May Pickups

I was jealous and didn't even realize it was Venezuelan!

Nice Ryan RC card....my find is not quite as rare as a Venezuelan, but a tough to find (for me) MB card. Bought an inexpensive junk lot of 68s that had some 1st/2nd series cards pictured, and found this and 8 other MB cards embedded within the lot(none pictured in the auction's scans). Ironically, this Brinkman was the nicest card in the lot. Now up to 63/77 with the MB BB set and 25/33 on the FB set just by pulling cards from random lots I have purchased.

Beautiful Ryan rookie! When you hinted in your prior post, I assumed it was that one.

...midgrade lot fell into my hands....love that 1953 Bowman Color of Richie Ashburn.....so many eye-candies in that set...

...that's Granny Hamner on the left and maybe a rookie card of a young Mel Allen on the right...

[MikeGarcia]

That's Mel Clark , not Mel Allen. I'm tired.

My SGC shipment came back today; full of a pile of Joe DiMaggio stuff I have been saving. The tipping point came when I got the Camp Cooke DiMaggio (a HUGE thanks to T206Jim who made a deal with me for the raw card), and I didn't want to take the chance on something happening to it.

Needless to say, I was ecstatic to get them in hand.
The only problem I have know is that I have too many cards for the case! I have been tinkering around all evening, trying to get them all to line up right.
I have so many DiMaggios, I am thinking I have to kick out either a Babe or Mickey to make everything fit!

I hate to keep flooding the thread with my 58's, but what hell! , but i cannot figure out how to rotate on this new Mac. I picked up the Aparicio at my LCS today and Wynn yellow letter on the bay.

Thanks!
