April Pick-Up Thread

[rebelpawn]

It was a great day to get the mail today!


These cards are really tough to find and are always in terrible condition. This one isn't actually too bad so I'll take it but I'm just happy to finally have landed it.


Red #5/5


Another add for the HOF GU collection

And two scrub autos from a couple of guys who briefly player for the Sox

#/25


#1/1

And to make the things even better I pulled this from one of my DK boxes yesterday!

I don't even like the guy, but for price I couldn't pass this up.

That is one of the all-time great modern sets IMO.

So where do you guys think they get the really old authentic, game-used stuff that they're cutting up and making into into cards these days? My first thought is from the HOF, but then I don't think the Hall would give or sell historic artifacts to anyone that they know would cut it up.

Mostly from Goodwill. "Authentic" ha ha!

LOL! I wouldn't be surprised. I think it's sad, though, that they're literally destroying these historical relics just to sell more cards for 1-2 years. Once a game-used Babe Ruth jersey has been cut up and separated, it can't be put back together.

Yea but thousands of Ruth fans can own a piece of Ruth.... To me that's priceless. Oh and they buy a lot of stuff from private collectors.

Couple of the nicer prospect color autos I've hit this month: just getting around to scanning...
