    Talking Craigslist Ad Turns Out INSANE

    Hey everyone,
    So today, I was surfing Craigslist to see if people had older cards for sale. I found a box where someone wanted $10 and it had some late-70s through late-80s cards (lookin at the pic). Well, I decided to take a chance with that one and a few others.

    Upon getting home, I was stoked to see what kinda goodies people were getting rid of. As I was sorting, I decided to put them into year stacks and something caught my eye....

    something that I couldn't believe..... (see pic below)






    (Sorry the pic is blurry, the only camera I have at the moment is my phone)

    YES!! It is exactly what it looks like.... a 1971 Topps #5 Thurman Munson!!! The card has rough edges, the centering looks pretty good and NO CREASES or scratches!!

    At first, I thought "no way someone could have over looked this!"

    I even had to check the card over SEVERAL times to make sure it was real and sure enough it is the "Real McCoy"

    I have not decided to flip it yet or what since this was one card I always wanted due to it's legendary status amongst collectors.

    Oh, and it went directly into a penny sleeve, Top loader, w/team bag!!

    Thanx for the look,
    BAM
