Thanks TD, big fan of that 65 Robinson and the mini Seaver. Neither is easily found with that centering.

I like the Starr rookie. My collection is about 49% baseball, 49% football, 1% basketball, and 1% hockey. I have several nice cards of Unitas and Starr but don't have either rookie card yet. Someday maybe.

Just picked these up from a friend of mine and just arrived in the mail today. I am super happy to add these to my OPC unopened collection. I have never seen a FASC "tape intact" box of OPC before he sent me these. I am currently working on a PSA 10 set of 1984, but can't see myself opening this one because of the "tape intact" designation. The "tape intact" boxes seem to be getting a little harder to find lately....
Always looking for OPC "tape intact" baseball wax boxes, and 1984 OPC baseball PSA 10's for my set. Please PM or email me if you have any available.1 -

Mick - fantastic '57 Mays and '63 Koufax. Love the eye appeal on those.

A few 1951 Ringside cards and a Christmas gift for my Mom who is addicted to collecting Wizard of Oz.

Here are a few recent pickups for my Fred McGriff PC.

First one of the month for me. Coincides nicely with his debut this season after a preseason injury sidelined him for 8 weeks. 2015 O-Pee-Chee Platinum Jack Eichel Retro Red /15 in PSA 10 Pop 1. Shiny little guy! Never had one of the refractor style cards in hand before, if that is what this one is. They're kind of cool!

Now that we do not need photo bucket - I can post cards and participate. First time ever using my scanner to try to capture an image. Did not come out as well as many of you with the nice Epson. Very excited to get this card - really think it is strong for the grade. Crossing fingers that this works.

It worked sort of - how do I get picture to show up instead of having to click on the card to see it? Thanks for the help.

Try scanning it in and saving it as a .jpg instead of a .pdf.

Nicely centered Willie for my mid grade 54 set.

Thanks Lotsos will give it a try this weekend.

Brick,
Nice pickup. Your post reminded me of a question I've had for a while. Is there a generally agreed upon division in the grading scale that sorts out low grade, mid grade or high grade? I kind of assumed that it would be 1-3 low, 4-6 mid 7-9 high and 10s kind of in a league of their own. Silly question and not really important because beauty is in the eye of the beholder and some 2s (like yours) present better than OC 7s but it is a question I've had.
Thanks,
KevinEdit for grammar, spelling and such. I probably still missed a bunch.

Love the '54 Mays (and that whole set). Nice bright yellow border on your card.
0 -
LOTSOS. I think you are right on the money with your grading divisions. I call it my mid grade set because most of my cards are between PSA 4-6 with a few lesser and a few a bit nicer.

Xmas a few days early! Many thanks to Invest In Baseball for tracking down a super hard card in the exact shape specified.

DM23HOF,
Wow what a "grand slam" of a pickup. Great looking for the grade and centered. Congrats on landing one of the all-time greats.0 -
-
Love that Cobb.
0 -
DM23HOF, I have always loved the 48 leaf Musial. I will some day add one of those to my collection. A very nice looking 2.5 for sure.
James, nice score on the stand-ups. Don't own any but always thought they were pretty cool looking.
I was happy to add a couple of mid-grade HOF's this month.
2 -
Very nice Cobb! I dont collect BB at all but that image even I could recognize.
Adding 4 to the collection today. One thing I focus on is Jack Eichel Rookie cards. He is the only modern player I really chase and this will be strictly limited to his Rookie year.

Let's see if second time is a charm. Think it worked this time - scanner is not the best so is a bit blurry but excited to add this to my collection. Love the old trophy cards JBrules really like that Bench.

-
brad31, Thanks for the Bench comments. That is a strong looking 64 PSA 7 Rose. Very nice pickup as it has great eye-appeal for a 7.

STAY HEALTHY!

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.0 -
Amazing Aaron! And those 52s are all strong for the grade. Beautiful cards.

Happy Holidays to all!!
Go Dodgers!0 -

That Aaron is one tremendous card. I met Vinegar Bend Mizell at a show in Pittsburgh about a dozen years ago. He seemed to be a kind gentleman. I'm not presently working on 58s but I just wanted this card.

Some great cards in this thread. Keep them coming.
I just added another catch to my Ringside set - POP 5 Sugar Ray Robinson PSA 9. Been looking at this card for almost two years. Dealer finally came down to what I was willing to spend. Can't wait! The last card that will put a dent in my pocket will be the Marciano. Finding a centered 8 at a fair price will be a challenge.
