    April 2025 Pickups

    1955 Topps All-American Jim Thorpe -- Iconic card of an athlete who transcended sports. Local show pickup. Wasn't looking to buy one, but decent eye appeal for the condition couldn't pass it up. Fair centering, strong colors, with some creasing, but just around the edges. Corners don't bother me...

    1996 New York Post Signed Newspaper by the 1996 Championship Team -- I bought this to be framed for my office to commemorate a big moment for me as a Yankee fan. Looking back, 1996 win was a bigger moment that subsequent years when the Yankees were expected to win. There was a newspaper...

    March 2025 Pickups

    That is a sharp design! I haven't seen the 2025 Topps cards in person yet. The shine of the gold foil really comes through on your picture. I commend you chasing the Darvish flagship parallels, there are some nice ones this year. On a personal note, I am extremely thankful for these Golden...

    2004 Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #1499 Bernie Williams 90/5 -- Another buyback! 1990 Donruss was one of the first packs I opened as a kid. The red design, brings back so many memories, I still recall the distinct smell of the old wax packs. Due to both nostalgia and eye appeal...

    1997 Topps Rookie Cup (Jeter Archives) Auto /5 -- As a Topps base collector, I'm partial to the Rookie Cup cards. The 1971 Munson is the gold standard, this is an updated take with another Yankee captain. Horizontal design as well, but with the newer cup design. Felt it went cheap at Goldin...

    March 2025 Pickups

    I picked this up in January. Took a while to arrive with new eBay Authentication. Was sitting unopened for about a month until a week ago. I hold on to my pickups and open my card mail on long days when I need a morale boost. The "new pickup" here is realizing on close inspection there is a...

    Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

    Awesome card! Glad you still have these. Hope you're well! I sold a few dozen O'Neills about 15 years ago to help pay for big expenses. It's painful to buy them back at higher prices. Still missing a handful of ones I initially owned. If you ever decide to move any of these 1/1 please let me...

    January 2025 Arrivals

    @banjar - Thank you! @mrmopar -- Thanks, that is an awesome find if real. A few other collectors I know have found their Munsons that way, hidden autographs inside of programs or mixed into lots. Maybe worth listing on eBay for a crazy amount and using that as a way to get PSA DNA Quick Opinion...

    1975 Topps Mini Thurman Munson #20 Autograph PSA/DNA Certified -- Grail level purchase this week. On my Top 10 card list from this post many years ago, finally able to cross it off. Last year, I was disappointed after I purchased a raw Munson autograph which was deemed not to be genuine. Rather...

    2017 Topps On-Demand MLB All-Star Game Homage to '87 Rickey Henderson Autograph -- My first pick up of the year. One to commemorate the untimely passing of one of the greats. Surprisingly, Rickey doesn't have many Yankee autographs. Out of a staggering 3594 signed cards, just 249 as a Yankee...
