Day two starts with baseball cards. Generally high grade, we have sets and lots going back to 1950 and through the current day. There is very solid material here that is fresh to the market from a few consignors that had great eyes for condition. Baseball card singles start in the 1930s and go to the current day. We have many oddball items, runs of 1955 Doubleheaders, 1958 Hires Root Beer with the tabs, 1962 Salada Coins team shields and clean Topps stars from the 1960s and early 1970s.
