Love the Icon! In fact When I saw that it made me put another Bowman in my sig-line LOL, I messed up somehow and cant figure out how to add a few more- Im thinking that the "Perkies" might need to go but the Old School Pats IS STAYING!!!

EDIT: # 500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all of you for keeping this thread going!

pure blasphemy, the perkies must stay or be improved upon, sounds like a poll is in order

perkdog · October 15, 2008 6:07AM

LOL I think your right Drew! They prolly should stay. BUT if I do decide on letting them go a poll would be in order and they could stay depending on the majority rule..

I am starting a new charity "Save the Perkies!"

Perk...wipe that thought from your mind! I think staring at your 52 large is starting to warp your mind. Get rid of the Perkies??? craziest thing I have heard in a while...

Ditto that, the Perkies cant go Paul. I mean, I love my football cards, but if it comes down to a scan of 52 large matson or the perkies in your sig line, I vote for the perkies all day long.

Speaking of 57 topps, I just got these from Mike T (no not that loser Mike T shouldabeena) at nearmint. Perfect transaction, I highly recommend checking out his store.

perkdog · October 15, 2008 11:04PM

Nice cards as usual Joe! So whats the deal? 1950 Bowman? 1957 Topps? Or the ever elusive 1988 Topps? Or all three?

<< Nice cards as usual Joe! So whats the deal? 1950 Bowman? 1957 Topps? Or the ever elusive 1988 Topps? Or all three?

LOL, all three and a "few" more Paul

I love football cards, what can i say my friend. When the competition for the 88 topps set starts to heat up, I move on to another set until things cool down a bit. Alot of the big dogs are closet 88 collectors you know. Ask Ryan, I know he's outbid me on quite a few

There are honestly just a few sets I love and have been slowly but surely collecting for years. 48 leaf, 50 bowman, 57 topps and 84 topps are my favorites. I think I only need about 15 cards to complete the 57 topps set.

perkdog · October 16, 2008 3:13AM

bsidegrve, how are these coming along? Havnt seen you around lately..

bsidegrve · October 16, 2008 4:02AM

Hello Perkdog here is the other version of the 52' Bowman

I've made em for maybe 30-40 different sets
when I get time here and there I work on them, I like to put em on the binders when I do raw sets

perkdog · October 16, 2008 6:28AM

Mark I love the newer version ( without the shadow ) Lmk if you can sell me one!

Davemri · October 16, 2008 6:50AM

Have you made a 48 leaf football?

Those are very cool!!

Those are really good. Did you do a 57 FB?

rexvos · October 20, 2008 3:17AM

added 3 more for the 1969 set today.

Down to 6 left. Of the 6 I have left I have 3 incoming, and the other 3 in grading

Here is what I got in today:

and added my 4th 9 to go along with 252 8's and 1 8.5

bsidegrve · October 20, 2008 12:37PM

Here is some of the older labels
perkdog I don't really sell em I just make em up, but u can take and print image right from pic, resize if needed..
I'm all for making any changes to any of them..

Publius · October 20, 2008 2:02PM

I dig those cards you make bside! Very cool

Here are few that arrived in the old mail box today (well actually to the office, then to my "football drawer" in my desk) but you get the point

Good job on those! Would it be possible to do the 1957 without the shadow, and put the 19 centered in the first box, and the 57 centered in the second box? Thanks!

perkdog · October 21, 2008 3:45AM

Another SP for my set!

BigDaddyBowman · October 22, 2008 12:03PM

I posted this pick-up last week with the scan from the ebay auction......wanted to repost with my own scan when card arrived...it looks SO much nicer than old scan! I think it may get a bump..if I ever submit to PSA

nearmint · October 22, 2008 12:07PM

Wow, Paul, is that a rare 1952 Bowman Xtra Large?

Ahmanfan · October 22, 2008 12:22PM

NICE '57 BERRY!! I'm jealous. Get 'er signed!

