Very cool seeing all of these ICONIC cards! Nice to hear that you make centering a priority... very hard to find in these old beauties. Lastly, THANKS for not being hesitant to say what you paid... It provides a really good gauge for collectors of vintage cards like me.
Hey thanks, but since this video is from 18 months ago the prices quoted are nowhere reflective of the current market prices for ANY of them. Recent eBay sales would be your best bet.
I met Hank Aaron once..............he came to my high school. I remember him telling the students how he had to overcome diveristy as a colored player. He recalled getting small stones thrown at him while standing on base.
Absolutely outstanding! You have a wonderful collection and it seems like we have very similar taste in our card collection. Thanks for sharing and not taking 9 months to do your countdown like me...lol.
Fantastic collection and great video. Beautiful Hank Aaron rookie, what an amazing deal. The 33 Gehrig looks like at least a 4...crazy. I've been looking at Mays rookies with my brother...so hard to find centered like that. Great top 20.
You gotta remember, those big rookie cards (1954 & 1955 ) had a big run up a few years back...it may take some time for them to start an upward surge again....they are at least maintaining th
cont'd: they are at least maintaining those high prices they gained a few years back. I believe down the road, they will again at some point, go on a price surge. Collectors are a fickle lot.
That's a hell of a collection, you got sports cards beyond my imagination. BTW you should get Roberto Clemente's Rookie Card. That'll definately look good in the collection. Overall pretty sick but very impressive !!! Thanks for sharing !!
Now this is what I was waiting for! Just destroyed everyone else’s Top 10! I’m trying to wrap it around my brain when you said, “I picked up said card for $300 bucks, good investment. However, I bought it at market value.” It’s so difficult to pull the trigger on an expensive vintage card at today’s prices. But we just need to realize they are not expensive, it’s market value. What the card values do AFTER you purchase, now that determines if it’s a good investment. Like when you said “I can’t believe I just spent $1,500 on a card.” If we can get away from that mentality, we could all make some serious gains in our card collection. Great stuff, man! CALI😎
I don’t think I’ve seen your Dan Dee Mantle before! Nice. Your top 10 is loaded with Mantles😃 I think we both need to concentrate on picking up more tobacco cards
Great cards. Thanks for showing them. As far as the 56 Mantle, that is a perfect example of why collectors should never have their cards out to show off on a wall in a display case like many collectors still do from other videos I’ve seen on UA-cam. It’s mind boggling to me. Take scans and just put them away in a box.
I keep a full wall display case, but in a room with the shades pulled down. Even if they weren't I've hung it in a location that doesn't see any direct exposure to outside light.
There have been times where I looked at picking up the Topps in an 8, but hockey doesn't really interest me and there was always other cards I wanted first.
I would of went with your top 5 all being Yankees Cards. LOL! Seriously bro, amazing collection homie, I'm a little bit jelly. Awesome stuff, your top 60 or 70 are all badass cards. As far as non Yankees, that Cobb T206 is my fav. Take care, have a good one.
You have an amazing collection. I didn’t know you had a channel until I clicked on your profile pic. Better late than never. I’m officially a fan now! 💪👍🏽 Go Yankees
$900 to $1200? You sure about that? www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=1956+topps+mantle+135+psa+6&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1
Yea I paid 250 for a 1 has one crease can only see it the light I love it cause how well centered not huge mantle collector only have the 56 69 58 allstar and the mantle Mays 62 bigger collector of Mays campanella and Clemente I actually paid less for a clemente rc then the 56 paid 100 for the clemente from a nice elderly man said he wanted to sell it to someone who would enjoy rather then flip ur num 1 card is the 52 mantle mine is a 37 opee chee joe DiMaggio paid 200 for that from the same man
Amazing collection not sure why anyone would dislike this
Basically just to be a dick.

Beautiful collection. Well done. Congrats on the ‘52 Mantle.
Your collection is a thing of beauty, that 53 Mantle has killer eye appeal

Love your collection!! Great cards, thanks for sharing!!👍
Thanks for watching!
This countdown was must-see. Can’t wait for the Honorable Mention list
rrRated rookie here....👍

You have an awesome collection my friend. Thank you for sharing it.

Yeah the Mays is tough, and if you do find it centered it oftentimes has those brutal roller marks.
That was awesome! You have an amazing collection. The series was a blast!
I actually love the floating heads on the Pete Rose rookie, no necks it’s just so funny! 63 Topps was the best set of the 60s, love the 63 Topps set
Same...love those vintage heads
Beautiful collection sir!
Those are some awesome cards you’ve got there! Congrats on quite the collection!

