Bob---your daughter has a great eye for cards. Where in Australia will she be ?

Having spent some time over there I highly recommend you visit her

Cards of Cards.

Great Musial, Peter. I am a Gibson fan but favor his 60 card. I just can not look at him very long surrounded by pink. And that may be the last time he smiled. His stats are terrible on both

[Beatles Guy]

Wow Peter, that centering on Gibson is rare indeed. I agree with Al though, it's such a tough card to look at. I collect Cardinal RCs and some of my favorite players have some terrible looking cards. Besides Gibson, Brock and Flood are hard to look at.

Great Musial!

And I'm with Al, you gotta go to Australia! I went 20 years ago and I'm dying to go back.

Gotta have the RC.

[ALR-bishop]

I have it, I just don't look at it

I picked up '62 Jell-O Joe Torre in an SGC holder, and finally found a '63 Jell-O Joe Torre.

I already had a '62, but this one looks a little nicer in my Joe Torre collection.

Sweet Stan the Man! Never see that card centered like that. Well done!

And my first 1955 Bowman . 👍

Just picked up this 64 Mick for a decent price. Very nice eye-appeal for a PSA 4 in my opinion.

[DBesse27]

Sick Mick!

[KCRfan1]

Great looking Mantle JB!

Nice! I picked up the same card as my Christmas gift to myself this year. One of the most affordable early Mays cards, and one of the best looking IMHO as well.

Thanks Al. Yeah to the "eye for cards". She had three different friends back out on her over the past 18 months as she worked for ten bucks an hour (Starbucks, golf course, cashier), saving her pennies. She finally said "To hell with it, I'm going myself. I didn't quit school to not travel."

She's flying into Sydney, and has no other plans except hoping to catch on with others at hostels.

While I have never been there myself, I'm pretty sure she doesn't want me hanging around while she is backpacking... . Myself, I'm happy with any golfing holiday I can manage...