From my page a day calendar from 10/22/2008:

On this day 10/22/1950:
'The Los Angeles Rams drub the Baltimore Colts in the regular season by the same lopsided score they recorded in the preseason, 70-27, at the Coliseum in L.A. The Rams score 10 TDs in this game, 64 during the year and 466 points in a 12-game season, all league records. With two future Hall of Fame quarterbacks, Norm Van Brocklin and Bob Waterfield, two future Hall of Fame receivers in Crazy Legs Hirsch and Tom Fears, and the Bull Elephant backfield of Dick Hoerner, Tank Younger and Deacon Dan Towler, the Rams are virtually unstoppable. They'll just miss out on an NFL title, losing 30-28 on a Lou Groza field goal in the final seconds of the championship game at Cleveland, but Los Angeles will rebound in 1951 and win the crown, beating the Browns in a playoff rematch at L.A.'

I love these little highlights. Imagine having the Super Bowl played on your home field? I just thought about all of these guys on my '50 Bowman set when I first read this story. The Rams sounded like they were an absolute scoring machine, much like their '99-'00 squad, but in a much different era, obviously!

rube26105 · October 23, 2008 8:26AM

paul,is it me, or does tom johnson look like hes gonna spontaniously combust in that pic

perkdog · October 23, 2008 10:34AM

Man you guys a tuning me up on that Tom Johnson card!

Its just a nice PSA 7 SP that didnt cost me $500 thats all

Love it! Great stuff, those early 50's Rams teams were stacked with talent! If only Towler and Younger played more than 5 seasons? They would more than likely been HOF'ers themselves.

Ahmanfan · October 23, 2008 11:52AM

Here is a new one I got today (it's a small)

thanks
John

rube26105 · October 23, 2008 12:16PM

perkdog · October 24, 2008 12:46PM

Ryan those are some sweet looking SGC's! Love the Landry- nice job on that one!

Here is my measly addition...

bsidegrve · October 24, 2008 2:10PM

Bigdaddybowman......The Berry Rc and the 52,51 Bowmans are just plain sweet cards!!

djspann · October 24, 2008 2:39PM

Terrific mail day, Ryan -- those are outstanding!

Mr. Motley was a bad, bad man... in a good, good way. Great mail day indeed, BDB.

Snorto~

BigDaddyBowman · October 25, 2008 4:15AM

thanks guys...I was really pumped about the Landry. I was able to pick up all 3 for less than the SMR of just the Landry.

This came today.....

P.S. and by the way, I am NOT going to tell Perk nice Large Hipps! That would just be weird!

rube26105 · October 25, 2008 5:48AM

rube26105 · October 25, 2008 5:50AM

perkdog · October 25, 2008 6:41AM

<< ps, nice large hipps paul , i sorry couldnty resist

Im Ok with the "Large Hipps" thing

Again Ryan your driving me mad with all these nice cards your snagging, making it very tough staying the course with just my '52's!

BigDaddyBowman · October 27, 2008 1:37AM

Don't stray Perk...stay strong with the 52L!

Here's todays mail...

I have a PSA 7 available if anyone's interested..

BunchOBull · October 27, 2008 1:46AM

Vintage bowling? I thought this was a football thread. Crisp pickup.

TJMAC · October 27, 2008 7:25AM

Landry, Motley and Yary. I would say you had a pretty nice mail day!!! Great looking cards.

perkdog · October 27, 2008 8:44AM

<< Landry, Motley and Yary. I would say you had a pretty nice mail day!!! Great looking cards. >>

Please. Just another routine mail day for BigDaddy Ryan!

BigDaddyBowman · October 27, 2008 10:13AM

<< HUGE MAILDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>

None of my mail days compare to this one of Paul's!

AUPT · October 27, 2008 9:59PM

Not really "vintage," but it's my newest. Actually, I did a new version when I found a better college photo of Nitschke.

My Photobucket album

Davemri · October 28, 2008 12:15AM

Awesome card!! So Ray DID have hair at one time.......

Slingin' Sammy!!

perkdog · October 28, 2008 9:48AM

Very Nice Joe! Im curious why that card isnt included in his player set?

BigDaddyBowman · October 28, 2008 10:27AM

<< Very Nice Joe! Im curious why that card isnt included in his player set? >>

Is it because it was issued after his playing career ended???

thehallmark · October 28, 2008 12:42PM

Geeez...that Baugh card just kills me. Such a beauty.

This is such a dangerous thread for me to lurk in. financially, that is.

Love the Vintage Football!
