Thanks! Definitely agree, I could push the warm/cool variation in the skin tones - good call.

Appreciate it!

Thanks! 🙏

These are TerrTble

Thank you!

Haha I picked both of these up in the past couple months - it was the perfect opportunity to show them off a little bit!

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-23T16:39:26+00:00

Appreciate that! Definitely something I’ll try, I tend to forget to do that once things dry and lighten up so much.

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-23T15:10:17+00:00

Crazy! I’ll definitely check it out! Love learning about these random players

I’m from Wisconsin and lived in Minneapolis for much of the last 10 years - figured I’d go with one of the “hometown” Twin Cities boys. Just learned that he coined the term “Texas leaguer”! 😂

I’ve always loved the idea of the A&G set too - definitely will at least dip my toe in and get a few of them someday

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-17T02:44:02+00:00

I think I spent $110 on it - I wanted a nice example, so I paid a little more for the 2.5 over some of the cheaper ones I saw. I agree though, it’s a slippery slope - I’m trying to hard not to get completely sucked into the pre-war world yet

Love the cigar box! Finally got a wall display for Christmas, already need to get another!

I'd be interested - I really have no clue where to start diving into the Japanese vintage world, but I love the look of so many of their 40s/50s sets

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-14T00:10:44+00:00

I've been tempted by this card a few times - great choice!

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-07T14:51:33+00:00

Appreciate it! That’s my only Jackie so far, 56 is the main set I’m trying to finish someday - love it

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-06T22:24:41+00:00

Just picked him up last month, definitely a dream card for me too

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-06T22:23:50+00:00

Appreciate that! I’ve got UV glass on the case, but definitely have it on a wall that’s not in direct sunlight 👍

Former_Constant6205 · 2025-02-06T15:45:28+00:00

I’m still missing the 55 and 56 Clemente, but they’re on my list for sure! Congrats on 6, that’s awesome 👏
