……In my HOF Rookie collection!!!

What do you think? I apologize for the picture, I haven't received it in the mail yet and I couldn't wait to share.

Maybe Jolting Joe has left and gone away ... but that Robinson is a keeper! Very nice card. Congrats.

Love these type of threads where collectors get excited about new purchases and enjoy sharing them. Great freakin card. That's my favorite Jackie besides his 56 issue.

Found it on EBay.

That's a beauty

Fantastic pickup, Congrats!

Really nice! Once you get it, maybe you can update the thread with a nice scan?

Oustanding!! I have just started a J.R. collection, but can't quite afford that price tag yet. Did you go back and forth a little or did he accept your first offer?

pdub1819 · June 12, 2014 3:41AM

He took my second offer. I'm pretty sure he just purchased it and flipped it quickly. ( and probably made a good profit)

You are correct, he bought it for $700. a few weeks before you bought it for $1100. Still a great deal IMO.

I thought the same thing! Someone sold it as a BIN and he must have jumped on it.

NICE!

old flip + nice centering = could be 5.5

Yes, sir.

pdub1819 · June 14, 2014 2:45AM

Here is my Jackie with the updated scan….I truly need to get a new scanner, but whenever I have the money…I end up buying another card instead.

Any thoughts on a possible bump?

ashabby · June 14, 2014 1:39PM

Very nice card.

RookieHOFers · June 15, 2014 1:22AM

Paul, it's tough to comment based on the scan, but it certainly looks nicer than a 5 from what I can. Congrats again

Matt
