June 2025 Arrivals

Debated if I should post this, as it was it for today and not very exciting. I do love the 61 design and the all rookie trophy cup and combining them is fantastic. Too bad Beckham was not a better player. in MLB, although he stuck around for 11 years.

Gordon AND Tim Beckham. Ah, what could’ve been.

Was it that long ago he was the hot ticket? Damn I'm getting old

Toying with the idea of type collection of cheaper modern Bowman Chrome. Michael is the nephew of Paul O'Neill. May try to eventually find a parallel version of Brett Gardner, but happy with the base refractor for now. Paid around $15 for both cards shipped.

@banjar -- Not sure what bumped it down to a 1, perhaps the surface loss on the back. Going in the PC, don't care about the grade.

@michaelstepper -- Thank you! A card I've wanted since I started collecting in the early 90s. A lot of my Yankee has lower graded copies, but for key cards I am trying to find nicer copies when possible. Next up are 1970 Munson & 1956 Mantle.

First and only Superfractor I will ever own. I just had to have one example in the collection...too bad it was a PSA10 that I overpaid for. On Fanatics Collect no less. I feel so dirty, but still glad to own this one. The scans are a little fuzzy because of the slab. It completes the 2020 TSC Chrome run.

Might as well finish the month strong!

A few random autos to wrap up June.

KiKi Vandeweghe and Norm Nixon, Ken Rosenthal and Ron Guidry.

I like the oddball Archive/Fan Favorites of non-players, but unless it is someone of great significance, I will not go crazy on the price I will pay.

Kiki! I remember seeing him play when I was a kid. Nuggets legend. As a player, that is. As a GM, it was hit or miss. But still, that's strong. Nice one. I have a Kiki auto in my collection too.
