Nice pickup. I was watching that card and was going to bid on it but got caught up in another couple of Bench cards. Congrats.

Beautiful Musial!!! I don't think most collectors realize just how tough these '55 Exhibit Postcard backs are. I spent a good 4-5 years trying to find a Robinson and finally gave on actively searching for one when I opted to sell my master set.

Wow-- a 51 Mantle is a momentous addition for any baseball card collection! Let alone one with such a sharp, striking image as that one. That card is hotter than a firecracker these days, with few nice ones surfacing compared to demand, and they are hotly contested when they do pop up. The true Rookie Card, and such a beautiful card, of the biggest hobby name alongside Ruth! Congrats and must make for such a Happy 4th!

Edit to add....speaking of 51 Micks

A buddy on the PSA boards came through in a major clutch way to help me get this one from across the country on this 4th. A card I've been scrambling to get more of before they go the way of their year-older cousin The left/right centering was love at first sight!

AustinMike and MattyC, (the Mantle hoarder)

Way to go on the Mantle rookie. I need to pony up get one before they get beyond reach for me. I don't think anyone will regret getting a 51 Bowman Mantle now but I am sure anyone that does not land one in the near future will regret not getting one sooner versus later. Congrats.

Great pick up Fred and thanks for the message (your mailbox is full and wouldn't let me respond. And, great Mantles everyone!
