Jim Brown's 1,408 rushing yards led the NFL in 1961, it was his fifth consecutive season doing so, while on his way to leading that category for eight of his nine season's played.

1961 Topps Jim Brown
As I continue to go through and clean out my old photo/scan folders, I keep finding neat things that have somehow eluded being shown, with today's card being no exception.
This was yet another COMC purchase, that I believe was gotten in late 2015. I can't remember how much it was at this point, I just remember that before I bought it (with credit earned from doing challenges), I checked and saw that this particular card was priced at less than copies in similar condition were selling for on eBay. And really, other than the printing line at the top, I would say this card is in pretty solid condition overall.

Awesome card, and it looks great even with the minor print line. Isn't it awesome when you can 'earn' a card like this, rather than paying out cold hard cash? COMC is the best.
ReplyDeleteWow, I haven't gotten a Chris comment in quite a while! But seriously though, it is pretty great being able to acquire cards from earned credit. I think I have been doing the challenges (off and on) for around three years now, and have been able to get so many things that I probably wouldn't have been able to get had I not been doing them. And I have also been able to cash out some of that credit on a few different occasions when I wanted something semi-expensive off site.
DeleteAre you going to rub a coin over the blank space? I'd love to what picture shows up on the card ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously... this is one beautiful Brown. Nice purchase.
I don't think Jim Brown would appreciate being rubbed, and especially not by me.
