If I can continue to find PSA 5's and 6's like these, I'll be a happy set builder.

Neal - Those are ridiculously nice.
Great pick-ups. Only the set builder gets Granny Hamner! RayB

There have been some beautiful cards in this thread. Thanks to everyone who has shared. In surfing ebay, there seems to be very few well centered examples of the big HOFers. I have thought about stepping away from the '65 Topps set I am working on and spending time on this set. It would definitely be a test of patience! I really love the look of the photography, the uniforms, stadium backgrounds, etc. My collecting has gotten so selective on centering I just don't know if I could survive trying to do this.

I am not a graded card guy Larry. Raw Card Review ? Paying someone to tell you what they think you should think about your cards ?
RoyaL Canadian Regiment is also a possibility :-) Last edited by ALR-bishop; 08-25-2016 at 09:55 AM. |

I've thought about the set in passing but don't care to collect commons, so I never went for it. I've had these since I was a kid:
![]() ![]() ![]() Got the Musial signed about 25 years ago. Last year I didn't like the way things were going with prices so I picked up this one: ![]() I think clean vg or signed is where I will land on this set ![]() ![]() I am in the minority for the set in terms of fronts. I prefer the 1957 design for the ID data. If only the 1957 could have had the 1953 caliber pictures to go with it...

Adam - Nice stuff. The stark wordless nature of the 53B make them appear more like a photograph than a baseball card. Tru dat.
However; there is something uniquely ethereal about these images. No other set I can compare it too relative to coloration, poses, camera angles and concise era-relative content. Simple perfection. Great thread. RayB

Nice cards, Adam. Certainly an issue that works nicely with signatures!
as far as the 57s, I am in that minority as well. Love the design and the "darkness" that others seem to notice. Kind of sets it apart from the Topps and Bowman issues that preceded and proceeded the set

This card is the only member of the set I currently own, but I am thinking about beginning again. I honestly wouldn't mind finding a centered mid-grade Mantle right off the bat.

Is it me, or is the 9 in the 59 on back colored in?
