Picked up this Mays 1962 Pittsburgh Exhibit beauty at the Philly show along with a handful of others like Aparicio, Berra, Cepeda, Drysdale, Walter Johnson, Killebrew, Koufax, Maris, Mathewson and Paige.

Looking for others

Member pick-up, thank you Mark. One of my favorite cards from the set, not only do you get a great image of Aaron but you get an action shot of Willie Mays sliding into home. I've been looking to upgrade my raw Aaron for a while now, I must have looked/tracked a couple hundred of these over the last year. This one hit the right combination of centering and skin color (they lean too red on some), the green label is a plus also.

Great looking card Phil. Mine is so chewed up. With a card as clean as this you can really appreciate what the card is supposed to look like.

Mine's a keeper. My dad bought it in 1956 when he was ten, and it suits me just fine. It's beat up because he played with it, which I love.

That's the most valuable 56 Aaron, great story.
