Mailday! These likely won't grade very high but I'm happy to add them to the PC.

I had a nice little mail day as well today.

I picked up something to add to my oddball/food collection, that I’ve been wanting for a while now.
I loved the Denny’s grand slams from upper deck, especially the first set in ‘91 because my friend had about half the set and I was so jealous.
I never got the chance to collect them because we never ate at Denny’s.
That all changed today as I found the whole set for $15!
I probably overpaid but I don’t care.

Apparently this person thought more highly of them than even me...

I’ve just been picking up cheap stuff from my early years and I’m having a blast doing it.

I think I have some of these somewhere.

I’m collecting on the cheap but still picking up things I enjoy.
I’m saving for a couple of bigger cards at the end of the year...hopefully a ‘59 Gibson and an early Frank Robinson or Ernie Banks.

I am working on the 56 set right now. I was also planning on starting the 62 set soon. And I kind of just buy stuff I like when I can get a good deal. I try to never overpay for cards.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Picked up a couple today...

And as if I needed something else to start collecting...

 

[jaybird_1981]

I always like Mondays because I usually have a mail day. Picked up a couple more for my 56 set.

I need some help VN! I've never been much of a baseball fan.....except for our BaseVols.
My wife's first husband passed several years ago. He left "several" shoe boxes full of baseball cards.
What publication should I buy or how should I sort these to begin to figure out if there is anything valuable in the collection???

What years are the cards from?

 

[JustFunnN'Orange]

I haven't looked at them closely but, judging by his age when he passed, 60's to 90's!!

Yeah some of the stuff from the 60s can definitely have some value. A lot of the late 80s and early 90s stuff was overproduced. Check Ebay sales on the big named cards and sell those individually and I would sell the commons in lots by set.

 

[JustFunnN'Orange]

Thanks!
Sets?..... by player, by team??

Either lots of like 1972 Topps or maybe team sets. If you list just 1970s Topps Lot and have mixed years you will not get as much as selling by set.

 

[jaybird_1981]

Condition of the cards is also very important for sale prices.

Thanks Jayb!

 

[jaybird_1981]

Thanks Jayb!

No problem.
