@rmh111985 The 88 Topps is a rare picture for Roy. He's got the classic 80's backup goalie look rocking with the towel around his neck. Not to often he was the backup.

Picked this one up, figured I’d have to get it sooner or later for the Hall of Fame rookie card registry. So now I’m ten years ahead of the curve.
Looks good. I'd send it in for a review and possible bump. If you're a super gambler, perhaps crack and resub.
I am very big into fantasy baseball and this guy has helped me win my league twice in the past 8 years (keeper league). Made the very tough decision NOT to keep him this year....I miss him already.
Bought this last night to pay homage to his incredible run for me since I took him in the 16th round in our 2012 draft. Thought it was a decent deal and I love me some Heritage gold refractors anyways. Sellers shady pic below:

First I'm going to try and identify any with HOFers on back. Those will be set aside to be graded. If they don't I'm going to rip them. I was planning to start a thread once they arrive. Haven't figured out a time frame yet. May rip one a month or something like that. How about you? If you're going to rip yours feel free to add them to my thread if you feel inclined to share. Anyone else who is going to rip them is welcome to post too.
@lotsos - Kevin not sure if I will rip or not but will watch for your post. Cool packs straight from a box!! On a side note a rare rookie hockey card came up for sale on PWCC recently that is pretty sweet and I managed to get it. I am going to have it re-holdered before I share. I think you'll like it and may have seen it on the auction. Hint: Black and Yellow.

Since there are only 3 teams in the league with black and gold jerseys I’m going to go out on a limb and rule out the Knights. I really hope it’s the one I’m thinking of. PSA 10 pop 1? If so that is AWSOME!
I recently picked up a nice looking and complete (with envelope) 1955-1957 Yankees Picture Pack. They’re all in pretty good shape and the Mantle looks like perhaps the best of the lot. Clean front and back but they’re photos, not scans. I’ll get scans up when I can...

It's one of my favorite early cards of his for that simple fact, that it shows an all-time great goalie ready to warm the bench all night. Certainly not the action shot you'd expect for a 500+ win tender.

My earlier pickup reminded me that I also grabbed a 1962 Yankees Team Issue Set (Picture Pack) not too long ago, having sold the other one to a Mantle nut who needed it for his Master Set. That one now resides in a PSA 5 holder and while happy for him I never like to part with anything. Perhaps it's just hopeful eyes, and sure there's some tilt but this may in fact be even nicer and it has really, really sharp corners. It will be going to PSA very soon along with the '55-57 above and a few other Jay and Team Issue Mickey's. And I hope to have my 1954 All-Star Photo Mantle back in it's new Jumbo by month's end.

just picked this up tonight.. sorry for the scan quality , ill try to get a better picture soon.. its a signed winnipeg blue bombers football picked up at value village in the sporting equipment.. not sure the autograph name though
More slabs as I catch up scanning- two from January and two from February. These die cuts are a bear even pack fresh. The red refractors are prone to production issues happy with the 9 however a little disappointed in the Interleague as I didn't catch minor chipping on one of the edges before sending in. Ah well.
The biggest lesson I've learned in this hobby, and in life, is that if you have a strong conviction, you owe it to yourself to see it through. Don't sell yourself, or your investments, short. Unless the facts change. Then sell it all.
They are factory sealed, unopened with the cartridge/manual inside. As a kid, I still remember staying up until 4AM playing the Atari 2600 at my grandparents house in South Florida, specifically Asteroids.

Here are my recent basketball pickups. Not all are from March, but I don't think I posted the Feb ones in Feb, so here they are now.
First up, a tough die-cut Michael Jordan insert.
Next up, I have been picking up HOF Topps Chrome Refractors over the past year and a half. A lot are ungraded but for the big guns like MJ, Kobe, Lebron or any HOF RC's I like to have them graded. I prefer PSA over BGS, but I couldn't pass up the deals on the Kobe BGS cards. I may look into attempting a crossover on them since their subgrades are all 9.5+.
I will close with some ungraded Lebron cards. I am looking to get his base Exquisite run. This is a start.

Those are very sweet. Where at in South Fla? I grew up in Miami (Kendall) hence my screen name. No I am not a cat lover either - I played at Kentucky and since they are the Wildcats it was an easy name to make. Next like I will do something easy like Mr Snuffleupagus 😄

A few more slabs catching up. Saving the big dogs for later the majority scanning now are registry stuff or for resale on feebay. The McGwire Lords Of The Diamond has a dimple on it only thing that prevented it Gem10.

BTW, has anyone noticed that there is a new type of holder being used lately? My latest sub was back to the previous type. Compare the Gullett above to the other two. Look at the PSA logo on the lower right and the appearance of the case at the very outside edges.

Here are my latest arrivals. For those that read my thread about the card that my mail carrier delivered to the wrong address, the 58 Aaron AS is the card that it happened to. The 68 OPC and 70 Kellogg's are my first graded OPC and Kellogg's cards.
I was not going to post this initially as I bought it more for its value as a ‘manufacture piece’ rather than as part of the set itself; per se. It’s a really cool set that also has wrestlers and boxers, too, but I decided originally that I’d be working only the baseball players, as it has a good mix of names on the checklist and the year of 1946 puts it in an era where many of these retired legends were still among the living.
Anyhow what made me scoop this was a decent price and the ‘2 for 1’ appeal as these are typically found as singles. And what made me post it? I know that we’ve got a few boxing collectors on the boards so I hope they can appreciate it; I’m mostly a baseball guy.
