1969 Topps Fergie Jenkins

1969 Topps Fergie Jenkins

Very few cards have been on my ‘Needs’ list longer than this beauty from the 1969 Topps base set.

And now, after almost two years of chasing and waiting and chasing and waiting some more, I can proudly declare that I am the owner of a 1969 Topps Ferguson Jenkins baseball card!!!

It has been quite some time, and I have seen countless numbers of these cards fly through the Ebay machine, but I finally made my move on this one.  Over the last few months, my desire to get this card intensified, so I started bidding on quite a few of them.  Some went for way too much money, and many were not up to the quality standards I wanted.  This one is a happy medium for me – I paid just $13.00 and although it is not in MINT condition(centering is off), the corners are very sharp, and the coloring looks great!

See for yourself:

Good stuff, huh??

I am so pleased to be able to scratch this one off of my ‘Needs’ list.  The chase was long, but fun too!!!
