Even though my dad's cards are poor-good they are worth more to me than the PSA 5's (especially since he got the 75 cards for a total of 75 cents!).

Now that, John, is good stuff. My dad unfortunately lost all of his cards when his mom threw them out when he left for the Navy...I have a few Yankee & Red Sox programs of his that are framed on my wall including a 49 World Series scorecard...wish I had all his cards...he said he had a ton. Oh well...take good care of those!!!

Ha. My dad threw his cards out the window. Really. Out the window.

I wish I had his cards. Said he had cards from the years 1960-1969 and about 5 complete sets from each year....probably had a bunch of mint Mantles and Pete Rose RCs.....

Grove is definitely my favorite...

The two on top are in my "Grove" collection.... The third one is in my "Diamond Stars" set.... The fourth one was my first pre-war card of Grove, which I will never sell....
