Drinkin' with Curt Flood! Awesome.

This new addition has been on my list forever with this centering and grade! Tough card.

mariner · February 11, 2017 11:58AM

tough card indeed and a perfect McMillan!

mariner · March 11, 2017 6:41PM

bump to keep it fresh

Robby · March 12, 2017 10:15AM

Picked this card up a while back , and by no means is it a tough card to pick up ..........very plentiful
and cheap ! I just love the Colt 45's hats and uniforms ........and this card shows both very clearly ! Too
bad Houston and MLB determined that it wasn't a good image to portray !

I believe Aspromonte had the first hit in Houston baseball history! And was also the last active former Brooklyn Dodger.

mariner · March 12, 2017 4:59PM

beautiful Aspromonte....I too really like the Colt .45's uniforms....I lived in central Texas as a kid when they became a franchise, so there is a special connection there.

psychump · March 12, 2017 11:38PM

Lotsa minty Hammerin' Hanks on eBay lately. Had to pull the trigger on this one.
Don,please post a picture of one of your beauties when you want to bump your own thread . LOL. [:# ]

GDM67 · March 13, 2017 4:59PM

Probably my favorite card in the set.

mariner · March 18, 2017 3:23PM

The Aaron is a great card in the set and that one is gorgeous! I will post some more scans in the near future.

mariner · April 25, 2017 9:10PM

I have a couple of new 1963's coming this week, so I will post them when I get them.

psychump · April 26, 2017 9:33AM

I noticed that in the Basic list. Can't wait! I was hoping though that you were tired of this set and thinking of selling some to me! :'(

mariner · April 30, 2017 7:32AM

LOL....I still really enjoy the set, but just have not spent much time on it lately.

psychump · April 30, 2017 9:33AM

Beauties! What an eye! Sam Mele is still alive at 95!

mariner · May 5, 2017 3:00PM

Thank you!

Oops

Did you lose something Bob ?

I believe Bob 's " Oops " was in reference to Sam Mele who just recently passed away !

Robby · May 8, 2017 5:15PM

Since the title of the thread is 1963 Topps ...........I thought it might be
okay to show my newest addition that arrived in the mail today

bishop · May 9, 2017 12:30PM

More than ok to post any and all 63 Topps stuff in here, Robby.

As for Bob, if you ever have the chance to tour his basement, Opps or OMG could apply to a whole lot of things

I'm a retired mailman since 2007 .................and " Oop's " always reminds me of a Lady on my Postal route
whose nickname was Oops ........................she constantly said Oops whenever she made a mistake ! Always thought that was the funniest nickname ! OMG is one of my favorite expressions and I say that every time I see Bob's extensive collection on
here !

mariner · May 27, 2017 2:04PM

Robby....I really like your 1963 Peel-Off Aspromonte. The Colt .45's were the first team I saw play in their second year.

Robby · May 27, 2017 9:13PM

Thanks Don ..............................just received this one in the mail today .........the seller
stated that he thought it was deserving of a Psa 9 ................When I held it in my hand , I have to agree ,
even though it's in a new holder ! Psa is very stingy in handing out 9's and 10's on vintage star cards !

bishop · May 28, 2017 10:20AM

mariner · May 28, 2017 11:35AM

OMG.....that Aaron Peel-Offs is amazing! That is a 9.

psychump · June 21, 2017 5:15PM

Time to add a couple of tough cards to the thread. Terribly difficult to come by. Picked up the Brewer in a private deal. Jack was eBay.

mariner · June 23, 2017 1:16PM

Brewer indeed is a tough card and yours is very nicely centered...congrats!

psychump · February 21, 2018 2:10PM

Time to refresh this thread with a couple of hard to get Mets.

mariner · February 21, 2018 7:16PM

sweet cards indeed!

SlipC · March 1, 2018 5:22PM

Guys - Really enjoying this thread.
I had picked up a few 63's here and there over the last half year with nothing in mind but their beauty. The color and images are stunning. The "thin" borders make centering a priority to acquiring a nice card.
That is an incredible Aaron base card shared above.

Always remember Dallas as being the guy that helped rebuild the Cubs in 1984 and get to the Post Season for the
first time since the 1945 World Series team ...........almost a 40 year drought ! Terrific looking card SlipC !
Robbie

mariner · March 3, 2018 11:24AM

.....and Dallas was the Manager of the 1980 World Series champion Phillies.

bishop · March 4, 2018 7:57AM

Great card Robbie

Great card Robbie

That was SlipC's card ...............wish it was mine .........its a sweet looking card !

bishop · March 4, 2018 2:45PM

Sorry SlipC, as I get older I am less observant

mariner · March 5, 2018 8:07PM

Al, we are getting old...lol

mariner · April 23, 2018 6:28PM

We can't let this thread drop off of the page.

Those look beautiful. Are they from another trip North of the border?

No, they were from a collection somewhat local. Been trying to buy the collection for 5 years. The guy finally gave in when I blew him away with a cash offer

tsalems1 · April 28, 2018 6:12PM

psychump · April 29, 2018 9:23AM

WOW! Great Rose! That Schofield goes for around 400 in an 8 but only 10 in a seven. You gonna sub them?

bishop · April 29, 2018 9:42AM

Those all look great ts , and it is always fun to give Cubs fans another what if moment.

mariner · April 29, 2018 8:06PM

sweet raw cards......fantastic!!

mariner · May 26, 2018 7:04PM

Robby · June 7, 2018 1:11PM

Harry Craft is yelling " Hey Don...……...Show me some more of your 1963 Topps Psa Baseball Cards "

Robby · June 7, 2018 1:12PM

And my other new addition to my Colt 45's collection

psychump · June 8, 2018 9:13AM

Hey Don, That is the biggest print blemish I have ever seen this side of my '63 Houk inside the circle on the Pierce. Lucky nine I say.

bishop · June 9, 2018 12:24PM

Looks like one of Bob's squashed bug variants. I think he creates his by inserting the cards under a wiper on his car wishield.

mariner · June 10, 2018 4:21PM

LOL! So Harry is calling me out Robby?

Yes, that is the squashed bug variant of Pierce.

I have always loved the look of the Rojas card.
