About 6 years ago, I wanted a Jackie Robinson. I couldn’t afford a rookie and I’ve always loved the 1954 Topps set so I got the nicest one that I could find focusing on eye appeal. This one looks like a 6 to me, but even if it’s graded as a 4, it looks great to me! Happy to have it in part of my permanent collection. Once day I’ll get a Leaf or a ‘52 Topps. But for now, this works!

Exceptional mail day yesterday.

Can’t do much better (well, maybe the card condition could be better…) than a 1954 Topps rookie auto of Hank Aaron! One of my favorites in my collection!
