My father gave this to me the other nite. Now if he still has the Cassius Clay/ Muhammed Ali auto he got for me the week Ali changed his name I'll really go bonkers. I think my mom threw it out though.

Postal prize for the day for my Drysdale basic set.....

.....I'm getting closer and closer to completion on both!

mcholke · April 15, 2006 11:56AM

A761506 - I love those Bazooka cards. Great colors. Thanks for sharing.

sagard · April 15, 2006 12:34PM

ArnyVee · April 15, 2006 12:50PM

Sagard, love that Koufax! Is that a 7 or 8?

sagard · April 15, 2006 12:53PM

Both are 8s. Did the '63 Drysdale make it to you?

Edit: I just found it, hope you like it.

ArnyVee · April 15, 2006 1:00PM

Got the Drysdale, thanks!

Josh...

Those Bazooka box cards are beauties. They are nicely cut. Nice pickup.

Donato

Downtown1974 · April 16, 2006 9:11PM

Lothar, That Robinson is unbelievable!! Doesnt look like a 5 to me. Are you gonna crack and resub?

charliehustle14 · April 17, 2006 4:43AM

Woohoo! Was home for lunch today and the mailman paid a visit....Highlights of my latest sub, with some of my best pulls from Heritage last year:

This was my first sub with mostly newer cards. I was very pleased with the Griffey Black Refractor and I guess David Wright's not a bad one to have these days either.

-Todd-

MajorDanby · April 17, 2006 5:02AM

nice cards, todd...those heritage autos look great in their psa cases.

and steve....given my limited budget, ive decided to narrow my t206 goals....just HOF portraits for now.

lawnmowerman · April 17, 2006 5:21AM

Just got this back today. Its been so long since I scanned anything for this thread I almost forgot how to do it.

ToppsCo1lector · April 17, 2006 6:02AM

1992 Leaf Gold Pedro Martinez PSA 9(OC)

Just won it today, didn't want an offcenter but for the price of .99 cents I couldn't not take it.

divecchia · April 17, 2006 7:43AM

Here's the pic, not bad for an OC.

Donato

ToppsCo1lector · April 17, 2006 9:03AM

1998 Topps Finest Jason Williams Rc PSA 9

jmbkb4 · April 17, 2006 9:36AM

Thanks Mark! To all non-'93 collectors, this is a fairly tough PSA 9 card. Only about 20 exist.

jmbkb4 · April 17, 2006 9:38AM

ToppsCollector,

thanks for sharing!

HoofHearted · April 17, 2006 9:38AM

In return for a couple packs I sent to bobsbbcards, he sent me these 1972 Milton-Bradley Twins for my type collection. They'll fit in nicely!

Thanks, Bob!!

lawnmowerman · April 19, 2006 6:32AM

I got this today from Steve aka Tedw9. Thank you Steve for your generosity and the really great card. It will go well with my other Emmitt autos!

jackstraw · April 19, 2006 10:23AM

Got a couple of Griffey's from PSA today. I anybody sees a Nolan Ryan w/tab LMK.

lawnmowerman · April 19, 2006 10:24AM

John, That post card is real nice. What a cool looking photo

jackstraw · April 19, 2006 10:55AM

Matt here is the back and a couple more Highlights from my last order. Two of my favorite cards !

FYS · April 19, 2006 12:11PM

JB, that Post Card is beautifull, the front anyways. I have never seen that issue. I may have to give it a look.

Seraph · April 20, 2006 1:38AM

Arrived this month:

It seems that Ken Jr. always has nice cards. To me, its his swing that really makes them look cool

brumbach · April 20, 2006 1:12PM

I had been wanting one of these for awhile, and was happy to get one signed no less.

Lothar52 · April 20, 2006 1:22PM

TNP777 · April 20, 2006 1:49PM

This tough 2004 Heritage Mays seat arrived today. I'm fairly certain the Mays is the rarest relic Topps has thus far produced. Down to eight more relics to locate and I'll have a complete run from '01 to '06.

1966CUDA · April 20, 2006 2:09PM

Here's a few just back from SGC ( I know, they're not PSA!). Used SGC cuz I think it's a flip of the coin between them and PSA on olders cards like these. They aren't in the greatest condition...but still nice to look at. Thanks for looking-Claude

I think this one is labeled wrong..PSA lists them as 1936 Reemtsma Tobacco cards????..........

1966CUDA · April 20, 2006 2:13PM

I think PSA is correct on the Owens..it was the 1936 Olympics...just wonder if SGC didn't have enough info so just labeled it "1930's"!! ...I actually submitted another Owens from this set (different pose) to PSA and still waiting for results. I guess I'll see how they label them.

pandrews · April 20, 2006 2:24PM

nice stuff Claude, they look good in the SGC holders too..

A761506 · April 20, 2006 2:29PM

Speaking of neat stuff in SGC holders...

pandrews · April 20, 2006 2:35PM

<< Speaking of neat stuff in SGC holders...

TNP777 · April 20, 2006 2:38PM

I have always loved the black backgrounds of the SGC holders. Nice stuff, Claude!

1966CUDA · April 20, 2006 2:39PM

Josh..really cool '59 Topps sample....was that cut from a 3-card sheet???

phreakydancin · April 20, 2006 4:19PM

<< I think this one is labeled wrong..PSA lists them as 1936 Reemtsma Tobacco cards????.......... >>

Wow, that's a pretty major blunder on SGC's part. How can you authenticate a card if you can't even identify it?

RobBobGolf · April 21, 2006 10:05AM

Some examples from my April Special Non-Sports Cards

FYS · April 21, 2006 10:46AM

<< How can you authenticate a card if you can't even identify it? >>

What do the PSA clones say? 1. It is only printing/label error, I wish the quality staff would get their act together. 2. Well, PSA grades so many cards, mistakes will happen. Thank god that real errors are rarely seen. The printing & label errors do not count.

ArnyVee · April 21, 2006 10:46AM

That Jesse Owens card is absolutely beautiful to look at! Wow! Congrats.

1966CUDA · April 21, 2006 11:53AM

Yeah...and it's amazing what that guy did....WAY before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Owens kicked the crap out of the competition and Hitler's machine!!

HoofHearted · April 21, 2006 12:59PM

This '88 Leaf is a 1/1 PSA9 with none higher -- and none lower. (Graded by '314'...)

And a '90 SI for Kids for my Puckett Registry set. It's also a 1/1 in PSA8 with one higher and none lower. These pops are easily overcome, obviously...

halosfan · April 22, 2006 4:25AM

Here are a few that arrived this week. Two from eBay and some from my Feb sub.

WinPitcher · April 22, 2006 5:15AM

As always great stuff guys! I especially like the star trek cards!

Nice job!

In my mail the 9's keep coming:
