The scan is useless but at 48% of SMR I'll take a chance.

Go Eagles!

    Thanks BWF, your scan tells me there's at least there's some white border on the bottom which is good. I'm thinking I got a steal! Thanks for the help.

    Hi Scott
    I think it looks pretty sweet for that kind of dough! You still working on the Bowman set also?
    Congrats on a good buy!

    Hey Mike
    Thanks for the congrats. I'm now at about 48% on the 55 Topps in 5, 6 & 7. I'm in a bit of a holding pattern on the 52 Bowman set as all that I have left is the Mantle, Mays and Musial. I do need 2 or 3 more high numbers but they should be no sweat, I just haven't looked for awhile. I'm going to try and pick up a raw Musial at the next Fort Washington show. If I can't find a nice raw one, I'll try and pick up a 5 or 6 when I'm there. Overall it's a pretty nice mix of raw and graded. Most of the stars are graded and many of the high numbers as well. I'll always rember that set as the one that got me back into collecting and the Billy Pierce will be the card I'm most fond of! Thanks again.

    How's that 63 Fleer set coming along?

    After one year at 38% - very slow but no hurry. Have picked up some of the keys like Adcuck SP, Spahn, Clemente, Wills RC and Gibson.
    Overall, I'm very happy with the set.

    Thanx for asking
