May-June 2017
Another special few months getting a few cards I never thought I would get. Sam Crawford was one of THE premier power hitters right before Babe Ruth. I am blessed and honored to have been able to trade for this with my good friend Paul. I have been looking for years for a decently priced copy and wasn't able to find one, until a trade offer came up. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
A very underrated card that can be forgotten from the set to collect. Having died in 1948, Pennock is one of THE most sought after signed cards of the 1933 Goudey set. I have only seen a few copies and far less copies of him than Ruth or Gehrig.
Yeah, where do I begin after showing off Wahoo LOL. How about with a Goose? A very, very difficult signed 1933 Goudey of Goose Goslin happened to fall in my lap through a lot I did not expect to win. Along with the Goose was a fella named Dazzy Vance who wanted to tag along in a separate lot. That's not all, they just so happened to be with a few other HoF signed Goudey upgrades I have been looking for: Ted Lyons, Red Ruffing, Bill Terry, Bill Dickey, Waite Hoyte, Earle Combs, Freddie Lindstrom, , Charles Gehringer, Sam Rice and Earl Averill. Phew! What a month and especially of upgrades! The dupes will be listed shortly!
To cap off of June, I was able to pickup a very nice example of a 1961 Topps signed rookie of Juan Marichal.
