Going back through my blog posts to find my pickups since I decided to start back in the vintage world. Nothing too spectacular on this one, but I still enjoy posting.

There were two shows in Dallas that day and at the first show (which is a twice-a-year show) I picked up these pieces, along with a vintage hockey card. If you're interested to see the hockey one, or read the blog post, you can click here. It's hockey, so I didn't want to post it on this thread.

Bosley played at my alma mater (WVU), so when I get the chance to pick up something at a low price, I don't pass.

I picked these beaters up because I'm working on the All-American set. I want to just complete it first, then will work on the upgrades. I've actually already upgraded the Hickman.

I was going to post a thread to update with my progress on the 55AA set, but didn't know if people might find it overkill.

Have a great evening, everyone!

I agree, I slowly built a PSA 8 set. It was a lot of fun a good time commitment. The players are timeless and the cards are some of the best looking out there. I've since moved on to other areas, but always love this set.

Was able to add Len's signature to a few wire/press photos I have had of him for awhile. One as an upstart Purdue QB, one from the College All-Star game and one from his days as a short-lived back-up Steeler QB.

One closer to completion on my 55AA set and another pickup for my HOF QB auto collection.

Nice pickups on Dawson and Graham - and you can read them!

Great auto's, guys! Love the Dawson and Graham.

Thanks guys. And yes, it is very nice to be able to read a signature. Makes it much more appealing. Do you think either of these guys ever had the thought to try something stupid like charging more money for signing their full name?
