Very cool Charlie. I just didn't want to come off as rude by asking that question. I think it's very cool that you're tracking down his cards. Since he's a good signed, I may have to TTM him for my autographed baseball collection.

I'll PM you his address Joe. He signed a ball for my wife's cousin last year.
Has a nice sig too IMO.

very cool charlie i didnt know your grandfather played pro ball. Whats his name and what cards does he have?

Here you go Ken Dave Nicholson Collection
As far as I know, the only things I don't have are the 66 Topps High #, the 64 Venezuelan,
the Topps Tattoo (which I'm bidding on now), and an oddball 91 Orioles stadium issue.

Josh - That's very cool about your great g'pa. I didn't know you could sponsor pages like that.

Dave - Thanks man. His RC is the 1961 Topps.

Thanks Charlie! I'll definitely have to get a baseball out to him.

Ken- A Smart Car would definitely be the way to go. Good luck with that. :lol: Getting me in a Smart Car would be the equivalent of trying to squeeze a whale into a sardine can.

If i can remember ill pick you up a 66 Topps at the National.

If you would like to, that would be awesome. The only reason I
don't have one yet, is bc I refuse to overpay for it. Show dealers
usually have them priced at damn near High BV ::facepalm:: :lol:

 

[MaineMule]

Charlie nice cards.

He already said - bitness :lol:
He's a big boy like us. He's prolly gotta stop off at Skyline.

Its a high number thats why its a little pricey. Ill try to get you like a VG/EX. That shouldnt be too expensive. Those high numbers are pretty much the only thing keeping me from completing my 60 Topps set. Im expecting to pay out the butt for them next week so i can finish it. My set is almost completely NM so its been slow going.

Nice! Hope you can finish it.

That's why I just got the 62. It's a little rough, but it only cost me $6 dlvd.
I hope to someday have a little more disposable income, and try to redo my
collection of him all PSA 7 or 8. I also have 2nd and 3rd copies of all his $1
cards, which I plan to have him sign at some point.

 

[muskiesfan]

I'll tell you Charlie, Skyline Chili is one of the reasons I can't wait to move back up north. :lol: There are other things too like White Castle, Big Boy, Gold Star Chili, Penn Station, and steak hoagies. They don't have steak hoagies here. Can you believe that?

 

[wideright]

That's an awesome goal, Charlie. Would love to see it once you get them all signed.

GL finishing your set, Ken! Hope the show goes well.

Joe- the Human Bowling Ball :lol: What a great legacy! I have zero claim to fame in my family that I know of.

 

[muskiesfan]

Great nickname huh Dave? :lol: Charlie was pretty cool. I got to meet and hang out with him many, many times. He and my grandfather used to run around Natchitoches a lot when they were younger. They had some stories. :lol:

 

[cgilmo]

Have fun in Cincy Chris. What do you have going on there?

I have a buisness associate in cincy. I am going to pay him a visit and check out a few things he wants me to check out.


You can bet skyline is in my plans.

What are you talkin about?

:lol:

 

[MojoDan]

Seeing that picture from Ken I now know why I was denied the opportunity to ride with them. I would be gasping for air... :lol:

That's cool. Have a good time. I wasn't trying to pry or anything, I was thinking along the same lines as Charlie that you were going to do a little grubbing. :lol:

 

[muskiesfan]

If everything Ken says about his size is true and Brian isn't a small fellow, I bet the three of us would destroy the suspension on a car. Hell, the three of us together probably weigh more than a Smart Car. :lol:
