1961 Marichal
I decided to buy some post-war cards today from Tony at Monster Cards at a show in St. Louis - love this Marichal. Great color even if a bit OC.

A few more from Tony - thank you!
Tony gave me what-can-only-be-described-as the deal of all deals on these 3 beautiful cards - 2 favorites and Rickey.

Hey Mike, well done. I live in the St. Louis area and have bought hundreds maybe in the thousands of cards from Tony over the years in my set building endeavors. A great guy and the fairest, most honest dealer I have ever encountered.

Gaylord Perry went from having his own RC in 62 to sharing one in 63.

Another neat fact, Mike Cuellar was in 59 and 60 Topps and didn't appear again until 65.

December pickups
This will be a December to remember. Leading off, what may now be the best card in my collection, thanks to a fellow board member.j Up next, my first card of Chuck Klein. Hard to believe but these two guys were second and third in all-time HRs by National Leaguers at the time Hank Aaron broke into the majors.
And then pulling up the rear, a nice upgrade over my prior 1974 Aaron, a 1969 Banks that I thought looked nice for the price, and a Joe Morgan rookie card. Hornsby_1935_DS_SGC_4.5.jpg Klein_1940_PB_SGC_3.jpg Aaron_1974.jpg Banks_1969.jpg Morgan_1965_RC.jpg

I've brought this up before, but it bears repeating. The '69 Banks is ridiculously hard to find centered. Well done!
