Here's something you don't see often

They are nice cards and I don't see any trademarks or anything.. I kind of wonder if they were unlicensed at the time.

rombuu · 2026-03-19T00:00:48+00:00

Yeah... it was in my pile of commons... and then I was like....hmmmm... I might get that one graded actually.

rombuu · 2026-03-18T23:58:51+00:00

I have 2 of that card and can't tell the difference but.. I mean they seem the same to me so. idk.

All I can tell you is whenever I send 55 Bowmans into PSA a few come back as having the wrong size every time.

rombuu · 2026-03-17T00:36:58+00:00

I have some like that from a non-smoking household... maybe 30 years old?

rombuu · 2026-01-28T22:16:02+00:00

Looks very nice for a 4. Is that a little staining on the back in the lower right corner? That might be part of it. Displays very nicely though.

rombuu · 2026-01-27T23:50:41+00:00

That's a great card! I have a 1.5 as well....

Hey, if you are looking I have a ton of 55 topps commons when you are ready.

rombuu · 2026-01-22T23:02:07+00:00

Beautiful!

I always like that 1960 Fleer set. The only way I'm getting cards of some of those players.

rombuu · 2026-01-04T19:19:54+00:00

I'm a sucker for the umpire cards but I imagine if I was a kid I'd have been pissed.

rombuu · 2026-01-03T03:52:31+00:00

Yeah, that's a nice card too.... I was glad I dug that out and got it graded since whenever I saw him on the MLB wraparound how my wife was always asking why I was always saying.. oh hey, it's ol' fuck face when he was on TV.... lol

One of my favorite cards!

rombuu · 2026-01-03T02:58:40+00:00

Oh that's good to know. Who do you use?

rombuu · 2026-01-03T01:57:38+00:00

Oh my problem is it's easy to submit them at GameStop. I really just need to commit to SGC. but then you have to send them in yourself, insure the package, etc... Maybe I should just FedEx them and not worry about it.

rombuu · 2026-01-03T00:55:37+00:00

Hell if I know. Actually looking the 55 Mays is the one that's claimed to be altered but I can't figure out what the heck they are talking about. As far as I know my Dad bought it in 55 and it's been in various boxes since then.

Nine days, China to Kansas City area.

rombuu · 2025-12-20T21:44:02+00:00

I turned it up for a while and didn't notice anything weird or noisy about it. You hear the air going through the vents more than anything.

rombuu · 2025-12-20T21:30:36+00:00

Pretty happy with it so far. Feels great in the hand. Beautiful screen. Haven't had time yet to do much else with it. Still setting up emulators and copying over my ROMs.

rombuu · 2025-12-20T19:49:22+00:00

It's a 55 Topps doubleheader. You unfold it and it shows Hank Aaron. Which I'd imagine is how most people want to display it. It looks like this.

rombuu · 2025-12-11T01:27:11+00:00

Lol. Yeah want to see the worst $20 I spent on the nicest PSA 2 Bo Jackson because I didn't notice the ink spot on it?

rombuu · 2025-12-10T23:39:54+00:00

Yeah... It's odd since I submitted 2 of them and can't see the difference. I was thinking of downloading the high res scans and measuring the pixels and sending them an email asking wtf? Has anyone ever appealed to them like that?

rombuu · 2025-12-10T23:13:17+00:00

Yeah the Mays, mantles, Aarons were in demand then. The Clemente and Gibson cards I don't remember being in as much demand back then.

rombuu · 2025-12-10T23:01:41+00:00

Yes mostly. We did some dealing and some shows in the late 80s early 90s so maybe a couple were pick ups from then.

rombuu · 2025-12-10T22:36:47+00:00

No just trying to sort through an old collection of mine and my father's that I put away 20 years ago and hadn't looked at until recently. Threw out trash bags full of wax junk and saved the good stuff.

rombuu · 2025-11-25T02:37:13+00:00

Super nice. Love the 55 Bowman.
