- I did a lot of buying in December and I kept on buying more vintage cards in January. I spent well over $2,000 on sports cards this month and I'm showing no signs of slowing down. I've already shared my recent Jackie Robinson purchase, but I have quite a few more that I'm super excited about. I go through each of my PC pickups and share how much money I spent on each.

What’s up Graig, well seeing that beautiful 1955 Jackie Robinson you picked up is going to make me get one ASAP, that’s a beautiful picture of Jackie thanks NY LOU
Thanks Lou. It's my favorite Jackie card. I've loved it for a really long time.
My favorite pick up is the Ted Williams. The Bobby Jones and the pirates cards were pretty cool too, though congrats on a great buying month Graig
Thanks so much. It was an expensive month, but a fun one.
OMG, that Teddy 50 Bowman was just out of bounds, a real beauty, congrats ! You got quite the deal on it as well.
Thanks. I was thrilled with the card and the deal.
The Jackie Robinson and the Yaz were my favorites
Thanks. Both cards are beauties and I'm so thrilled to have picked them up.
Great video Graig! I'm glad that you're showing your cards! Super fun to see how the PC is morphing. Love the Jackie and Ted! The Bresnahan and McGinnity are great looking T206's! I really like the golf cards! Thanks for sharing! I'll submit my favorite pickup of January.
Thanks Darren. Looking forward to seeing your favorite January pickup in the video!!
Awesome month, Graig! Love the Jackie and Williams...great adds to the PC!
Thanks so much. And expensive and fun month!!
Hey Graig, some great pick ups for January. Loved the Jackie Robinson and also the Ted Williams, very nice cards. I look forward to sending you one of mine. Have a great day my friend.
Thanks so much. Really appreciate it.
The Roger B. with the nice yellow hue on front coupled with the polar bear blue back struck me as the best from a purely aesthetic point of view.
Thanks. The color of the two t206 pickups were definitely what drew me to them.
Wow, you really did some damage this month, Graig. I think my favorite was the Yastrzemski rookie. It was a really good looking 4.
Thanks. I was thrilled with that Yaz. The centering and color are awesome.
Never can go wrong with a Jackie.
Totally agree.
Great month. My favorite is the Ted Williams
I wasn't even looking for one, but when I saw it, I had to have it.
Fantastic pickups Graig, that Jackie is stunning!
Loving the golf cards those are really cool and seem like a deal for some of the all time greats!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much. I'm thrilled with the Jackie. Was worth the wait.
I just sold a 1955 Jackie PSA 5 for $1,200 last week, nice pick up!
Thanks. I was really happy to get it at that price. The eye appeal is great.
Congrats on the amazing pickups. The 51 Ted Williams is my favorite of your pickups.
Thanks so much.
I love this shopping spree!! That’s 51B Teddy is ABSOLUTELY my favorite. Although those pirate cards are sneaky tough competition!!
:-) Thanks Mook
Great pickups this month! Love the Roger Bresnahan, the orange/yellow background and the blue background are super vibrant! Also liked the A&G Pirate card! Thanks for sharing and keep on rocking!
Thanks so much. Color on old cards has become increasingly important to me.
Awesome pick ups Graig, what a beautiful Jackie! Wanted to say thanks for my t206 miller I received in the mail the other day, I appreciate it!
Glad you got it. Thanks for sending me for it. Appreciate the support.
Hi Graig. Wow, what a great month of buying for you. Congrats my friend.
Expensive, but fun!!
Walter Hagen! I like the golf cards. So unique.
Thanks. I love vintage golf cards as well.
Great pickups Graig! The Bowman Ted Williams is a fantastic card.. one I hope to own as well some day! Love it!!
Thanks so much. I feel fortunate to have picked it up.
Your Jackie Robinson is a beautiful card! The color and centering looks great and seems to me to be more like a 5. I also own that and believe it’s his best looking card. I am also looking to eventually pick up Yaz’s rookie. It’s a relatively affordable card. Thanks again for sharing!
Thanks so much. Appreciate that. I've wanted both cards for a long time.
Nice January pickups. Love that Williams and Yaz RC. Like you I picked up a 55 Jackie this month, my first playing days card of his. Thanks for another great video.
Congrats on the Jackie. I absolutely LOVE that card of his!!
Beautiful cards! Great eye appeal for all. Congrats!
Thanks so much.
Congratulations on the beautiful pickups this month. Great stuff, thanks for sharing
Thanks Orlando.
SWEEEEEEET pickups Graig!!! I literally can’t pick a favorite. The Hagan and Williams are absolutely gorgeous tho. Good stuff buddy. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Thanks so much. Appreciate it, Steve.
Sweet haul! Love the Jackie, and Ted Williams. Yaz looks much nicer than a 4 (at least online).
Looks better in person, too!!
I love the 51 Williams! I am now saving for a 54 Williams #1 which I think is my favorite Teddy card. I have a big pickup coming for Feb, and would love to enter your February pickups when it comes time! ~Allon
Awesome!! I love the 54 Williams card!! I usually do my monthly pickups in the first week or so of each month. In that video, I will share the link to enter the Monthly Community Pickups submission form!! :-) Can't wait to see what you go.
Awesome pickups!! I have to admit that I looked up the n19 pirate cards after you showed off yours a while back and jumped down the rabbit hole of learning about pirates lol.
That's awesome. I love that N19 set from Allen and Ginter.
Great cards C dog, lol. The Yaz looked great. I don't collect golf but I thought those awesome as well.
I've always loved vintage golf cards, but didn't start buying them until recently.
I like the 51 Williams. The 50 & 51 bowman cards are becoming some of my favorites.
I love those two sets. And, for some reason, they're VERY affordable.
