Excellent pickup! Those cards from 53 take on a new life in high grade! So vibrant and awesome.

thanks so much for watching & dropping a comment. Yes, I agree a quality 53 Bowman with good registration really looks nice. I am very satisfied with this card, after looking for quite awhile.

Hi Craig. Congrats on picking up a real beauty. Such a wonderful eye appealing card. Nice run of Mathew cards, some real beauties. So happy for you, getting that run down to the rookie. Looking forward to seeing you pick this up whenever the time comes. See you soon my friend.

Great Eddie Mathews run here. He has some beautiful cards in my opinion. I think his 1954 is one of my favorites but overall i think he has fantastic lookong cards. Thanks for sharing with us.

Steve, thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I agree that the 54 is one of his best cards - I really like the 1960 & 1965 as well. Again, thanks for watching.

Craig, your new '53 Bowman Mathews is quite the stunner! 🤯🤯🤯 What a centered, chip-free, and vibrant '55 Bowman Mathews! You have a really sharp Mathews run! Congrats! Down to the grail '52 Topps and perhaps a couple of upgrades! Looking forward to seeing you at the Big Show, my collecting brother! 😊👊

Amazing pick-up, Craig! To me, the Topps run from 53-56 are some of the most beautiful cards ever made. I also love all the Res Man cards! I don't own any, but I really need to add a Musial. Congrats once again, and thanks for showing your 50s run.

Gotta go 53T as my favorite. Awesome Bowman pick up, great color.

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Yes, I think the 53 T is an awesome looking card - one of my favorites and hard to find with the black bottom not chipped badly.

I'm short of the 52 on the Eddie mathews run too, including all stars, fence busters ect. It will never be in my budget. Right now the 54 topps is my favorite. Love the color top. Congrats on the pickup

The Bowman Mathews cards are really sharp, some people don't like the 55 Bowman but I like the TV cards
@CraigsCards62Ай бұрын
Hey Brian - I do like the 55 Bowmans as well, especially when they are in good shape - that wood grain border chips so easy. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, much appreciated.

That 53 Bowman is a beauty!! I also need the 52, for my HoF rookie collection, I'm saving my pennies too that one's going to be brutal.
@CraigsCards62Ай бұрын
Thanks for watching and dropping a comment. I am very pleased with the 53 Bowman addition. The 52 T Mathews will certainly be a challenge. I let one slip away a few years ago, it was in my financial abilities, and I didn't pull the trigger, and when I decided to do it, the card was gone. Still kick myself for procrastinating on that one.

Congrats on the Ed addition. Love his 53 Bowman to 55 Bowman cards. 53 being my fav of his Bowman cards. When you are ready for the 52 Topps Ed, let me know if you need any help looking as it’s among my fav all-time cards. As you said, there’s time to get it.
@CraigsCards62Ай бұрын
Thanks TJ, I appreciate the comment. I agree, I think the Mathews best cards are his Bowman cards. I am glad that I was patient enough to find the right one for me & my budget. I almost "settled" @ Strongsville for a lesser quality card - glad that I walked away.

@@CraigsCards62 - are you on Instagram? I have a picture of my 52 Topps Ed there. Have not made a KZbin video with it yet. Took me over 35 years (35. No lie) to settle on mine.