Love this countdown! Jealous, you picked up a lot of these at just the right time. Great collection.
I am so extremely jealous haha I’m just getting into vintage been collecting about 25 lebron psa rookies but I want myself a mantle
Great eye appeal on these cards combined with your strict centering guidelines...makes for an awesome collection and a great investment.
That's a hell of a collection, you got sports cards beyond my imagination. BTW you should get Roberto Clemente's Rookie Card. That'll definately look good in the collection. Overall pretty sick but very impressive !!! Thanks for sharing !!
The Clemente RC is on my list, but they are incredibly difficult to find centered.
@@NYYanksFan7 I think most of the old school cards that are centered are a rare commodity and are a very hard to come by.
On the 63 rose with the floating heads it reminds me of one of the talking heads album covers
You're cards have nice eye appeal and well centered for the era. Vintage will survive.
your collection is alright.. hahaha. but, seriously, the Mays and Mantle rookies are awesome
Thanks man.
Wow - thanks for sharing. Amazing cards!
Thanks for sharing! Never seen the Dan Dee potato chip card before!
Wow !!! BEAUTIFUL collection

I think what I meant by buying a card for x amount is a good investment is that I knew it was very likely to appreciate in value in short order? CALI!
I don’t think I’ve seen your Dan Dee Mantle before! Nice. Your top 10 is loaded with Mantles😃
I think we both need to concentrate on picking up more tobacco cards
Thanks. In spite of it's shit-tastic centering it is a nice card overall. Focus on tobacco cards? Good grief! I think I may have to tap out! 😂

Love the Ruth bro!
I want a Ruth card from when he played @Boston
you're missing the gretzky rookie from opc. that whats in Psa's lobby. most iconic card ever
There have been times where I looked at picking up the Topps in an 8, but hockey doesn't really interest me and there was always other cards I wanted first.

It was a difficult decision leaving the Topps Heritage Shelley Duncan rookie out of my Top 5. @_@ Thanks man.
Amazing brother! Very nice examples!
Awesome collection 👍👍👍
Wow great cards
nice collection...
Thanks for sharing, those are all aspirational cards. Thanks for including the ROI on the cards, you've got a great retirement some day.
nice video, well done
You have an amazing card collection! What would be left on your won’t list at this point?
For sure I want to add the 34G Gehrig #61 and T206 Cobb red portrait but don't hold your breath.
You have an amazing collection. I didn’t know you had a channel until I clicked on your profile pic. Better late than never. I’m officially a fan now! 💪👍🏽 Go Yankees
Nice collection
awesome collection!
Amazing Collection 🙌🏻
How much did u pay for the Jordan see I wish i had bigger budget but i have to settle for what i can afford but i buy the card not the grade
Do you display your collection or just store them away safely?
Mostly stored away with the exception of the lone display case seen in my room tour video.
i recognize this counter. I have bought a lot of your cards on ebay. cheers
I have never sold a single card on eBay.
Curious why you don’t use Beckett?
Hobby credibility when it comes to vintage. I also don't like their slabs.
Some great eye candy.
Fantastic cards!. Grrreat video & content . I thank thee for sharing all...
Go#DetroitTigers gooo...
Awesome!!!,
Hey buddy love your stuff. But what do u mean by buying the card and not the grade?
My 51B Mantle is a perfect example. It's a PSA 1.5 that looks much better than some PSA 2s thru 5s.
Respect, Brother!
How is that a Michael Jordan rookie card with two previous years on the back?
Do you a written list you could publish?
No, but you can just watch the 3 videos and write them down yourself. Why would you want such a list anyway?
Y do the cards have numbers on the top on the back tho?
Is this a serious question?
NYYanksFan7 yes
NYYanksFan7 like on the left side on the top
The 56 mantle now a 6 goes for between 900 to 1200 there pricey
$900 to $1200? You sure about that? www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=1956+topps+mantle+135+psa+6&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1
Yea they go 1700-2500
Yea I paid 250 for a 1 has one crease can only see it the light I love it cause how well centered not huge mantle collector only have the 56 69 58 allstar and the mantle Mays 62 bigger collector of Mays campanella and Clemente I actually paid less for a clemente rc then the 56 paid 100 for the clemente from a nice elderly man said he wanted to sell it to someone who would enjoy rather then flip ur num 1 card is the 52 mantle mine is a 37 opee chee joe DiMaggio paid 200 for that from the same man

WoW! What a great collection...Do u have an eBay account? 🤔
Why are you asking?
NYYanksFan7 .. You have quality cards, that’s why 😊
Holy cow batman!

*In my Joe Dirt voice* - DAAAAAAANG!
"...Well I'm sure it did, but it ain't no meteor. It's a big ol' frozen chunk of shit!"
Nice collection you have there...

Ill give you $3.50 for the Babe Ruths
This has NOT aged well… lol 😝
It's definitely a different world now, to say the least!
Around 4min he said that he got sniped lol... Well a 51 Mantle it wasnt me lol...but i am a sniper!
