Thanks everyone. I’ve kind of held off on vintage because of the lack of Padres, but decided to start. It’s a good way to connect to the history of the game, especially for a thirty one year old Padres fan.

That's a very nice PSA 5. It always amazes me how much eye-appeal can vary within an across grades; that looks as nice or nicer from 2-3 feet away as a PSA 6 or PSA 7 that isn't centered...

Welcome aboard.

Great Mantle. And Williams is a natural fit for a San Diego collector because back in 1937.....

How do you collect your Padres cards, team sets, individual players, base sets, inserts, test issues ?

Wow! That's a great 5!
Congrats! Beats a Mike Ivie card any day.

Yea, I’m not extremely knowledgeable with the grades but had been watching PSA 5s for about a month since it was in my price range. Snatched this one up when I saw it on eBay. Still not sure why it’s a five. Was a little nervous since I thought it might be too good to be true.

Honestly it’s mostly bowman chrome of prospects. Have a lot of Fernando Tatis Jr cards, a Gwynn auto, some random Heritage. It’s kind of all over the place.

Fantastic Mantle my man. Welcome aboard on the vintage boat. Can't wait to see what the Williams is going to look like!
