Big day for my ‘67 set, this one has been on a want list for quite some time. The entire set will still be a while in putting together, but it’s now actually more of a possibility than a pipe dream:

John....CONGRATS! Thats a big pickup right there...long gone are the days where you could pick an EX card up for a 100 bucks, and that wasn't that long ago. That is a beauty...no creases and really centered, super clean... nicely done. BTW...I am a glutton...when I finished my 67s I just kept buying high numbers when I would see a good deal as I couldn't stop looking...it was like an addiction...lol. I'm now at 450 cards towards a second set! I do need another Carew and Seaver...so...there is that...lol.

That's a monster of a card to get a hold of (or tuck away in your binder). Congrats!!!!!

Already have a raw one with a few annoying "waves" for my new set, but saw this and couldn't resist the upgrade. Go nice with my SCG 50's collection...




Also picked this up with a few others on a really nice set break on the bay...may have to write a number "8" on there... My set is really coming together...

Thanks John. I actually didn’t expect this one to happen for a while, but had been on a selling kick of sorts and just extended it to make it work. Especially with graded, this one is going nowhere but up apparently. I figured I had better pickup a raw copy before those go crazy too. There is a podcast somewhere on the ‘67 set where I think Rich Mueller and Jim Beckett are discussing this card, and Rich was recalling being able to buy as many as you could walk away with from bins at Nationals in the late 1970’s for like $2 a pop or something. Too bad I was a toddler at the time...

I scored all of these as a lot. The 56T Mantle has a couple of small surface creases, but very hard to see. Great eye appeal overall.

The Aarons are duplicates for me and are available for sale/trade if anyone is interested.

I was happy to get that card years ago. The one I have has a crease through the Minnesota player (Rod whatshisname) but I got it for Hank Allen. I was chasing it for my Senators team sets.

Nice pick up.
