I decided to go for a Low Grade 1950's Willie Mays PSA run recently. Here's what I have received so far:

I have a 1956 Topps Willie Mays Gray Back PSA 2 incoming also.

If you have any Low Grade 1950's Willie Mays PSA cards (2,3,4) and you are willing to part with them, check out my trade threads for a possible deal.

That Hank Aaron RC is definitely a super sharp card. Way to start off Vintage in style.

I get a bit of FOMO and get pulled back in now and then, but I definitely appreciate my vintage cards more. Great start, especially the Jackie’s!

Good stuff Pacman~! I think older and vintage hockey is underrated.
That is an Orr rookie I think right?

Glad to see a tad more hockey represented in this thread.

Speaking of this thread, I guess thats about it for the 2018 version we need someone to fire up a 2019 thread so we can start posting our '19 items.

QUICK EDIT - I'LL MAKE A 2019 VERSION
(On that note, I have decided on my next acquisition.......coming soon)

My favorite pre-war pick up of 2018, the last card for my t205 set.




My favorite post-war pick up of 2018, an upgrade of my Mantle RC.

Beautiful cards. You can't go wrong with Cobb and Mantle, and especially a card for your set.

Picked this up a few nights ago and arrived today:

I have one graded but the centering on it is not as nice as this one.
