I'm showing off some more...forgot about these... I collect pmg championships as many of you know. I bought a group of four last week... Three were duplicates (cliff Robinson, avery Johnson, and Strickland)


Some how I have found three of these from all around the world in my searches.








And added this beautiful John Wallace. Nice Canadian landscape in the background

Love that Wallace card! I grew up in Rochester, NY where John was born and played his HS ball. Following him led me to becoming a Cuse fan, which ultimately led to my Melo PC.

Great card. But it makes me laugh. There are no Mountains in the Toronto area. Maybe a few big hills.

A lot of huge cards here, however my favorite by far is that Cowens refractor. What a stunning card!

I don't normally venture over to the Basketball side, but I've recently sent these in and am happy with their results. These will stay with me forever.

I've had this one for awhile but I think I've only posted it in maybe a college thread and Xarzy's 9.5 thread.

From my understanding, the Mikan auto came from someone's scrapbook that they had made back in the 50s of their favorite basketball players and their auto's. I bought it un-authenticated and the way it came and then submitted it to PSA. In hindsight, I wish I had bought more players but oh well. The Mikan auto only cost me $20 + PSA fees!
