Scanner is back up and functional again after being down for several months. I hope that I am not posting cards again (having previously used scans from seller)...if so, I apologize. Here are relatively recent pick ups...I know the 1974 Aaron has never been posted since it is a PWCC purchase.
That 74 Aaron is stunning! That's one of my favorite cards.
Collecting anything and everything relating to Roger Staubach
Here are two (2) additional cards, which I have not posted before (Jackie Robinson has not been posted for sure since it is again a PWCC purchase). I retrieved the cards from a safety deposit box this afternoon. These two (2) cards bring me up to date sharing my relatively recent purchases.

Those are stunning....thank you for sharing. Safety deposit box is certainly warranted!
I think that it is the card up against the frame of the holder…it measures correctly for a 1955 Topps card size…measured in several places (left, center and right side of the card).
Added a bunch over the last couple weeks , just posting these now
1st is a absolute monster and a great upgrade of my 8
Then a few upgrades for my team card set
And a few random add on

Quirky card show pick up. Commemorative 50th anniversary set for the 1953 St Louis Browns. Nice add for my Roy Sievers collection.
Didn’t know you’re a Sievers collector. I don’t think I ever shared this one:
Nice! I've never seen a Venezuelan Sievers. Yes, I finished his graded "Basic Set" last year. Sievers was one of my dad's favorite players, so I just started collecting him when I got back into the hobby a few years ago. Not chasing the Master Set, but I grab odd ball releases, team cards, exhibits, etc...when I see them.
This one arrived about 2 hours ago. So excited to kick off the weekend with a MASSIVE get for my favorite set that I am actively trying to finish. New cards from the set rarely pop up and most often they’re the stars. But some guys? Some guys just never show up. And I got one, a pretty one and with a ‘La Sortija’ back!

~A Career E.R.A. of 2.47 is fairly outrageous considering that the HOF committee just opened the doors for Jack Morris with a career 3.90 E.R.A.. ~2018 Heritage Chrome Superfractors 1/1

It's amazing how Kershaw seems to be underrated, despite playing in a huge media market. He doesn't rack up the innings totals that he used to, but he's been really good for a decade and a half.
I picked up a Kaline that I needed at the Philly Show last night.
I always wanted one of these as a kid. POP 5 but there's 71 higher than the PSA 4 I purchased but the eye appeal got me. I might be wrong, but I feel Larry Bird & Magic Johnson are still undervalued compared to Jordon, Kobe and LBJ.

I almost bid against you on that 74 Aaron, but got distracted and completely forgot about the auction. When I logged on it was already gone.
Congratulations. Super-sweet card.
Wow - super nice Aaron (and Mick)!

I got lucky on the 2nd of the Throwback Thursday Topps Star Wars set of 3 cards.
Reported that every 20th purchaser of the set will get included some kind of SP.
Well, I hit a 5/5 Boba Fett!
Not sure how but the scanner didn't pick up the "/" in 5/5?
What year are these? I don't think I've seen them before.

Wow those are two beauties. You definitely have an eye for amazing cards.
Is it just my eyes, or does the top back of the Jackie card look "wavy"...trimmed?...Maybe its just the scan...

I find there’s a certain thrill to each of your post.
Loved the player, love the card, too.
Nice grab

Bought this raw
I rarely buy auto cards.
I gave away an auto Jeter years ago to a sick kid here on the boards.
I just got around to picking one at what I thought would be a fair price.
these just delivered...
