Nice! Mind if I ask what you paid for a Cobb?

That Ruth figure is really great! I was buying lots of toy figures back then and NEVER saw that before ... And my buddy was the Manager of the local Toys R Us ... I would have seen it, if it came into that store! Wow!
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.
Thanks Doc! So what is the most you would have paid for it at a yard sale?

I think you got what one might call "a great deal". Nice shopping!
I appreciate Chicago players that begin competing within the city's sports organizations and stay with these teams throughout their careers.
Thanks for the reply!
