Wonderful additions. The Irvin is my favorite but they are all great. All you can do is a few cards at a time. Good luck on completing the set!!

Awesome additions to the set Mike! Love all 3 but I think the Monte Irving is my favorite!

Solid presentation, Mike. Very nice cards. The Monte Irvin action shot is from a photo from the 1954 WS when he was with the Giants. I couldn't track down the Ashburn photo, but I'll keep trying. Richie is one of my favorite players to collect. Enjoyed seeing your new pickups!

LOVE that Minnie Minoso leadoff, Mike! Then followed up by Monte Irvin??? 🤯 Huge progress made on the set build with this trio, congrats my friend! 👊😃

Thanks buddy! Slowly but surely right! Hoping I can find some more deals on some hall of famers at the national, thanks for watching!

Such a beautiful design. I think Minnie Minoso is sliding into "Scooter" Phil Rizzuto. Ashburn is one of my favorite players given that his family farm and ours aren't far apart. A local legend for us. Keep plugging away on this set.

Hey buddy! Thanks. I think you are correct. I panicked when it came up lol. That’s cool you have somewhat of a tie to ash burn. Slowly but surely we will get there. Appreciate you watching !

Nice pickups, Minoso sliding into 2nd, Irvin for a fly ball n Ashburn into 3rd!! All sweet. Tall order to build the set. Take care.

Great additions Mike! Commons can boost the total percentage easier, but anytime you can add any of the HOF or bigger cards it makes the total build a little easier. Love the Ashburn

Great pickups. That Minoso is one of my favorites. The shortstop in it is Phil Rizzuto not Reese but Reese does appear on Eddie Mathew’s card.

Hi Mike, congrats on the three pickups. You are making good progress and 50% seems reasonable. There is not a bad looking card in this set which is why it stands out. What is your favorite card you’ve added so far? Great Minoso. I think the player on the card is Rizzuto. Ashburn, Kell Fox and Kuenn were four of the great contact hitters of the era that were not likely going to beat you with a home run. There is not enough of those types in the game today. Happy Father’s Day!
@scootscollectibles2 ай бұрын
Thanks Terry! I would agree with you. I think I have two favorite as of now. One, the Minoso I just picked up and the Mayo Smith. The Mayo smith just makes me laugh every time I look at it! I think the closest thing to a consistent contact hitter now is Arraez. He’s such a solid hitter, we shall see if it sticks. Happy Father’s Day to you as well!

Mike, my all time favorite set. I just decided to do the HOF run since I have four anyway. Lol, that makes sense right? Nice hits for you, love the action shot on the Minoso. Looking forward to meeting you at the National.

Andy! Thank you sir. Few here and there adds up I guess. There are so many great ones but I really like the Jackie Robinson just his smile and background picture is just perfect. Appreciate you watching. Hope you guys won that baseball game!
