March Pickups

Not a card, but thought this was still relevant to share. Just received the LOA for this today!

What a unique find! Super.

I never post my pickups here because quite frankly I feel a it intimidated by most of the high grade cards. I am a collectors collector. I enjoy the beaters with good eye appeal.
Having said that the card I have been wanting for a very, very long time arrived today. A special thanks to Pete Sycks for working so well with me to make sure I add it to my collection. I was hoping it would be the final card needed for this set completion but it was mailed so fast and I am still waiting on the arrival of a few more from other members as well as an auction site. Now on to my next project.

Here it is. The only 52 Mantle I ever wanted.

drew,

keep posting them! and don't ever feel intimidated. I can sit and look at mantles all day long whether they are 1's or 10's. ironically enough, I sealed a deal with pete on this same card (not exact same, obviously). so far it's been smooth sailing both customer service and price wise!

bobc,

I just picked up a raw 47 bond bread berra. didn't pay much for it at all (maybe $30-$40) and was listed as an original, but have you ran into many repro's or have any info to share on this set?

I'm sure there are others here that know far more about these cards than I do. I believe the square-cornered versions may be of questionable authenticity. I just think the cards are cool and this Feller came at a good price.
