Bam! Some tremendous pickups, Dan. Congrats on the Willie pickup. And the Monte Irvin is a beauty. Monte was so instrumental in Willie's early career. Thanks for showing us some real classics.
Wow, what a beautiful looking Mays card and so cool that you purchased it on the day he passed. I had never seen that Jackie Robinson card before. Love the 51 Charlie Dressen card too. Every time I see that 1951 Topps Monte Irvin card I see the face of Bo Jackson. I think they look similar like the image on Bo’s 1986 Topps Update card. Thanks for sharing Dan even though you have hobby burnout. I am in the same boat. I have not been inspired to acquire too many cards. I hope that the National will inspire me.
Thank you Ken! It’s been tough lately with the hobby burnout; I haven’t been interested in watching videos, making videos or buying too many cards. Hopefully it’ll pass soon. I’m not going to the National this year. I just purchased my “National” card that I’ll be showing on the 4th.
Straight up FIRE, Dan! That Nays is just a gorgeous copy, a card that anyone would be proud to own in their collection. Huge congrats on that and the Lionel Carter ‘51 Irvin! Honestly these were all great though, right down to and including the ‘52 Bowman commons. Really looking forward to the July 4th reveal! 🤩
Congrats on the awesome pickups, Dan. The Mays is a beauty! A ‘51 Topps Irvin from the Lionel Carter Collection is pretty cool. You’ve been hunting the good stuff brother 👍
Thanks Hugo! It’s the direction I wanted my collection to go in. I want quality over quantity. I want cards that I truly love and turn them into investments for the future if I or my family ever needs to sell them.
Awesome pickups, Dan! Those few cards at the end of the video….WOW! Also, as a Reds fan, I can’t leave a comment without mentioning something about the Peter Edward Rose. Such a beautiful color match! Take care!
Great share and pickups. Beautiful Mays. Also, I think we all experience some hobby burnout every so often or at least I know. It’s tough to keep up at times. Glad to see you back though!
Hey Mike! Yeah I didn’t want to watch videos, make videos or pick up new cards. I’m still dealing with the burnout a little. Thanks so much for watching brother 🫡
Wow awesome pickups Dan! Such a bummer about May’s and Cepeda, but I’m really happy for you that you got that card when you did and that the seller actually sent it
