Super Rare Baseball Cards - Massive Personal Collection Pickup!

I am thankful to have encountered an opportunity to buy one of the more rare baseball cards that are out there. I can't give myself credit on the opportunity as it was passed to me via a Facebook post that I was tagged in.
Special Thanks to Brian Roth (Card Soup, ‪@broth6‬ ) I was put in contact with a reputable seller named Andy Gellar
(www.ebay.com/s...)
He had a listing of some super rare baseball cards for sale and I was thrilled to be able to have the opportunity. With a little bit of negotiating back and forth, we were able to agree on a deal and had a great chat afterwards. For the record, I'd highly recommend Andy as a dealer. He's very quick to respond and is very fair.
All in all, please enjoy this video and let me know what you think!

Over valued card bad investment go for a berra 48 bowman in a 5 or better that card is way undervalued

You just won the pinned comment award.🥇

Hi Sammy,
Thanks for the look at your recent pickups! The Mays Transogram is magnificent!
Have a great week.
Best Wishes,
Peter

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you Peter!

[@ACD1994]

Congrats! Incredible pickup.

[@SammyThunder]

Thanks Andrew!

[@Dodgertown_76_Fungo]

Congratulations. That Stahl-Meyer frank card needed a drum roll introduction. That's a beauty. Awesome information of a card that is not seen much or not at all. Thanks for sharing.

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you friend! It’s cool that they were a partner to the giants, Yankees and dodgers. I’m sure they made good money back then.

[@jimfalkler9361]

Hi Sammy, what a great pickup and congrats. That Mays is a great card to add to your collection.

[@SammyThunder]

[@jpcards]

Congrats, Sammy! That is a fantastic card. And shout-out to Brian on the find!

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you so much!

[@vintagesportflips]

Such a beautiful card - Fantastic image of Mays on this scarce one.

[@SammyThunder]

I appreciate and admire the oversized cards in general. The Stahl Meyer set in particular is a fascinating one. I like the concept of cross culture elements being applied to cards with Hot Dogs on one end and Baseball on the other. They go so well!

[@tonyfarfan2]

Amazing card Sammy!

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you so much!

[@garypeters1441]

Sammy, I’m so happy for you. Congratulations. That 54 Mays SMF card is amazing. 🤩

[@SammyThunder]

Appreciate it man. Thank you!

[@LegendsNeverDieCollection]

Congratulations on the Stahl-Meyer Mays pickup Sammy!!

[@SammyThunder]

Thanks Jake.

[@armourcoin]

Sammy, what a nice addition to your Mays collection. I believe that the reason these cards are often stained and creased is that they were part of the inner packaging on the hot dogs. I know this is the case with Armour Hot Dogs. Also some of the other hot dog issues. Dave Blue Jacket is the expert on these. I have priced some of these recently-forget it!

[@SammyThunder]

I look forward to asking him about it when I see him next (likely The National).

[@stuke1976]

Awesome pickup Sammy! Fun cards.

[@SammyThunder]

Thanks Stuke!

Hi Sammy. What a beauty, so happy for you, congrats my friend.

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you!

[@michaelyoung7974]

Congratulations on that Stahl-Meyer Mays! I think this is the closest glimpse I've ever had of one of the cards from that set. I got a kick out of your reading, "New York 35." Back before ZIP codes, the biggest cities were divided into numbered zones to speed up the mail sorting and delivery process. I remember enjoying Hires Root Beer as a lad, but I never had any of the cards. I think you had to buy a six-pack to get one.

[@SammyThunder]

Lol. That threw me for a loop. You caught me there. That's really cool to know.

[@thedetroitcollector]

Monster. Awesome pickup Sammy

[@SammyThunder]

Appreciate it man!

[@SammyThunder]

Appreciate it Theo. Thank you!

[@4softcorners728]

My guess was going to be the ‘51 Bowman, but this is infinitely cooler and such an amazing card! Huge congrats Sammy!!

[@SammyThunder]

The 51 Bowman is sure a beauty of a card. Maybe in the future, but for now, I'm really pleased with the direction I'm going in.

[@WaxPackWisdom]

Way to go Sammy, what a card! Congrats!

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you for that. 😎

[@SammyThunder]

Thanks Brad.

[@MrPretty20]

That’s sweet man, congrats

[@SammyThunder]

Thank you

[@AshMorton]

If memory serves, the cards included in the hot dog packs suffered from hot dog juice getting on them in the packs. So, finding these in general is tougher than tough. Awesome pickup Sam!

[@SammyThunder]

Thanks Ash. That’s interesting. I’ve only heard about the card getting damaged because of the dogs being frozen

[@BringingTheHeat-VBC]

Fantastic SAMMY! So happy for you. Enjoy it my handsome friend!
