    Helping a friend go through her brothers cards

    Nice finds, but it would be better if the circumstances were different. Tons of nice autographs, GU, and even some nice 90s inserts. Let me know if you come across anything significant of Mickey Mantle.

    Poll: 17,943 Major Leaguers. How many could you honestly name off the top of your head?

    We had a similar topic on another forum a few years ago. Name a player, and the next poster had to name a player using the first letter of the previous player's last name. I say Derek Jeter, you could use John Smoltz or any other player that starts with a J. Next player has to start with...

    Northern Illinois - 25 points scored, 4 in the first half

    The Northern Illinois men's basketball team scored a record-low 4 points in the first half. The final score? 42-25. The team missed 29 straight shots in the 1st half. Overall, they hit 1 out of 33 threes and barely escaped history for least points scored in a game (20). Northern...

    Poll: 17,943 Major Leaguers. How many could you honestly name off the top of your head?

    Probably 101-250. Maybe more if I racked my brain. Or, I maybe I'm being modest and second-guessing my abilities.

    Who do you PC?

    I have three player PCs, although only one is active. - Mickey Mantle (active) - David Wright (somewhat) - Sammy Sosa (stagnant - except for the occasional GU card)

    Back to Back in 9 Pocket Pages??

    I did this as a kid. For lower-value cards you don't care as much about it isn't a bad idea. However, it could lead to condition issues later. As a result of my earlier practices, some of my star base/inserts didn't survive so well, while others came out of fine. Now, with my PC...

    My Cecil Shorts III rolling acquisition thread

    I'm surprised by how well he did this year. I got this earlier in a random trade:

    Most $$$ spent on 1 purchase for your PC

    Memorabilia wise, probably around $150-175 (gift, not a purchase - either for my early Griffey or Ripken ball from my mother). Card-wise, $75 (1958 Mantle/Aaron PSA 4 last week).

    Couple Mark Brunell additions

    Nice pickups! I never dealt with jaderock as a buyer/seller, only as a fellow collector. He has one heck of a Brunell collection.

    My Mickey Mantle collection

    Krom, Just checked and I have those two. Thanks for the offer! Greg - thanks for the heads-up! I saw that set on Dave and Adam's earlier and thought about getting it; guess I better see if they still have it in stock. Mamunrud - I don't have anything that high-end (except for Mantle) to...

    My Mickey Mantle collection

    It wasn't that I don't collect it - just that most of it is out of my range. But, in the past year since making this topic I've been able to pick up a few affordable pieces.

    My Mickey Mantle collection

    I never knew my dad (he passed away from lung cancer when I was six months old), but my mother told me quite a bit about his collection. He once owned a '52 Mantle, but it burned up in a house fire. That's a big part of my interest (as well as hers) with Mantle.

    That would be great.

    My Mickey Mantle collection

    I think I saw your old topic yesterday. I would love the '52 case hit reprint, but I think it books around $150. Would you be looking to get rid of yours? thejackaryman8 - I won't be able to check back until tomorrow so there's no rush. Thanks for looking!

    My Mickey Mantle collection

    Thanks Nice but I have one of those from a similar set. Those are actually not jerseys but pieces of clothing from his estate.

    Bob Gibson Collection

    Nice - I love Gibson's autograph. I have an ungraded 75 Topps; it's the only noteworthy Gibson in my collection except for a 1994 Nabisco autograph.
