Thanks for the shout-out, my friend! So cool that you got to hang out with Rob! Nice additions to your 55 Bowman set! We appreciate you and we're excited to be on this TH-cam journey with you ❤
Good stuff Doug! Nice stack of 55 Bowman’s! Love the 53 Bowman Reese! So cool that you got to hang out with Rob! It’s always fun meeting and hanging out with like minded collectors!
Great video Doug and I agree 100%. The connections that are made on a personal level is simply the best part of this you tube journey. I think it is so cool that you got to spend time with Rob and all of the others you mentioned in your video. I got to spend a good amount of time with Drew at the National and he is an awesome guy!
@@EverydayCardCollector-Jason thank you Jason. There are so many great people in the hobby we love and sadly, just not enough time in the day or opportunities to meet. That’s why it’s so important to take advantage of those opportunities when able. I agree that Drew is awesome, but don’t tell him lol.
I love the Billy and Bob Shantz 55 Bowman combo. Nice Zimmer RC. Beautiful Koufax RC. The Pee Wee Reese Color is amazing, image looks fantastic clean crisp photo. It is beyond awesome meeting up with YT guys as well and it was great being able to meet up with you at the CB card show. Always enjoy Doug. Thanks again.
@@vintagecardssteve8582 thank you Steve, Hope that there’s another opportunity to meet up again. There’s nothing like getting to hang out with YT friends.
Doug! That Slaughter looks awesome in that case. Awesome to see it ended up there and thank you for the generous comments. Really appreciate it. And congrats on all the pickups! The Reese is one of my favorite Dodgers cards.
@@MarksDodgersCards thanks Mark, I really like those cases. The labels are just done on my laptop and then printed and cut. as you know, this community is awesome and only giving better. That Reese was really an unexpected find at my local show and has been a card. I’ve wanted for a long time. Thanks again for the slaughter card and you’ll see it above my shoulder in my videos as I placed it on my slaughter/walker autographed bat case.
Amazing Cards Doug! Sweet 53 Reese and just an awesome Koufax rookie! You’re right! The community really is where it’s at! Thank you for this video my friend.
@@justyouraveragegeeks thank you sir. Getting to meet Rob in person was fantastic. Appreciate you watching and I hope you have a good weekend, my friend.
Great cards Doug. With the acquisition of the Reese and the Waitkus, you are definitely on track for the Sunday Night Live hall of fame. LOL. Have a great week my friend.
@@mikethesportshistorycollec1947 lol. I love the Sunday night hangouts and wish I could be on every one of them. Hope you’ve been having a great week and enjoy the holiday weekend. I had my friend.
@@mikesbaseballcards thanks Mike. I just sent the Pee Wee off for grading so well how that comes out. Was super fun to meet with Rob CC. Take care as well.
@@videoguy316 Actually we're getting nice cool weather here. Driving home last night from work n was 61°. Off today sitting with my dogs & labeling my baseball binders. Have a great weekend Doug.
Hi Doug. Great cards, and I especially like the '58 Enos Slaughter you won. It looks nice in the holder w/ your custom label. I haven't seen a mag pro holder in person yet, but they do look nice from what I can tell. Also, it's nice that you've been able to meet other collectors in person and get to know them better. I've only had the opportunity to meet one person from YT, and it was Chris from MO. I enjoyed talking to him, and even buying a card from him. - Take care, my friend!
@@AutomaticForTheCollector if you’re ever near Des Moines Eric, just let me know and we’ll hang out my friend. It’s been nice to meet up with people, but was a little nervous as well. I like the mag pros but they’re a bit expensive. The label is something I did in Word & then printed & cut out. I’m still experimenting with that. Hope you’re having a great weekend and you take care as well.
@@theathletearchives thanks Gordon. Yes, it’s hard to believe. Apart from his Cubbies days, I just remember him on the ground during the Pedro scuffle lol.
Doug sweet pickups love the Enos Slaughter card and the pee wee Reece is on my short list. Couldn't agree with you more about meeting and hanging out with the guys in this community it just makes this whole card collecting hobby better awesome video Doug take care and be safe Amigo 👊
@@rudog21 thanks Mark. I keep thinking that it can’t get better & yet it keeps getting better. This community is growing & means that there are new friendships to be made. Like us my friend. Appreciate the support and friendship.👊
Love that custom license plate in the background! Love your’55 Bowman acquisitions. Nice contest win/ love your custom flips. That Koufax looks pack fresh- beautiful card. ‘53 Bowman color is the best looking set ever produced, in my opinion. Great commentary, the feeling are mutual, my friend! “Beyond the comments”, I like that a lot. If I hadn’t named my interview show the collectors chat/ I’d want to steal that! Thanks for such a happy episode and good collecting 👍❤️
@@commentingcollector thanks Rob. I picked up those little license plate pieces at Hobby lobby and put them together though it was kind of expensive lol. I agree with your comments on the 53, I wish I had more of them. I look forward to hanging out again, my friend.
