What's on your "National Hit List?"

IndyDave · #1 07-17-2023, 12:46 PM

Pre war I�m looking for some Diamond Stars as I work on my very low grade set - cards with writing etc are in my wheelhouse Also working on my 1941 Play Ball set - slightly better condition here - more a G to VG set - no major creases or issues.

I�m primarily focused on food issues in post war cards: Hostess panels (down to 8 needed ), Kahn�s all sports with a focus on 66-68 and 1958 Hires.

Also would like to work on 1969 and 1970 Milton Bradley

On the high end I�m looking for a 1950 Bowman Jackie Robinson in low grade and a 1958 Hires Willie Mays. Still need Ted and Joe in the 1941 Play Ball. 1950 Bowman football Motley and Graham.

At the end of the day I will probably come home with little of this and something I�m not even thinking of now - like the last Chicago national when I bought a lot of about 150 1949 Bowman

I would certainly be open to lots of 1939 and 1940 Play Ball, Goudey, 1951 Blue Back, Wheaties, Berk Ross, Kahn�s, 1971 OPC

Going back to the �good old days� thread, the best shows were always coming home with a big pile of cards.

Overall, with few exceptions, I�m looking for fairly priced cards or �bargains �. I�m not looking to set the market.

Time to work this week on making sure my want lists are updated and figuring out what backpack/ bag I�m taking and getting a box or two and some card savers ready.

Chris, I think Sterling has a Yellow Chance Cycle 460 (and EPDG and OM) in their next auction.

I will not be at the National, but I wish all of you fun and good luck hunting for your “hit list” items.

i struck out on my Hostess list though I have found 2 of the panels I need on line

I did get 6 Hires at the show and about 30 Kahns

I did pick up a Jackie Robinson 1950 Bowman in SGC 1

I never did find any lots of cards to buy.

Found other stuff - B18s in particular.

Happy with my overall haul
