Picked up a few Cowboys cards for my sets this month. Was fortunate to meet Flozell Adams at a rally day in Dallas the day before the Thanksgiving day game against the Redskins, so i picked up his rookie card:

Also got a reholder item back from PSA for my Randy White set:

And the last card I needed to complete my Mel Renfro basic player set run:

A nice Craig Morton rookie:

And a few other Cowboys rookies from 90's dynasty teams:

One of the foundation players for today's Dallas Cowboys team:

That Craig Morton is impressive!

Thanks! The scanner does a real nice job capturing the card. I really like those 68 cards, nice, clean design and love the Cowboy Joe logo.

prgsdw, Some nice looking Cowboy cards. Congrats.

Sweet looking McMillan card. Congrats.

That McMillan looks amazing. Had to check the flip to make sure it was not a Topps Heritage card it is so sharp.

Brick · December 23, 2016 5:44PM

Thanks. Upon close inspection there is the slightest touch to one corner. If PSA had a 9.5 I believe this card would qualify.

I just got these today. They are all for various sets that I'm working on. I need two cards to finish the 1969 All Star subset. I need two and one upgrade the the 1961 All Star set.

Here are my two latest upgrades to my Clemente collection. Finally cracked the top 20! I'm selling my 1962 PSA 6 on eBay right now, but I'm going to keep my 1965 PSA 6.5 because it's my favorite card and one day I'm going to resubmit, because it looks way better then its' grade.

I also added some new cards to my 1956 Tops Presidents Collection:

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

I really love your collecting style -- super tough card even in low grade, but your examples seem low grade only going by the label. Presents awfully nice for a "1." Congrats on that and the Musial!

Technically a November pickup, however it took the USPS over a month to deliver it, so counts for December!

USPS=Not faster than a speeding bullet!

Great additions everyone!! Here is a December Rose Rookie pickup.

UFFDAH, That Rose rookie is unreal!!

I put the Christmas bonus to good use. Biggest card I bought all year. My Frank Robinson has been lagging behind my Brooks Robinson set.

This should help!

brad31 · December 29, 2016 10:07AM

Wow on the Rose rookie. Great card you should be proud to own.

I just picked up one of these myself. Great choice!

JBrules · December 29, 2016 6:19PM

A couple of sweet looking rookies with the Rose (Card just Pops with color) and Frank Robbie. Congrats!!!

UFFDAH · December 30, 2016 7:59AM

Thanks for the comments on the Rose - much appreciated. Its the first Rose Rookie ever for me, and I definitely feel fortunate to have it.

Coins - nice unopened pickup. I love BBCE wrapped material!!
Rugby - great 57 Robinson - really like the centering front and back!!

One more end of the year add to share. A Technicolor Titan from 1975. I really like the centering front and back, colors, clarity, and minimal print defects with this copy.
