    Hey thanks.... I would have never found that site. Appreciate the help. Mine is incomplete but still worth the 2 buck yardsale price my Dad paid for it.

    What do you know about that gardner Mantle game? I have one without the photo and record. I messaged a member on the board here who I thought might know but never got a reply. Nice looking '61 Mays also.

    Honestly not much, but I got this off an older guy that was selling all kinds of cool baseball/sports cards and memorabilia. I thought this game was cool and unique so I picked it up along with everything else you see pictured. I think it has all the original pieces to the game which is a plus. The condition is pretty good considering the age. Thanks @1951WheatiesPremium for posting the info!

    so you want to pay $300 to grade that card?...you need a 9 to make anything...

    Who’s to say I’m gonna sell it? I love the look and design of the 1976 card, and I add to my ‘76 set from time to time. I like having my cards in PSA holders, So yeah, I think I will spend $300 have it graded now. Not everything is about money. If I gotta spend $300 to have ONE card graded, I’m ok with that. Sheesh.

    Good luck. Yours easily beats the one I recently got back for centering

    sorry...did not mean to offend...just thinking that if you are going to keep it, might make more sense to submit at a much cheaper level and just wait for it to make its way back to you. Obviously you can do whatever you want with your money. Again, please accept my apology...

    Apology accepted. Hard to gauge emotion behind social media comments. I apologize if I over reacted as well. Now, on to collecting!

    Added this 86 Topps grocery rack with the ultra rare upside down Jose Uribe to the unopened collection. Uribe has an 85 Fleer Update card and an 85 Topps Traded, but it's his first Topps base card and this minty, pack fresh, upside down version is certainly much, much more valuable than the also popular 1990 Fleer Jose Uribe. Sorry, but please do not inundate me with offers, it's not for sale...😉
    .

    I like your 86 Grocery Rack; Yeah that's pretty cool.

    Is it true that the card can totally get you to the playoffs but just not the World Series?

    (Sorry, great card. But I couldn’t resist!)

    Future HOF manager Cito Gaston's rookie. First black manager to win a World Series and added a second in a row on top of that! Also stood up for the players and refused to manage replacement players when MLB went that route. Proud to add this one to my collection.

    bill davis is also on that card. has the distinction of having the most topps rookie cards that span 4 freaking years. not only that, poor dude never even got a full card to himself! 🥺

    April has been a big month for pick up.... got a 1/1 harper auto

    By today's standards I'd say Harper signs a pretty good auto. I hate when these dudes just scribble a line on the card and call it an auto.

    I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid.

    still. but just kidding on the ripping. put’er up! the value packs make much more sense to rip. yes, you get the pink refractors, but an avg of 3 international affairs cards come outta those megas. pretty crappy when the packs only hold 4 cards if i remember correctly. its been a while but ripped a ton of that stuff back in ‘18.

    Keith...

    Like the centering on the Reggie RC. Great pickup! Considering his RC is in the top three (Rose, Ryan, Reggie) from the 1960s...I feel his RC is undervalued.
