Not knowing Dickson had a card in Series 2 has cost me 2 printing plates which really sucks. One sold for 12.00 and the other for 14.00 DAMN IT! This is going to be my next big collection since I am getting to the end of my Descalso list.

Yea. I saw that this morning. I dont like paying 2.25 for shipping on cards but I am going to try to get this card. I cant believe it went like a week without one poping up. There is about 10 Dickson Blue borders up. I dont understand that lol.

Finally finished this guy up, pretty excited about it.
Yep i took them out of those hideous tribute cases, and put them in one touches.

You got a pretty good deal on the Berkman purple, I threw up a bid on it when it was listed.It ended on a weekend, and I forgot about it.Those some pretty cards.

Ya, i think i got the purple for about the same price i got the red for. Was kind of happy some people were sleeping on it haha.

Grabbed a box of Tier 1 today and pulled a Motte auto...can't complain. If I'm going to get a cheap auto it might as well be a Cardinal. Will post a scan later, it'll replace the other Motte auto I've got. If anyone is interested in a T206 Mini Auto let me know.

That's a sharp card, though I wish Topps wouldn't have made the cards so you have to turn it sideways to look at it.I bid on Motte's silver signature variation yesterday, but someone else got it.If you have a scan of the other Motte and are willing to trade I may want it.

I may snag one of the white or silvers idF the price is right. Here's the t206

I take it the specks are dust on your scanner?If you're trading I might be interested.

Decided to roll the dice on this guy.Looks like he's never going to be anything but a middle reliever.Oh well, decided to go for it anyway.

 

[SINFULONE]

Nice Boyer photo, where did you find that?Is that tape residue on the corners of the Musial Wheaties cards?

 

[KenBoyerCollector]

I picked the Boyer photo up from eBay. Collecting vintage photos is gaining popularity. There was a sweet Type I photo of Boyer jumping into Gibson's arms recently on eBay. I had a snipe but it went for around $70 -- $40 more than my snipe. There are a couple of Boyer and Musial photos that I have my eye on. The Musials have tape and tape residue. I knew they would grade low -- I just wanted them slab for the PC

I love it, great buy. Hoping he comes back strong from TJ. I think reliever is his quickest route, but he's got the tools to be a starter too.

Yeah, specks are scanner dust. I'll trade, resend me your address and I'll send it out. We'll figure something out later

Months ago this card sold raw for $150 or so, and my max bid was $125.Same card was relisted several times in a BGS 9.5/9 slab, and the BIN finally dropped to a number I felt like rolling the dice on.
