New side PC: #1 Overall Draft Picks

[jmintz]

Since I don't already have enough PC projects I'm doing...


#1 overall NBA (not ABA) Draft picks!!!


I figured - no Jordan, no Maravich, no Barkley, no Wilt...so not entirely cost-prohibitive for my budget. A few like Duncan and Ewing won't be cheap but won't be $1,000+ each. Plus, I already had a bunch through other PC projects or just from my current inventory.


And, some of these dudes just don't have anything available at all (the first guys from the 40s, for example). Some will have to be PSA DNA or stuff I take a shot at through the mail, or maybe I'll just use a not-too-terribly conditioned RC.

Not really - would depend on what it was & the price.

Great idea for a project. Good luck on the older #1s!

Very cool project! Will be a blast to follow along. Amazing stuff already. Really like the look of that Wall card.
