More vintage Cubs in the mail today.

Double post sorry

Nothing new, but thought I'd show off a few oldies for those who haven't seen them.

Nice cards [MENTION=2285]Junior Griffey[/MENTION] . Here is one I haven't posted I picked up last year.

Sweet! I don't have any 205's but I'm sure I will add a few at some point. I was going for the T206 set, and started off by going after the Cubs. When we found out we were having a baby, I sold off about 70 commons, but kept my Cubs/HOF'ers/tough backs for when I'm ready to go after the set again.

I was very happy Topps Archives included Jody Davis with an on-card auto and photo wearing a Cubs jersey for my Cubs auto PC. Now, they need to do the same with Ron Cey - can only find his certified autos as a Dodger.

Yes, I was thrilled to see that Jody Davis Cubs auto as well. That and the Durham are the only two cards I've picked up for my collection the last few months. We also need archives of Keith Moreland, Bob Dernier, and Scott Sanderson in Cubs uniforms.

More Vintage Cubs in today. Got the last card for my 1950 Bowman Cubs team set.

[MENTION=4618]James52411[/MENTION] - Scott Sanderson, really? I could go for a Denier and Moreland though, good calls.
[MENTION=2520]ChasHawk[/MENTION] - I don't really like the Topps Originals, and all the other Cey's are multi-player cards. I'm kind of anal about my Cubs Auto PC - has to be a pack-issued auto, in a Cubs uniform (or listed on card as a Cub), no multi-player cards. I try for All-Star level and above, with a few exceptions for notable personalities and fan favorites. My biggest wants right now are Phil Cavarretta, Gabby Hartnett, Riggs Stephenson and Ron Cey.

Scott Sanderson is better than you think. Starting pitcher for the 1984 and 1989 division champion teams. Won 164 games in his career. His tenure with the Cubs was marred with injuries, unfortunately.

Let me know if that is a good documentary.

For sure.

I guarantee a bit of it will be campy/cheesey/lovable losery, but I'm a fan of anything narrated by Gary Sinise.

Sketch card commission from the National. I think Brian Kong did a great job capturing his likeness.

 

[James52411]

Very nice, unique item there on the Grace sketch.
