Sports Card Collectors!

59 Topps Frank Robinson and Ernie Banks are on my shortlist.
Someday I’ll have the 59 Bob Gibson!!
I picked these up last week. I am mainly working on the 56 set but get others when I get a chance.

I don’t worry too much about grade. Especial something like 60-70 yr old baseball card.
I like a good vintage card that was well loved once upon a time.
Like this '58 Topps Clemente I picked up at my last show in a (1.5). It really has great eye appeal it has a small crease just above his knee but overall a solid looking card. When it comes to vintage I've seen multiple cards in cases at shows with different grades and lots of times a 1-1.5 may have a better eye appeal than a 3 or 4 and sometimes even a 3 or 4 may look betterthan 5 or 6.

I bought it with a 60 Topps Kaline and 69 Topps Bench and got all 3 for 300.
Nice deal!
I looked at a ‘60 Kaline, just this week.
I passed because I have the ‘59 and there are a couple of cards I’d like to get instead, like the Banks and Frank Robinson.
 
There are a few little sets I’m working on, they are mostly worthless, but I’m having fun putting them together.
While you guys are digging through your cards, be on the lookout and hit me up if you find any of these...

Also any early Donruss Diamond Kings and Donruss puzzles.

This is what I found of the Drake’s..

Who do you like? Players/teams?
Would you be open to some trading?

I grew up a Red Sox fan with an appreciation of their rivalry with the Yankees. I’m strictly into vintage at this point. Grew up buying packs in the late 70’s, early 80’s…have lots of that still. I have a bit of everything.

Sure, I’d definitely be interested in some trading. Who do you like?

I really don’t have any vintage to trade.
I’ll get some stuff together this weekend and maybe we can work something out on the Drake’s and I’d love to see the 83 Diamond Kings and the puzzles!
Be thinking about your trade value.
