Trade post

This trade came from that vintage haul that Bo picked up.



I've scanned my favorites from the the trade, starting with these 4 common 1966 Topps cards. This is probably my favorite Topps vintage set, of course I'd feel this way it is my birth year. Yes, that makes me old, nah....




Here's a great one from 1967. HOFer, Brave, so why not.



A fist full of 68's. I'll have to upgrade that first one, but no biggie as eventually when all is said and done, I need 5 of this card. Braves team (got it), set build (got it), and 3 for the PC's.



Some 69's.



My 2nd favorite of the entire shipment. This is the first of 3 of these that I need, so this one will be placed into the Trophy Cup binder (eventually).


Another nice 69, but not my favorites......




This one is. I need not say anything else other than thank you Bo for this trade.

Have a great night and weekend!


One more thing

Just one more thing from the LCS pick up I made last week.


I'm seeing double double, how about you? This card will get you if you stare too long at it. Give it a try.


I might as well show a few more cards that didn't come from the LCS.



These purple Optic cards are gorgeous.



I grabbed the complete purple set for $10.00 on Ebay, stealllllllll! of course I broke it up for the DK's and Braves, and PC's. 




There were 2 problems though. I got 2 Fielder's and no Stanton (problem 1).



Problem 2 is that the Kershaw was bent. You can see the crease above. I contacted the seller right away (last Friday when they arrived). He said he was going to a show on Saturday and would pick them up. Fantastic. Saturday night he messaged me saying there weren't any at the show, so he bought them on Ebay and would send them when he got them. He e-mailed me yesterday letting me know he put them in the mail. Now that is good seller. Great communication and doing what it takes to make it right even on such a loss as you know he had more than $10.00 into the set. Eastpointe something or nother.

Have a great night. Posting Bo's vintage tomorrow.
