's never ideal when you have to look at another card to figure out what the back of your card says :)

speaking of stray lines.. i've seen quite a few '57 Topps Y.A. Tittle cards with a red dot on the left border. Printing isssue, ink?.. may be me.. or nothing.. just a general wondering. Baseballist has the similar on page 1

brewing - heading in the wrong direction if you're culling out your football cards! Stick around and check out some of the stuff posted in this Forum and maybe you'll change your mind:D That Jim Brown is a killer!

Love the Chicle, 1957, '55 AA sets so these cards are great!
