Donato, Although nothing wrong with 72's i'd have to go with 73's. I love the color borders although it would be nice if the colors matched the team colors. Bright red on the Plager is just hideous. Forgive the spam but i put most of those hockey cards on Ebay tonite. I kept the Extra Plager 9 i got and a few others.

All the discs turn like that. If you use your wrist and bang it against the side of the holder a few times - it will come back to the right place. All my Schmidt discs do this. They stay in a cabinet - and, months later, every single one is upside-down again.
I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.
well, this isn't much compared to a lot of the cards that are posted here - but I was really pleased when this arrived today. Bought it raw off of Ebay - the lower right corner is touched and a slight tilt, but I'm thinking a good shot at a 7. Now I'm only about 3450 Ryan cards behind Donato...
Paid $60 + grading. Recently sold it to a hard-core collector for $2,000. Borders is a ridiculously-hard card to find, probably the toughest card in the set!

Only two more weeks before I post my 1 of 1 cut Mickey Mantle signature from Topps Heritage on here!!!!!
Okay, maybe not.
Nothing new for me to post as I'm only buying Heritage and my All Americans, sort of saving myself like a teenage virgin on prom night.
Enjoying all your posts though, great cards!!! That's a great T206 Mark. Mucky, that Ryan looks every bit of a seven from your scan, good luck with the grade.
About a week ago there was a post about misspelled auctions on Ebay. So I found this Mickey Mantal and got it pretty cheap. I think it's a cool photo/card. I believe it's a Jays Publishing card from 61/62.
Stingray, I see someone on the Vintage Sportscard Trading board is selling 160 Score Football cards. If you want the many, there is your chance. The price is very reasonable too, below the $5 grading cost.
thank you. Im glad i was old enough to see Dorsett play. I'll never forget watching that Monday night game against Minn. when he had that 99 yd TD on my little black and white T.V in my bedroom .

Yeah, I remember that play! Was that exciting football or what!! That was a THRILL!!

Dave, I remember that play well. Me being a Cowboy fan, my dad always rooted for the other teams playing the Cowboys. Not to be mean to me ,just for fun. Anyway we were both watching that game in his bedrom and when Tony ripped off that run, he was actually rooting for him to score. I always remembered that and knew my dad was a big softy at heart
<< <i>Matt, Nice Emmitt auto. It looks great in that holder. Pro Set had the greatest photography. >>
Not to argue the point, but I would say they had great action shots on their cards, but the overall photography was ok. Seemed like there were a lot of grainy photos from Pro Set?
That's a sweet Emmitt card!! And, I agree, it looks great in that holder.
How many Emmitt auto cards do you have now?
Just tremendous.

Those cards are...well 9 says it all. The Aaron looks super!

Hi Mike! I have only 6 auto cards. I also have an auto'd jersey and about five auto'd 8x10's. It a small collection but hopefully it will continue to grow. Thanks Matt
This came in the mail for me this week. His autographs are pretty tough to find let alone on a card. Plus being with the Edmonton Oilers during this 1973-74 year makes this extra special to me.

That's a great auto - here comes the dumb question...is that an OPC set?
Matt
Here comes the dumb question...I don't remember - are you doing some kind of Emmitt master set?

I guess you can say that. I wacth ebay for auto and "early year" cards of Emmitt. I do have quite a bit of ungraded material that I need to pick through to send in. I have nothing on the registry yet. I guess it could be classified as an informal master set. Like I said I will be buying more stuff. I just need to "chill' a little as you are doing with your banishment from ebay. I need to catch up on some bills and then proceed with the craziness
Another beater Southern Leaguer with a Hindu back arrived a couple of days ago:
As did a really nice E95. It's a 4MK, but the MK is just a faint, bluish X-like mark on back. I used to shun the dread Q's when I collected newer stuff, but now I don't mind an unobtrusive mark if it lets me pick up an otherwise nice card at a lower price.

I wonder if anyone has ever calculated how many 78Ts one would have to go thru to find a team card that nice!!!
In the world of 78s, that's a work of art!
Congratulations - sub or ebay?

I love that Lojoie. Nice card.
I'm organizing with great pain and found this Beckett I saved - this was just after the Mick left us.
I'm glad I saved this - I bought it at the Px to keep in perfect shape.
Anyone else save this from 1995?
mike
Hey, found a scan....see the shadow that the brim of the had made across his face....it's the same in the Beckett Photo!!!
<< <i>I bought two and saved em' both. I believe that is the same shot that was used for the 1952 Topps card?? Can anyone post a scan to compare??? >>
As did a really nice E95. It's a 4MK, but the MK is just a faint, bluish X-like mark on back. I used to shun the dread Q's when I collected newer stuff, but now I don't mind an unobtrusive mark if it lets me pick up an otherwise nice card at a lower price.
