Nice. Too bad the players tended to scribble over their counterparts sometimes.

Got this one for a very good price, so had to get it for my Ryan collection.

That is a great card! What makes it a 5? It looks like about a 7 to me.

I agree, that was my thought too. I'm wondering if it would've been either a 7oc or straight 5.

Had a big one arrive today. 1960 Venezuelan Ernie PSA 2.5. No bends/creases/paper loss. My last Venny needed for Ernie. Down to just needing his '71 OPC, which is almost as rare as his Venezuelans so who knows when one will pop up at a good price and good eye appeal.

1939 Churchman's Kings of Speed Jesse Owens - I actually bought the whole set because it also includes Howard Hughes and several early motorcycle racing legends like Ed Mellors, Ernst Henne, and Ewald Kluge.

Phil was walking into a card show I was at back in the 90's. He was shaking everyone's hand. The show promoter wasn't happy.

Did you buy it graded or sent it in yourself?

Purchased it already graded.

Got ya. Was going to ask if you did grade it, when not just grade the card aswell.

Really excited about this pickup. Buck never amounted to much and flamed out after a few years, but he does hold the distinction of making the first-ever start in Fenway Park history, 4/20/12. He got shelled but they got the win against NY in extras. This is his only card. Pretty cool piece of Red Sox history

Vintage has gone up so much in the past couple of years. I was looking at prices on 1934-36 Diamond Stars, Cochrane to be specific, and they have about doubled for what I paid. Finished the set in September 2020 thank goodness!!!!
