Thought I'd share a trade that I did locally today! So I took a big chunk of my 50s cards I no longer wanted to a dealer at a local flea market today and made a trade with him. I have bought and sold with him for a few years now, so he gives me good deals and works with me so that were both happy. Anyways, traded about 50+ cards for these 4 cards. Definitely helped in my attempt to downsize my collection a bit!
The 53 mantle is in poor shape, as it has a few creases, but I liked the color and centering. The 53 Robinson has no creases, it got a 3 because of a stain on the bottom border which doesnt bother me cause of how good the rest of the card looks.
Also, Im looking to sell the Pujols if anyone is interested.

    Even with the creases, that's one fine looking '53 Mick.

    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Very nice cards Evan.

    Are you planning to have the Mantles graded?

    If so, I think they'll look really nice in holders.

    Yes I plan on getting them graded. I am going to keep them both for my PC and sell the Robby and Pujols.
    Thanks for the kind words!
