June Pickups

Ian, that Ryan is a really nice 6! Well bought!!!!!!!

@Ian: Nice Mays Rc and Nolan Ryan Rc you got. Like i mention the Mays was a total suprise. I finally got my MB Ryan today. I held both the Topps and MB side by side and noticed the differences (front & backs) In fact the 5 Topp looked better than the 6 MB, but the MB had better color, it was more natural tone than compared to the Topps. I had to look back at Begsu's collection (BTW is great!) and noticed the Topps had more of the sunburn look especially on Koose.

@Jerry: Love that Stan. I might have to add one of those to go with my Paige/Jackie Rc's of that set.

Sidenote: I am on hiatus for now, burned a hole right thru the wallet with that unexpected Mays RC. So, i will start selling my football RC's and make room for more baseball as well. Plus, college football is nearing, and i go into a mole-hole for months. Go Gators! (tho i live in Ga)

Thanks Chris and Lou. Chris, I think you and I are collecting twins sometimes.

I was pretty happy to land these Mays cards along with a couple of the Reds. I thought these were very good price performers for the grades.

Now that is a sweet lineup of cards. Great centering.

Okay, I'll take'em all! THANKS! I've been actively seeking those exact 67 Rose and 58 Willie cards, too!

Wow - gorgeous set of cards!

Don't know if it was a "good" price or not but at $50 for nice centering, a clean Molitor panel, and no PD, I had to hit the BIN...

Good pick-up!