Congrats on the ‘53 PeeWee, Doug. Iconic card and you got a nice copy of it. I like your custom labels! It’s awesome to meet up with friends we make through YT. Rob is a really great guy and so is Mrs. C. Glad y’all met and had a great time!
@@signsofthepastime thank you Hugo. The custom label is really just my attempt in Word and then printed and cut. It looks good from a distance lol. Agree Rob and Mrs. C are fantastic. It was like we were all old friends getting back together to see each other. I can hardly wait to hopefully meet up with him again. Hope you have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend ahead, my friend.
Hi Doug, I was glad to see your video today. Congratulations on the Slaughter win from Mark! I recently started watching Mark’s channel and enjoy his content. Your 55 Bowman set continues to come along nicely. Building a set is a lot of fun, especially the satisfaction of completing a page in the binder. I still enjoy looking through the 69 Topps set I put together. Is there a particular card that you haven’t added yet and are looking forward to? It’s nice that you were able to go to dinner with Rob and his wife. I’m very happy for you regarding the 53 Bowman Reese. I know that card was high on your list. Have a great rest of the week!
@@tjmacvintagecardsnostalgia648 thanks Terry. Meeting Mark in person was definitely one of my many memories of the National that I cherish. As for 55, patiently working on it & I’m looking forward to a Johnny Podres pickup at some point. I’m a Yankees fan for sure but I also really enjoy Brooklyn Dodgers cards. Podres being WS MVP in 55 is also a reason it’s one I’ve been wanting one.
Hi Doug Fantastic pickups and awesome video. Love the 55 bowman set and I am with you on collecting that one. I appreciate your thoughts on the value of the community and look forward to more content like this.
@@DogAteMyCard thank you for the kind words Andy. I remember watching your first video but have watched it again. It was a VR masterpiece & the cards, beautiful. I then checked to make sure I was subscribed & was not, so I did that. Now, hoping you’ll make content again. As for 55, there is just something about that wood grain look that I love. Glad that you share a love for that set. I have all of the HOF’s (except umpires) so I thought why not it go for the set. I’m enjoying the progress & am finding that love for the design all over again. Anyway, enough rambling. Thank you for taking the time to watch & comment. I look forward to hopefully more comments in the future, but also maybe another video or two from you. 🤔
Hi! There are a lot of happy vibes in this video, Doug! First of all, great pickups. The Reese is awesome and I hope to find one someday soon. Next, it’s fun to see Sandy again. You own a beautiful example, my friend. Lastly, this community is fantastic! I’m glad you got to hang out with Rob and I hope to hangout with you in Strongsville. Have a great rest of your day!
@@RobCashCards appreciate all your kind words Rob. Strongsville is a must do for me, especially getting a small taste of meeting people at the national but more over, seeing all of the Strongsville videos earlier this year. It would be fantastic to be able to meet you in person, my friend. Hope you have a great rest of your day and a wonderful holiday weekend ahead.
Man Doug those Bowman’s are beauties! Zimmer is on my wantlist for sure. So happy you were able to hang with Rob. I wonder if your wives broke off and took shots , drowning their sorrows of being married to such avid collectors almost like a support group😂😂 great vid!
@@macwaxxstacks thanks BK. My wife doesn’t drink but has threatened & they were discussing things while Rob & I were planning or conspiring as they put it. 😂😂
Great video, and what a beauty that Koufax is. Like the 55 Bowman set ...good luck with it. Nice pickup! Hopefully you can make it to Strongsville in 2025, would be great to spend more time with you and all the other TH-camrs
@@CraigsCards62 I’m certainly planning to Pastor & the feeling is mutual. The dates for Strongsville will open up in January so I can plan accordingly. Chicago is a for sure so I keep checking to see if the hotels are booking that far out. One is but I’d need Mangini money to book lol.
Doug, what a stunning '55 Bowman Super Chief Allie Reynolds pickup! 🤩🤩🤩 Still so stoked for you on your glorious Koufax rookie! But then ... you blew us away with that stunning '53 Bowman Color Pee Wee Reese! 🤯🤯🤯 I look forward to seeing you at the 2025 National! Perhaps we will walk the National floor together at some point! 😊👊
@@vintagesanctuary I knew you’d like the Reynolds. My original audio mentioned that but totally lost that thought when I did the voiceover. The 53 was a total surprise pickup and felt I couldn’t walk away after we negotiated whet I knew was a fair, final price from the dealer. It will be going in for grading, hopefully in a few weeks so it can be preserved. Whether it gets a number grade or authentic, doesn’t matter to me. It was a fun negotiation, which is totally not my strong point, so it makes the acquisition of that card just a little more special. I would look forward to walking the national floor with you, my friend, that would be awesome. thank you as always for your support. Have a great and glorious holiday weekend Adam.
Great cards. Are you getting close to finishing the 1955 set? It was great meeting you as well. Maybe we will run into each other in Des Moines? When is the next show there?
@@CleanCheapShots thanks Drew. I’m a ways off on the set yet as I have around 170ish to acquire yet of the 320. The next show is the Capital City Card Convention 9/20-9/22. Let me know if you venture this way my friend.
