Hey guys, been a while since I've posted in here but am starting to get back into building my vintage PC....my cousin got me an awesome gift for Christmas, my first T205 and it's of one of my favorite old timers, Mr. Bill Carrigan. :) I've been wanting this card for quite some time, just never got around to buying it. My 3rd card of Carrigan:

Love the baseball diamond border with the old equipment and bats on it, very cool card. It goes awesome with my T202:

:D


Quick question for you guys...I'm probably going to work on transferring the scans of my PC over to a new website (Photobucket is absolute garbage nowadays) over the next few months, which is the best to use? I want one that is simple to use and allows me to edit my photos. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I'm hoping to finish up some sets I've been working on so I'll keep you guys posted if I get anything new in.




Waited until it came in from Heritage's recent internet auction, kind of superstitious when it comes to posting big things before they arrive.

Here he is in all his glory. A period autograph, to boot.


Damn Brian....the ole' auto'd vintage bug bit ya pretty hard, huh? :) Absolutely love that one, all of the Play Ball sets look incredible autographed. Keep it up bud, always love to see your updates.



Arrived yesterday:

1967 Red Sox Team PSA 7 for my 1967 set

There we go, Danny! Now if we can only get rid of those darn Yankee cards out of your collection.... ;) GL on the set

(Although you might win this one, as the Smokey Joe Wood from my team set is $$$$$$ :( )

Definitely my last big pickup for 2016. Will start my 2017 Mail right. Couldn't pass up the nice vintage signature. IMG_1057.PNG

I have spend the last couple years working on a 1952 Topps signed set and currently most of my funds have gone towards working on Orioles signed team sets from 1954-1970

Nice, good luck on those. I think Ellis Kinder is my only 52' signed Topps.


Any super rare Oriole signed cards from that period?

Howie Fox on a 1954 Topps is the rarest, he was stabbed to death in 1955. I have seen 1 and know where another is but the owner wants $2500. Others are Lou Jackson, Vern Stephens, Ed Waitkus, Dick Brown. Who I have about half of their cards. Still when you are looking for Multiple Bob Niemans, Dave McNallys, Charlie Laus the hunt is tough.

Kinder is a nice 52 to have. I have one too that I didn't pay much for but the last Kinder sold for almost $800.
