Got a little crazy last night... but it's all good.

Beautiful contrast on that one! Nice pickup!

Thanks, Brian!

Great looking card, Jamie! I assume there must be some reverse issues? That is a killer-looking 1.5!!!

Thanks, Blair!  Yeah, there are some back issues - the old scrapbook remains are on the back, which doesn't bother me at all.  One thing about this card that I love is the size of his mustache - under magnification, you can see that his mustache protrudes out past the sides of his face, over to where his ears are!  I love that!  LOL.

Here is a close-up with a "stache graph" which shows the actual size of this thing:





Now that's a 'stache!  Yikes!!!  

I can see it now...Jamie with a handlebar mustache at the next dinner!!!!

Maybe I will do that!  I've got a year to grow it, so it could be possible... maybe you'll join me, Pete, it would go well with your shaved head.  You'd look a bit like Ole Hoss Radbourn...

Am I the only one to notice that SGC labeled old Pop as Pap?  As in Pap Smear...I mean Pap Smith...I mean Pop Smith   

Great card Jamie.

I did notice it, too, and I think it's a matter I will bring up with SGC!

Thanks Khartik.

At what point does a nicely groomed handlebar mustache become ape hangers?

Great card Jamie!

Not sure the ape hangers would be too helpful for playing the shortstop position!
