August Pickups

The Hunter is crooked in the case, looks much nicer in person....and the Dewey is outside of my hall of fame collection purview, but I think he deserves admission, so he's in Carl's Hall of Fame rookies...

Awesome pickups-- both super strong for the grade. That Dwight Evans is a slept-on RC for sure.

Thanks, Matt! ...and by the way, your posts have been influencing and increasing my eye for centering in a truly desirable card... I'm still gaga over that Bench rookie you got in a 4 that looks every bit as nice as my 8..

Thanks! Glad you are digging the latest additions. Just copped these bad boys on my now-nightly ebay treasure hunt for low-mid grade centered cards...

The 63 Mick will tap down in holder and look great; don't know why more seller scans aren't made sure to be flush with the bottom of the holder. But it's good for those of us who scrutinize such scans and realize it's not tilt but the scan. At first I was going to pass on it because I mistakenly thought I could find better centering, but then I looked at all the 4s and 5s on VCP and completed ebay sales and quickly realized this is about as good as it gets; these Micks are pretty hard to find centered, that's for sure.

The Ford is just such an awesome photo!

I may be addicted...