Wow, Graig, you killed it this month! There are so many awesome cards! I love them all, but the Williams and Bobby Jones cards are something else. I've never seen that Jones before, and man, is it an amazing card! Congrats.
Thanks so much. Really appreciate it. I've been selling a lot lately, and I was able to cash in on some great deals.
@MidLifeCards I'm thinking about doing a little downsizing to my nongraded collection as well. I live Frank Thomas' 1990 Topps and Score cards, but I don't need 15 of each!
Love the '51 Bowman Ted Williams. Great pickup.
Thanks so much! I'm thrilled to add it to my PC.
I love the Ted Williams, The Jackie and Yaz cards are on my want list for this year, maybe at the National.
Thanks a bunch. It was a great month.
Hi Graig,
I really enjoyed your video today! The Jackie Robinson card is so sweet for you to actually own. And the old time golf card of Gene Sarazen is a reminder of what exists beyond the major sports. And you have a wonderful Walter Hagen card. I must look into vintage golf cards.
Have a great weekend, and thank you for your excellent presentation.
Peter
Thanks Peter. I love vintage golf cards a lot.
Craig we want to see your dad’s pick ups now !!! Love ya bro
My dad does MOST of his buying at shows, which I try to show. But, he did have a big pickup this month, which I'll show in my community pickups video, soon.
Monster month! Love the mixture of golf + Jackie + Splendid Splinter
Thanks. It was a monster month on the wallet, too!!. LOL.
I was going to rave about your Ted Williams Bowman pickup...and it's a beauty for sure, but I just can't take my eyes off of that T206 McGinnity. The colors and sharpness of that card are mesmerizing.
Thanks. I agree on the Mcginnity. The deep red is incredible, and the clarity is perfect. I couldn't resist it.
Congratulations on your amazing pickups Graig!! Awesome 1955 Jackie Robinson, 1931 Bobby Jones, 1960 Yastrzemski, 1933 Saracen, T206 cards, 1927 Hagen and 1951 Ted Williams. Other than the Jackie Robinson the Ted Williams card is my favorite. What a haul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Ken. It was a massive month. February may be bleak!! LOL.
Monster month Graig! Love the Walter Hagen, awesome deal.
Thanks so much. It was expensive, but it was fun!!
Of course,,, it’s the 2 T206 cards I love
The color on those two cards was so terrific. I was thrilled to get them.
That Bres is very cool! Seems like a steal for $200
The color is really great on it. I love it.
For me I'd have to go with the Hagen, pirate and the ted williams for sure thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much. Appreciate it.
I'm seeing this video really late, but your 51 Bowman Williams has the same picture as my 50 Bowman Williams! The only difference is yours has clouds in the sky.
Yep. The 50 and 51 Doby and Snider are the same as well. There are a few where Bowman used the same portrait.
Yaz was the best taking away Jackie
Thanks. The Yaz is a beauty. I'm lucky to have it.
Great month. I love the Williams especially
Thanks Dave. I've always loved that card, but wasn't "looking" for one. When I saw that one, I had to have it. :-)
That Bowman Ted Williams is sweet! That card has been on my radar for a while now. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much. I'm thrilled to have it.
That Robinson is insane. Looks like a 9. That Yaz is impossible to get centered.
Thanks a bunch. I'm thrilled with both pickups.
What an incredible big month! The William to me was a bargain but my favorite was McGinnity T206 as I almost picked one up on REA but was outbid. Love that brilliant color background, and the story behind Ironman. My favorite backs are Polar Bears so I pick the Bresnahan second. I wonder if that Picard is related to Jean- Luc ?
Thanks. Picking up T206 cards are always my favorite ones. But that Ted and Jackie were thrills, too.
Awesome pickups Graig so fun to hear about each one 👊👊🤙🤙
Teddy for the win but second place Sports kings i love that set
Thanks D. Appreciate it.
Love the Ted Williams card, awesome!
Thanks so much. I'm thrilled to have added it.
What a spectacular haul !
An expensive month. But, not I've gotta start saving up some money again. LOL.
Love the Ted Williams card!
You bought a lot of SGC cards. I love their slabs! I talked a while with the SGC guy at the recent Atlanta Show. He only strengthened my opinion of SGC. I’m all SGC going forward. Never miss one of your posts.
SGC is doing a lot of great things right now. My opinion of them continues to be more and more positive.
I bought a old card from 1910 it was graded a 1 I believe I gave around 50 for it idk if that’s a good deal or not but I really like it
If you really like it, it sounds like a GREAT deal!!
Can you send the card link again to show our pick ups
The link is in the video description.
Very nice pickups
Much appreciated
I really like the t206 iron man mcginnity
Thanks. The color is do deep and rich. I love it.
I also agree in regard to the Walter Hagen Strip Card. Not a big fan of strip cards!
Yeah. Hand cut cards are always interesting, and I don't really like the looks of that particular Hagen strip card.
Ted Williams card is awesome 🎉
Thanks so much. I was thrilled with the pickup.
Been trying to save up money for my next T206 card , a nap lajoie with bat ,,, but getting medical bills in the mail… so been dipping into from my t206 money,,,
There's always time. Sorry to hear about the medical bills, and also love that Lajoie card!
The Google Doc still has December, in the fields!😢
Nice work, though, adding interactive content without UA-cam. I am actually surprised they allow linking, but I guess they control both products…
Same form/spreadsheet. But, the date time/stamp will be updated so I know which ones to use. :-)
Very nice pickup,,,Craig ,,the vintage cards you brought ,,, did you use money from cards you sold,,,? If you don’t mind me asking,,,
Yes. I take $100 per month and add it to my "card account"....the rest of the money is from selling other cards.
What happened to $100/mo?!?! Lol…congrats on the cards.
I had to sell a lot of stuff to afford those cards.
Ted all day!!
Thanks!!
