Very nice glove box. I still need to add Brooks to my collection. There’s a few that I’ve seen over the years, but have never acquired. All the examples I have seen have a decent crease since it’s located on the corner of the box.

Thanks Mark. The Brooks has a crease on this one too. The panel is far from good condition but works for me. Good luck in your hunt!

I rarely send cards in for grading--not because of any thoughts regarding the process, but rather because hobby funds are limited. Well, I bit the bullet and sent these in. Unfortunately, when doing so, I accidentally provided the company the wrong address. They were sent there and signed for by the new tenant, who never contacted me. Two weeks later, I discovery my mistake. Fortunately, the landlord put me in touch with the tenant and I was able to retrieve them today. Photo bucket won't let me share teh photos, but was fortunate to get the following:
1. 1961 Post Cereal Panel - Skowkron/Richardon/Mantle/Klubek - PSA 6
2. 1962 Life Magazine - Mantle/Maris panel w/ Tor. Sub Tab - PSA A
3. 1968 Country Cookin - Kneeling - PSA 4

Also grabbed these as the price was right and I love the premium photo:

This isn't a new pickup as I bought it in 2016. But it's my favorite Mickey item. Had these as a kid in North Jersey. Loved going to the soda fountain/cigarette/candy store near my house and flipping through them. Lot's of nostalgia for me in stuff like this.

Nice stuff guys; I grabbed three cards from the Small Traditions auction last night: PSA graded 1953-55 Dormand VG-EX, 1955-57 Yankees photo pack VG, and Holiday Inn matchbook EX. Added them to my Master Set registry and moved up from #36 to #33. Still waiting on my submission with Bobby on the main page, and working on another bulk submission with 18 Mantles so far, probably going to be close to 30 once I get them all in and send it out.

Hey Bob I wonder where that last photo came from? Reminds me of the 1963 Bronx Bombers card with Mick, Tresh and Richardson. Always thought a Mantle / Maris card would have been much better. Wonder if that was a Topps photo that they scrapped? Would have been a great card.

Dan:

I pulled the mag and saw that the two centerfold color pics are courtesy of Topps. There is no other attribution/credit for any of the other pics but it would seem logical that some of the others (including that one you pointed out) came from Topps as well. Great spot!

Nice pick-up Ben! If I had seen it, I might have "helped" Chris in increasing your final cost.

Chris, congrats on the grades, especially the Country Cookin' post card. Also, that photo premium as well as the entire Big League Baseball Game are great items.

Not one you see every day (or ever). I believe this is (was) a Bob Lemke special:
