New FB Acquisitions

[vintagebaseballcardguy]

Fun day at the mailbox with the arrival of 31 additions to my 1965 Philadelphia set! Many of these were commons, but I did get the Hornung and a really colorful checklist. I also included a couple of scans of Giants players. I am finding the Giants cards to be really eye-catching. I realize this isn't considered a "major" set, but I am as happy with this project as anything I have collected in quite a while. Considering that I have been really unfocused over the course of my collecting life, it is rewarding to get on a project and stick with it. This will be fun to finish.

Love the '65 Philly, I love the photography on many of those. Good luck with the set as you move forward.

Purchases from the recent Sterling Sports Auctions, so I am off on another set
These cards were listed in groups of two, and I paid $45 for each lot (plus buyers premium and shipping).
Not sure how great of a deal I got, but I really like them, and they appear to be in line with my habit of trying to pay 10% of NM "book" or less.

National Chicle football is a great set and those are beautiful cards for that price. Good luck pursuing the set. Wish I had some duplicates to send up the road to Hilliard.
