    collecting RAW Topps baseball cards 1952 Highs to 1972. looking for collector grade (somewhere between psa 4-7 condition). let me know what you have, I'll take it, I want to finish sets, I must have something you can use for trade.

    looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started

    I'm not an Aaron collector, but those Bazookas shown by bobsbbcards are very nice. So is the 1965 Kahn. I'm beginning to think that cards of that generation (Aaron, Mantle, Mays, etc) that are not Topps or Bowmans are, in some cases, every bit as attractive. Also, I agree that the 1955 Bowman is a beauty.

    Always looking for Mantle cards such as Stahl Meyer, 1954 Dan Dee, 1959 Bazooka, 1960 Post, 1952 Star Cal Decal, 1952 Tip Top Bread Labels, 1953-54 Briggs Meat, and other Topps, Bowman, and oddball Mantles.
