July Pickups

Dave--Do not think I have even seen one of those, can you post it or send me a scan

Nice pick ups guys. Al - would you hazard a guess at how many exist in that condition, can't be many? My guess is you've been looking for that for a long time!

I picked up this Coates and now need 2 for the base set and 3 more variations for the master set. I would say this and Kaline are the hardest in the set to get well centered. I settled a bit on condition with this and it has a slight tilt, but I'm happy with it. This one has been a monster for me and it felt real good to cross it of my '61 checklist. Sorry for the large picture.

My bad Al- I have the wax wrapper for the 68 version of Action All Star Stickers. Here though, is the wax Punchout wrapper, from John Moran's never ending photo cave:

Wow, never knew that existed. Thanks Dave...and John. How big is the wrapper? Do we know if it had 3 card strips or just singles, and either way how many ?

Bill---on your master 61 checklist, are you using the Registry checklist. ? If so, do not look in the show me your print variations thread here :-)

Al-My guess, if it was issued, is the strips were separated and either one or two panels came within. Project number ends in 7, not sure if they were leftovers or meant to also be sold in wax at half the cello cost.

Al - not the registry checklist, more like the registry+!

This is one of my favorite 61 variations.

A lot of my cards look like that after a few drinks

Nice additions for everyone so far this month. Picked up these two HOF's this month. The 71 Topps and 57 Topps are probably my two favorite Topps sets even though I do not own very many of either year.

Nice Ben, the 'fat finger" McCovey variation.

Added these two to my '57 Topps Dodgers Team Set, only need Reese, Koufax, and Dodgers Sluggers to complete.



Also picked up this nice Robinson card. I whiffed on getting the Antonello in the same grade to get both Dodgers in this subset.

Posted back in June ,but just received the card a few days ago. The first Japanese American to play Pro Football for the SF 49ers and American to be elected to the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame, Wally Yonamine the Nisei Jackie Robinson from Hawaii.

Cool item, Ron. What does back look like ?

Great pick up Ron. As a Japanese American whose mom and grandparents were interned in WWII, I really appreciate his place in history and some of the barriers he must have faced. His story seems under publicized and I for one am ashamed for not even knowing who he was until a few years ago. I'd love to pick up some of his cards some at some point.

Picked up these 2 for our continued journey. After shipping, $5/each...I was pretty pleased. Especially love the background colors and the centering (at least on the front).

Been looking to add these to my collection for a while. In my opinion, they're two of the best looking cards of the 50's.

Really nice cards at a good price. Congrats on the pickup.
