Home Buy, Sell & Trade - Cards & Memorabilia

1954-1963 Football and Baseball mainly commons- scans added and some lists!

I picked off a HUGE number of cards which I sent in for grading from the local shop as he made a substantial purchase of vintage cards. I selected what I thought were arguably the best of the best and ended up purchasing over 300 cards which were submitted to PSA earlier this week.

He still have a number of cards, mainly commons, a few stars. The colors are bright and pack fresh. Problems with what is mainly left for sale is centering, a few have maybe some light rubber band marks, and some are still pretty nice and would likely grade psa 7 range.

The 1960 Topps Baseball is mostly gone. He has a TON of 1962 Post football cards, all hand cut but most cut very well with borders in tact, I purchased the Jim Brown and am getting it graded.

There are a few 54 Bowmans, a few 55 AA's, small amount of 56 Topps, quite a few 57 topps, a few 58 and 59 and 60, then it gets a little thin. He also has some really nice 61 Fleer cards as well, centering being the main issue on most.

Baseball there are some 57's including Brooks Robinson rookie, a number of 56's (including many stars although these are a little rougher) and lower numbers of 58-59-61 and 62, there is also a fair amount of 63's most in the later series.

He has these all priced and in Ultra Pro top load sleeves. If anyone has an interst in a particular year, let me know what you are looking for and I can get back to you. There are simply too many to list here. If you are looking from cards from a particular year I suppose I could provide a list.

I posted some scans of just a few of the bigger hitter cards I purchased in another post last week which can be found here. This should give you and idea of the overall quality of the items.

other post with some of my purhcases and scans

This shop owner does not deal in graded cards so Beckett is mainly the source of pricing. I am sure if someone was interested in quantity I can see what type of deal he can work.

One card of particular interest is the lucky penny 1957 card, it is sharp corners but off centered and does have light rubber band marks, I think he has it priced at $50. due to rarity alone I almost picked this one up as well, but I had done plenty of damage already!

Send me a PM if interested in anything particular, I will see what further information I can provide. If you are someone building sets, this might be a good opportunity to pick up some nice glossy vintage material at a good price.

    Thanks for all the PM's, my goal today is to go to his shop, see if I can take the remaining cards he has back to my house, and then response to each of you individually. I may even post a few scans here.

    here are the 63's again I weeded out the ones that are way off center, the high numbers are espeically nice, very little to no chipping on colored areas, cards are glossy!

    again, starting with what he has em listed at as you gotta start somewhere. I have two board members that have already expressed interest, so once I give them first shot at these, I will edit the list and let you know what might be left.

    Here are the 1956 Topps Baseball. Main issue I see other than the corner wear is a number have some light wax staining on the back. I am only going to list cards that I think would grade at least at psa 5 or better.

    Sorry for the big list, most all of these are commons and a few semi stars and team cards. He does have a number of the star cards, so if interested send me a PM with your email and I will forward to him. Prices below is what he has them listed at currently, as he already has for a few folks, I am sure he is willing to work out a deal depending on the quantity and price you are looking to purchase

    Commons - $6 each - why not priced higher - most have was staining on reverse
