I've been working on a 63F set since 2004 - and have been slowly adding centered cards.
Boy - is that a slow grind! I'm at 87% and have kept a log on the set - when I first started - I wrote that I wanted cards no worse than 60/40 and then somewhere along the way - I went "center" nuts and the quest has come to a screeching halt.
So - here's the latest addition:
This one came from Probstein - very fast service!
Next - I was a Braves fan in the 1990s since I was stationed at Ft Gordon and well...when in Rome?
Kevin Millwood played with the Braves from 1997 to 2002. In 1999 - the date of the jersey - he had his best season at 18 and 7 - his career was OK at 168 and 152.
GU jerseys is a small side deal with me and only add a jersey here and there - I also like bats but haven't picked one up in years.
Thanx for viewing guys - I've got some games I picked up - will post later on.

Nice Joisey too.
I added this game I picked up - in it's original packaging.
Spin-A-Game by Hasbro - 1960s.
I know of 3 variations to the game - I have 2 - and am missing the best one - which has a silhouette of Mantle batting.
To start - I think this game is a cheap knockoff of "The Great American Game" from the 20s:
And the game: there's a faint red stamped price: 69 cents!
and here's the variation with the Mantle (?):

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
<< <i>Nice additions to you collection Mike. That Fleer is a BLAZER! >>
Thanx Doug!
Your kind words are much appreciated!
Nice pickups!!! A little variety once in a while never hurts. Not sure if the Millwood jersey would fit him now, LOL.
That 63 Fleer is really nice and worth the wait. And always love checking out your games.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

Also - Mary gave me her spare room which has here workout stuff she never uses. I'm gonna turn that into one cool man cave!

If you need help organizing the new man cave, just let me know.
Looking forward to the stadium seat. I have one in mind, but I don't want to jinx you.
