Always enjoy your Sabres collection posts.
Saw today Upper Deck finally landed Eichel for autographs.
Yeah so did I. Unfortunately too late for me. I have 4 of his 5 RC Shields plus a whole lot of other cards that should have had his auto to begin with. At least now I can get them signed without having to put a Leaf sticker on them.

Finally found the Reggie Miller rookie I've been looking for. A big thanks to Tim for adding another great rookie card to my collection.
Nice I am looking to get one of those for my collection.
3 HOF cards added to the collection. Although I've been a Cubs fan all my life, I've also attended White Sox games on occasion. I enjoyed watching Harold Baines at Comiskey back in the day.

Ok, I don't agree with Baines being in the HOF, but I'm not going to lie: that's a pretty badass card. Congrats on the pickup.
I don't post in the "acquisitions" thread as much as I should. Just picked this up right now. I'm a Greenwell collector, as some of you know, and an unopened collector. When the two collide, I tend to buy, unless the price is laughable (I'm not desperate). This was just the right price. $5 delivered. Greenwell rookie on top with Red Sox leaders. And an Eric Davis rack, to boot. Some of you grab $1000 Mantles; I grab $5 Greenwells. At the end of the day, we're both equally happy.

The happiness can’t possibly be equal. You’re happy +$995.
I think it’s clear you can’t beat that...

Broke my collecting pattern for this one, I just really liked the look of this card:
Main collecting focus is Patrick Roy playing days 85/86-02/03, expect 1/1, National/All-Star stamped cards.PC Completion: 2,548/2,952; 86.31% My Patrick Roy PC Website:https://proy33collector.weebly.com
I wanted to pick up a few low end Cubs from the T205 set last night. I only ended up with one card. Someone was going bananas bidding on the PWCC auction. I was able to get the Cubs catcher who was also a fantastic billiards player at the time. The card is just slightly off center, lol.

Here is a splendid '56 Topps Yogi for the Berra career set ... not only did this charming character win 3 MVP awards and finish 2nd for MVP another 3 times... He won more World Series Championships than any other MLB player in history with 10 .... enjoy

Tulsaboy..... that makes me drool!!! Love it..... bbce pickups or just random?
Local guy who was getting rid of his collection. Bought all of it, saved a bit of it, may rip some of it. My kids want to rip all of it but I'm an unopened guy not a ripper! But I would suspect I will let them open some of the 87 Donruss just for fun.

Wanted one for a long time. Not perfect condition but sharp enough to the eye and one of those items that PSA recently decided to start slabbing for the Mickey Mantle Master Set. I haven’t seen one in a while though I don’t believe they’re all that scarce, either. Still, I got one for my collection and I’m quite happy...

I picked up a Thurman Munson card. I like the action card with Thurman talking to Fritz Peterson on the mound. I also picked up a card by going to Amazon.com and applying for their credit card. You get $50 off for doing this if you don't already have one. I'm only 4 cards away from finishing the Bart Starr Set. Oh, and a warning. Make sure you put on your blinders before viewing the 59 Starr. This card has been known to blind people.
Just want to share before I tuck back away. I bought this Ruth a few years ago. I finally sent it in for re-holdering. Really fond of this card not only because its a Ruth but also the design is so cool with the iconic silhouette baseball scene incorporated at the bottom. Card looks great in the new holder!! It's the oldest card in my collection.

Will take all of these for 4 bucks and change that I can find. His HR last postseason made me instantly like him and he's got nasty stuff as well.
Always looking for tougher PSA 10's of Nolan Arenado, Alex Bregman, Mookie Betts, Francisco Lindor, and Mike Trout.
Thanks MLBdays. I appreciate it. I’m happy with it.

Just delivered from PSA. these are so tough.
A rare venture into anything other than baseball for me. Will be starting a thread about the related endeavor soon.
Big week this week for his alma mater (and mine).

That's a beauty!
A Brees Rookie pickup back from re-holdering. The Playoffs are heating up!!
Buying has been really slow.
Got this in the mail today. The card has a dinged lower left corner but overall looks great. Really pleased with it.
Great Brogdon! I'm a huge UVA fan and have started putting together a small Brogdon collection.

Beautiful 7.5
@MLBdays I can see it a little. I would like to have a better copy of the 71T. Currently I have a 6 that needs to get upgraded at some point.

While I just viewed a bunch of really nice cards, I always seem to be in the "deep" end of the pool and can't swim.
This started with 1 PEP cereal Babe ring and now? 21!
