Vintage Pick Up Thread

Very excited to add this 1962 Venezuelan to my Banks collection. The back is rough, paper loss/glue/writing, but the eye appeal on the front (no creases) is great. Haven't seen too many '62 Venezuelans show up since I started my Banks run and missed out on a couple that did. Will be sending it to PSA at some point to get it slabbed.

I feel bad for anyone seeking vintage at this time, only because of the out of control prices. I know I missed a lot of good cards, just because I figured there would be time and I never went back to buy them.

Thankful that I got what I did, when I did though!

Prices are definitely up!

I agree. Just a month or two ago I was looking through my vintage and couldn't believe the prices where most of them are at. There's no way I would have near the vintage collection that I currently have if I wouldn't have started 6-8 years ago. It's hard not to cash in on a few of them, but at the same time, I'm not into them much and would never get them back at these prices.

Got another huge Venezuelan knocked off my list. It has no creases and a clean back. This '68 easily jumps into my top 3 favorite Banks cards behind his rookie and '55 Bowman.

Very nice! Love me some autographed HOF'ers on their vintage cards! That's one regret I have when I saw a few HOFers over the years....getting them on a modern card instead of their vintage stuff.

Both banks you got are in great shape compared to other Venezuelan cards I have seen. These Venezuelan cards our on my list of wants.

That's a odd looking Culp auto.

Thank you. Venezuelans are generally in pretty rough shape, so I've been trying to go after ones with good eye appeal if nothing else.

Guess age is catching up. Tommy John's is also getting shaky.
