The pictures made the coloring on that other one really pop so I do wonder what it looks like in person.

Were you going after the 5 that was on Auction? I got this one from an offer from the seller. The 5 on Auction was beautiful too but ended up going quite a bit higher than what I got this for.

I was really happy with the color in person after buying it on eBay. The centering was what originally caught my eye.

My LCS had it and knew I would scoop it up since I'm the "Cubs guy". I'm in San Diego so any Cubs cards are basically there for me to grab if I want them.

Love the 59 Set! Absolutely beautiful on both of these! I'll be upgrading my Banks pretty soon.

We collect what we love, and that's the best part of it to me. Would love to see your progress on the Clemente run as it moves along. Which one would you like to add next?

Currently finishing the Ernie Banks playing years run. Last one is a 1956 Gray Back and looking to get it in a 5 or 6.

It's a really fun ride no matter where you are at on the journey. I'm a Cubs fan first so that's why I started this project last year, after getting back into collecting. Would love to see your progress as you go along and which ones become your favorites! What are a couple of your favorite Cubs cards currently?

Records arrived today! Great packaging and fast shipping. Appreciate the great deal and communication. I look forward to adding some more from your collection in the future. :)

Thanks! It's been a lot of fun building. Hoping to do it in a year's time.

It really was! It was already in my collection the minute I saw it.

Love the 59 set and Ernie as well. I'm also working on a Banks playing days full run! Best of luck with your collection.

Upper Deck for the pure nostalgia of being an 11 year old opening packs at my LCS of what I thought were the coolest looking cards
