My first foray into post-war. I have the start of a type/Hof PC that I've been meaning to expand into post-war.

Too many Yankee cards recently.....blech

Here's a couple new additions to my auto'ed vintage PC....used my ebay bucks on these 2 which paid for all of the Pesky and some of the Kaline.

^Needed an auto'ed Pesky card for the PC and this is from a set I don't have a card from. Looks really good auto'ed, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to buy a regular [no sig] card from that set. I met Pesky at a card showing several years back and he was probably the nicest guy I've ever met. Great ballplayer and even better person, god rest his soul.

^This was an impulse buy as I don't usually stray far away from my Red Sox buying ways but saw this card from the same seller and HAD to have it. Beautiful card of Kaline (I'm a sucker for red backgrounds) and the bold blue signature ties in really nice. Card itself is in great shape, borderline 60/5, and solid centering to boot. Really like this one of a Tiger great. (If I didn't collect Red Sox I'd probably be a collector of Detroit Tigers)



Thanks for looking guys,
-Scott

LOVE THE PESKY!! That card is semi hard to find even without the auto, great find.

Definitely a neat set....they look fantastic signed How could I pass that card up for only $25?! (Well technically free with my ebay bucks)

 

[bstanwood]

That's a no brainer, I've only seen a couple of them and they were both selling for more than that, I don't look that often though.

That Pesky is amazing, signed vintage continues to amaze great pickup Scotty!

Thanks guys! I do love my signed vintage

Probably will slow down on buying for the time being, but will still keep my eyes peeled for anything I need for my PC.
