A big thank you to a Net54 member who reached out after seeing me post regarding this card. Creeping along toward set completion as I was able to add 3 in 2013.

I been wanting one of these for a while. I just keep getting outbidded, well one finally laid in my lap at the right time..sometimes its worth the wait.
Santa came a bit early:
1951 wheaties premium


i was the somewhat 'unlucky' bidder on this one..I thought it was unique and didnt really put much attention into it..So i placed a very mininal early bid....then find out days later...its nothing more than a magazine cut-out..buts holds some nominal value to PSA set collectors...so maybe all is not lost.
1966 Nolan Ryan The Sporting News pre-rookie ..needed for PSA registry now ,,,still fits into my RC collection somehow.

WOW!

If I had a Nolan registry set, I would be PISSED that this thing exists.

I guess it just shows how little the people who get paid for their opinions care about the people who pay for their opinions, in comparison to their bottom line.

That's a funny one,
Doug

Chris: You have BOTH 1955 Exhibit Card Postcard backs? One with the plain line and one with the Mutoscope line on the back?

Couldn't pass on this beauty for 20 bucks
1975 Topps Yount.jpg
(the Yount, Brett and 1980 Topps Rickey will always be $250 cards in my mind!)

Nope. I don't have the Pittsburgh Exhibit Mantle, either of the postcard back Exhibits, or the Dad's Cookies. I set my collecting goals at what I could reasonably expect to find. My thoughts were that I would add those cards that a kid growing up in the 50s and 60s could reasonably expect to find. From my understanding, I believe the Postcard backs had very limited distribution. In total, I have been able to pick up 235 different cards. I think there are roughly another 30 cards out there that were issued of Mantle (foreign, Topps test cards that were issued, and regional issues). I really hope to be fortunate enough to continue to define, and conquer, my "set" as money, time, health, and good luck allow. Right now, I have already moved 7 cards from my would like list to my want list. Someday, I hope to pick up the rest.

Want to sell your postcard backs?

Bought the magazine last week and not sure if I posted it--it is complete and both cards appear to be in great shape. Thanks Scott! Just picked up the color photo today. I've seen it described as a 1969 Team Issued Photo, but if anyone knows more about it I would love to hear. It looked period, and I have a thing for affordable premium issued photos.

Leon, love your bazooka items. Such crazy defects.


Nelson, the picture below is right a little more than half the collection. I started running out of space and did not think I could fit much more in the picture, so I did not disturb a couple stacks of cards. (Note: the carpet is brand new and not stained, not sure why it looks off color in the picture like that).

Before I ever starting to collect anything post war I had a list of five that "I'm never going to get these cards".

They were a 1968 Nolan Ryan rookie, 1953 Bowman Pee Wee Reese, 1953 Topps Satchell Paige, 1952 Bowman Willie Mays and 1949 Leaf Stan Musial.

Thanks to my wife as a birthday gift I was finally able to find the last of these five that I needed in a range I could afford and not look like it went through a washer machine.

So excited about this one as I have become quite a Musial fan over the last few years.

Amazing BestDj777 (Chris)
You never showed them to me before.
It makes me wanna take a group picture of ALL my Mantles as well.
Then again, i try using PhotoBucket and listed most of them in the B/S/T thread.
Bestdj777- that is an amazing pile...so envious on some of those. Maybe sometime down the road..i be getting my other 52 A RC variation.
I really like to have all mine by 1 TPG grader..probably all by SGC. Right now mine is all mis-match by BVG/PSA/SGC.

I just picked this one up from a Net54 member. Kind of a neat story goes with it, after we settled on price, he requested I donate the cash to an organization like the salvation army since we are in the season of giving. A nice gesture on his part for sure. Todd, the Salvation Army kettle got a little heavier yesterday. Thank you!
