    Glad to have picked up this Clemente rookie for a solid price. Last heavy hitting rookie card I needed for the 55 topps set as I am slowly chipping away at.

    Beautiful pick up.

    This guy is hot right now.

    Garcia certainly deserves some hobby love. He already has as many career regular season walk-off homeruns as Trouty, and with his walkoff homerun in Game 1, Garcia already has more career postseason walk-off homeruns than Trouty ever will have.

    Great card!

    Even Trouty agrees!

    Nice 57 Willard Schmidt. Card looks beyond pack fresh and 3-D.

    Thank you. Was super happy about it. Spent a couple of hours scanning everything at the floor of a show and it was in the last row I hit. Then the light bulb went off. This is the one! This card and I are supposed to be together. 😄

    Yes, the Winners cards were a sendin reward from a scratch off card in packs. You could see the correct scratch off bubbles if you held the card up to a light, so the winners cards aren’t rare or important really. Golds were in packs and factory sets and have a much smaller print run (but still a ton).

    As a matter of fact they added the "Winner *" label so as not to overwhelm the supply of regular gold cards...as a kinda sort of work around to the "cheat cards".

    The coating was not thick enough. One could see through the coating with a bright light/flashlight to see the right answers. Some enterprising individuals even used a lighted microscope. Some early scratch off lottery tickets in some states had the same problem. The tickets now are at least double coated.

    Easy, Tiger. Nobody has posted any November pickups in this thread. Just continuing a conversation.
