Rob - That is one nice 51 Bowman Fox card. Looks far better than vg/ex - closer to ex/mt. does it have back damage?

Back is as clean as it gets! I have definitely seen worse looking cards grade higher, but the technical grade isn't very important to me.

Nice pick-up on the Mantle Rookie, Derek. That knocks off the most expensive post-war rookie card from the list............

After finishing the T201 set, it's time to stay in the theme and go with the 1955 Doubleheaders. So far, I have an unopened pack (GAI 6) with Fred Marsh/Thies card inside, the Marsh Thies card (ungraded), Bilko/Milliken (UG), Spahn/Brewer (UG), Aaron/Herbert (SGC 70) and these two that I picked up this month!

The next time I tell a non-collector friend about my addiction...err, collection, I will now be able to answer the inevitable question: "do you also have a Mantle rookie"? Most people simply don't know who Nestor Chlylak is!

Thanks. The 2 beasts of the collection will be the 59 rookie and the 62 short print. I know many collectors don't like the fact that his rookie card has a pink background, but I like the fact that one of the nastiest pitchers in history of baseball has a pink rookie card and is smiling from ear to ear in the photo.

Grew up in St Louis and went to series in 64, 67 and 68. Pink may have lulled some folks to sleep, and Bob did not get off to a dynamic start, but the 59 set was the first one I finished and that is one of my favorite cards
