Pickups - More Milt, Old and New

Happy to add the following to my Kraut collection, a nice vintage card and a modern one that I don't think "sucks"; the great #15, Milt Schmidt. I think they compliment each other quite nicely.

Those are both great looking cards. Both the colour and registration on the 65 Topps card are outstanding.

Thanks Rob. I can't see too much wrong with the card. What do you mean by "registration" ?

I was thinking the same thing about that card's color and registration, which refers to the crispness or clarity of the image. If a card is out of register, one or more of the colors may have been printed slightly off, resulting in a grainy or shadowy type look. Not mine, but this is an extreme example of a card with poor registration:

Thanks, I had not heard that term before, sounds better than "focus". It is a very clear image, even more than the scan shows, can never seem to get a crisp image out of my scanner.

I agree that the Ultimate Memorabilia card is sweet, but did you notice that the Schmidt Ultimate Memorabilia can't stop staring at the 1965 Topps card? Even he knows that real vintage cards are the sweetest looking cards!
