January 2021 pickups thread.

Didn't see one started yet. Picked up a couple rack packs, have been
working on a 1981 rack pack set with HOF's showing for a long time.
They are getting more expensive, I'm kind of picky the HOF'er has to be centered
at least fairly decent.
Love the Stargell and McRae, two of my favorite Pirates and Royals players.

    Dan, love the idea of framing the uncut sheets. Next time, though, I think you should invest in something more....um....ornamental. Like this, perhaps. (You're welcome 😊)

    Started the new year with my first Mahomes. I just became a Chiefs fan. This is what happens when Jets decided to win a game.

    hadnt looked at the actual card in over a year, but i gotta say. the team colored variation blending w. the jersey really does make that card pop and very visually appealing. might have to start picking some more of those up myself.

    Always loved Ryan’s Angels cap on that ‘72.

    Never enjoy saying it but that’s a really nice 58 Richie Ashburn.

    That's a monster! Nice pick. Keeping it sealed I am guessing?

    Wow does Edgar look young on this rookie card!

    5x all star, 2x World Series champ, World Series MVP, 3x silver slugger, 2x gold glove

    Named the 2010 World Series MVP after hitting game-winning home runs in Games 2 and 5 of the series. He is the fourth player to have multiple World Series-winning hits, along with Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio, and Lou Gehrig. Nice company!


    Great card. Do you think an eventual HOF induction may be in the cards for Edgar?

    Thanks! I doubt he gets into the HOF, I’d put him in the hall of great.

    I agree...beautiful '68 Mantle! I am kind of new at PSA submissions...What grade do you think it will get?

    A Jim Brown rc came up for sale/trade on another site I frequent and I was able to get it. I've kind of wanted one to pair with my '58 Topps CFL Cookie Gilchrist. Though Brown had the far superior career, if you ask players of the day, you might get a toss up as to who was the better football player. I'd like to get it signed. Maybe if we have a National this year.

    I love the CFL Cookie. I have never seen it before. Thanks for posting

    Hoping for an 8. I think it's centered well enough. However, they are always tough on stars. Your thoughts?

    7 at best. Corner touches on lower corners. Upload a back scan and that’ll help- the wood grain borders make it hard to assess.

    Very difficult Front Row Promo! You will search for years and be lucky to find one. Of course PSA won't grade these because they are so rare they are not listed anywhere?

    Nice card. I like the caricature on the back. I don't even remember Front Row being involved in hockey.

    Thanks, Dan!

    Between two different subs, I will be taking the population from 13 to 15.

    There’s something wrong with me...
