Congrats on the signed 84 Donruss Grand Champion Mantle. What a find and deal. I like the signed 76 Reggie a lot and the Teddy postcard. Great 1st day, Mike
Mike, congrats on your glorious Leaf Joe DiMaggio! I totally agree; registration, too me, is more important than centering and a big deal for 1949 Leaf cards! Your copy is outstanding! 🤯🤯🤯 Stunning Mathewson! Congrats, my collecting brother! It was great to see you again! 😊👊
Great pick ups! Like you pointed out, that Mathewson is an absolute beauty! The DiMaggio is great looking too! Congrats! Looks like you also met up with a ton of awesome RUclips guys. Hope you had a great time!
Better go at the hotel or air bnb haha! That's going to be a massive oversight by the event. Love the pickups Mike! Glad you did discover more I was typing a silly comment and already hit send lol
Way to start things off with a BANG! Great additions to the collection. Love seeing you branch into the prewar. I'm doing a little of the same, but on a much smaller scale. Appreciate the great show footage.
So many great guest appearances! Great pick ups for day 1 Mike! The 49 DiMaggio is sweet! And that Mathewson is just gorgeous! Can’t wait to see what day 2 brings!
Great coloring on the DiMaggio... outstanding Mathewson. And the Mantle auto at 300 was terrific value. Great to find these all at one show...good use of your profits from some good purchases like the Houston and the grail.
Good stuff. Seems like a no brainer to pay up for whatever pass gets you in before the herd stampedes in. The morning of day 1 seems like the best time. Get your cards and then chill out with your mates away from the crowd. Hope you all have a wonderful time.
Really awesome pickups! Love the byron nelson and mantle autos. Still looking forward to the bird magic! Maybe tomorrow 😂. Have fun. Hope i get to go one year
Amazing pickups Mike. You're dead on about registration vs centering, and registration is one of the biggest issues with the '48-'49 Leafs. You got a great one. Congrats.
Glad to hear there are more bathrooms . Awesome pickups Mike. That Mantle auto is incredible. That 49’ Leaf DiMaggio is beautiful!!. Dylan may disagree with you about centering 😂. I absolutely love that Mathewson!!!
Outstanding, wow! The registration on that DiMaggio made it look 3-D! Love that lime green background color too, I’m not really a fan of that particular DiMaggio card but yours won me over…..and that Mathewson, forget about it! Love that Jackson auto, looked great on that card
Congrats on your wonderful cards you have acquired today..🎉 They're all very beautiful Mike and I love the Ted Williams and Christy Mathewson.🤯 Also the jolton Joe Di'maggio.🫠 Take care.👍🔥❤️✊
Hope you don't have too many people whizzing past you. Watching NAT videos to keep my mind off what's going on here. More importantly, Garrett has fresh undies. Now time to Slaughter the competition.
Far from a gimmick It’s actually the opposite - just plain how it looks to the eye. No magnication, emphasis on surface, cornering, grade, … just how does it look overall?!
I agree with the leaders cards. The Matthewson is awesome. One of the first 5 inducted HOF
That Matty is amazing.
Congrats on the great pickup ! Enjoying following along these videos from this week
4:05 dont miss the cat show in October!!!!
I don't think there will be much carryover...lollll
Congrats on the signed 84 Donruss Grand Champion Mantle. What a find and deal. I like the signed 76 Reggie a lot and the Teddy postcard. Great 1st day, Mike

Wow! Good for you! Excellent cards
Awesome pickups Mike. The Christy is gorgeous.
Better go at the hotel or air bnb haha! That's going to be a massive oversight by the event. Love the pickups Mike! Glad you did discover more I was typing a silly comment and already hit send lol
All good. I thought it was funny.
Way to start things off with a BANG! Great additions to the collection. Love seeing you branch into the prewar. I'm doing a little of the same, but on a much smaller scale. Appreciate the great show footage.
The color and visual quality of that Mathewson is incredible
It is indeed
What did you pay for that awesome Christy?
Great centered Lemon! Cleveland pickup from the Cleveland national, go Tribe! And thanks again Mike for the event tonight. Great times ⚾️🇺🇸✌🏽
Mantle auto for less than the price of a 2024 Topps Chrome Jumbo Box? Yes please!!! Awesome pick ups! I need a Lasorda 85 Topps auto now!!
Thanks Ron. The Lasorda auto is sweet
Thanks for the live updates. That Matty has AMAZING eye appeal. Great pickups. Really nice stuff!
Could you possibly film the negotiation process when you are buying?
Man the Perez Steeles are awesome- but the Mathewson 😍😍😍
Real nice Joe D. You got a steal on both the Mantle and Jackson auto cards. Well done on day 1.
So many great guest appearances! Great pick ups for day 1 Mike! The 49 DiMaggio is sweet! And that Mathewson is just gorgeous! Can’t wait to see what day 2 brings!
Sweet and informative video! Bathrooms definitely are an important factor!
Great coloring on the DiMaggio...
outstanding Mathewson. And the Mantle auto at 300 was terrific value. Great to find these all at one show...good use of your profits from some good purchases like the Houston and the grail.
Couldn't agree more!

