All great.
Should the need to move the Ewing ever arise I'm not hard to find.
Been wanting one for a while. I was at a show 8 months ago and a guy would not move off a grand. (Even though eBay comps at the time were closer to 700) got this for less than half that
I am quite excited for this pickup as it helps me nail down "completion" on a set that I love: the 1949 All Star Photo Pack. The use of quotes is because I think this may have been a regional issuance where the core remained essentially the same but some of the periphery all star players on the checklist may have changed. Regardless, it's a great set from a remarkable era of baseball, chock full of stars and these new grabs are all pinhole perfect. The core that I mentioned will be the ones everyone wants to see so they'll apppear first and the three that I needed will follow; Nuke fills a void and the other two are rare pose variations of players I have already, though those are all EXish. So without any more pretense, here's my scans of a good percentage of the new partial set...
1949 All Star Photo Pack Stan Musial
1949 All Star Photo Pack Jackie Robinson
1949 All Star Photo Pack Ted Williams
1949 All Star Photo Pack Joe DiMaggio
1949 All Star Photo Pack Joe Gordon
1949 All Star Photo Pack Don Newcomb
1949 All Star Photo Pack Bob Feller

Congrats on completion. Great looking set and under appreciated by most.
Got a small ultra modern back today. Most of what I subbed was for a friend. Good news was the sub was all 9s and 10s. Bad news is it is ultra modern stuff and not much in the value department
Here are the 3 I am keeping 2 for the LSU collection and another Heritage action variation

Hey rexvos,
Pretty Cool on your Pink Camo Helaire...
I've been gravitating to 70's football of late. I feel some of these cards of the All-Time Greats are still undervalued in mid to high grade. I picked up this Roger Staubach rookie last week. I think that small blemish above the number 2 on the jersey keeps the card from being a higher grade, but I still feel the card has great eye appeal.

Bobby, this is one of my favorite cards, that's as good a 6 as I've seen. Great pickup!
Collecting anything and everything relating to Roger Staubach
Update from a previous post - I sent the Chronicles Draft Select Burrow Gold Prizm 6/10 in for grading and pulled a 10! Almost as fun as a winning lottery ticket. CHECK YOUR CHRONICLES CARDS. There are so many looks and parallels that it is easy to miss. I almost sold this card for $30.

Kiss me twice.....let's party.
not for sale at the moment .. just got it .. had to get it ordered through the card shop .
Just came in the mail today. Greg Morris collectibles offered it at a great price.
Yahtzee…that is a sweet Killebrew!
I've been picking up some modern RC lately, and I really love this card.
Centering looks great on those cards! Great Job
Bobby, this is one of my favorite cards, that's as good a 6 as I've seen. Great pickup!
I know that the 1984 set is known for Elway and Marino but the Dickerson rookie has always been my favorite card in the set
An OPC Mantle, there's a small scratch on the case by his name on front of card...

Very nice card
Wasn't in the market but couldn't pass up for less than $100.
I am from New Britain and have been to many games as a kid. The building in the background is our high school.
Credit John Turney at the Pro Football Journal blog for reigniting my love of football the last 3 years. Mac the Sack. Dude could rush the passer.
I'm from right down the road in Berlin. Lots of great memories of the NBee Red Sox.
Another Trout card...