Very true!
The vip passes were definitely a scam waited in a line for 1 and a half and everyone who bought a regular ticket or early access all got in before me
@@jamesbrooks9688 That's rough.
Great pick-ups there, Mike! Always great to tick off goals along the way.
Thanks for sharing them. 👍
Really awesome pickups! Love the byron nelson and mantle autos. Still looking forward to the bird magic! Maybe tomorrow 😂. Have fun. Hope i get to go one year
Great pickups MIke love the 52 Topps cards and the 76 Jackson the Joe D is a good-looking card, and the Mathewson is very sharp
Incredible pick ups
Awesome Mathewson!
Amazing pickups Mike. You're dead on about registration vs centering, and registration is one of the biggest issues with the '48-'49 Leafs. You got a great one. Congrats.

Thanks so much!
Great haul! Love that Joe D but I think the Mickey signed card is my favorite of your pick ups. I can only dream of owning a Mantle.
Incredible day when you can add a beautiful Joltin' Joe and Matty card! Congrats man!
Well I'm hope. You. Get some. Great cards
Great cards !
Great Matty Portrait pickup Mike. See you at the meetup tomorrow.
That's. Awsome
Love the HOF Leader Cards
Great pick ups Mike! The Mathewson is purty!! @15:01 is there a crease on the back that goes through the "S" in SUBJECTS, top to bottom?
Lots of great pickups, but really like the Joe D, Mathewson and Mantle!
Congrats on the awesome pickups Mike! Those last few cards had amazing registration! Great eye!!
Thanks a bunch!
You really reeled in a bunch of great cards.
I certainly did Scott.
You had an awesome day Mike! Congrats on the Joe D and Mathewson!! I know you've been looking to add a Mathewson portrait for a while!
Thanks Scott. It was a good day for the collection
Great pick-ups and show tour. Very nice Mantle, Jumpin Joe and Christy cards.
Great looking Joe D.!
Thanks Mitchell
Love the Mathewson card. Great pick ups!!
very cool. u didnt say the prices on last couple 😥
Belair sports cards are from my home state of Maryland also if you see great moments sports they are from Maryland too lot of vintage cards.
Very nice Mathewson. SGC would have this as a 3 or 4. PSA screwed that one up. Do you have a partnership with PSA??
Awesome pickups! Nice you got some fresh picks early on
Reggie J hard to get signatures
Nice pick ups!
Congrats on the great purchases, i like the cards you collect.

Thanks Chris
Nice pickups Mike
Thanks so much
@@BaseballCollector patiently waiting for your next National update. Since I can’t be there, I’m living vicariously through you! 😁
The foyer vibes are giving me a mild panic attack in my lounge room.
Awesome pickups.
Nice DiMaggio & Mathewson cards
Love the pick ups.
Amazing pick ups.
Men over 40. Those bathrooms are critical. The struggle is real
Nice haul
Thank you! 🤗
Man, the registration on that Mathewson is so good!! The shading really adds depth to the image. Great pick up!
Terrific cards.
Thanks
Awesome pickups Mike! Love the Mantle and Matthewson! Cal is cool too!

Are you doing a meetup today?
Hello, thanks you for sharing the day 1. WOW, some AWESOME pickups ! Congrats.
cool hat. Double D!!
Congrats on the pickups today! Excited to see your videos of the show and the hobby energy!
What’s up Mike
So jealous!
How many are you down to on the 4 decade project now?
nice Reggie!
Congrats on your wonderful cards you have acquired today..🎉 They're all very beautiful Mike and I love the Ted Williams and Christy Mathewson.🤯 Also the jolton Joe Di'maggio.🫠 Take care.👍🔥❤️✊
Color me jealous
Gage it by how many people are exchanging money just because it's busy doesn't mean roo much
Hope you don't have too many people whizzing past you. Watching NAT videos to keep my mind off what's going on here. More importantly, Garrett has fresh undies. Now time to Slaughter the competition.
Just go pee outside. I hear there is nothing much in that area anyway. lol
Nice cards and nice buys. Not a fan of the marketing gimmick term “eye appeal.”
How is eye appeal a marketing gimmick?
Far from a gimmick It’s actually the opposite - just plain how it looks to the eye. No magnication, emphasis on surface, cornering, grade, … just how does it look overall?!
It was cool at first but after the crowd got massive it was a little overwhelming lol and you dont know which way to turn.
True. Happens to me every year.
Amazing pickups!
