Philadelphia's Top 10 Players of All-TimeThe City of Philadelphia has a great history of sports heros. This list will talk about the player but it will also showcase the history of the player's sports card which I have been working on collecting since I was young boy. This collection will also showcase rare pieces of player memorobila that I have aquired over the years. All the cards and memorabilia are part of a collection I am dubbing the "Philly Collection". I hope you enjoy the collection and continue to check in as I build the collection and the site. |

1971 Topps #439 Phillies Rookies
The latest card features Phillies rookie Greg Luzinski from the 1971 Topps set which is known by collectors as and extreamly tough set to get in mint condition. This is due to the black borders which makes this set so attractive but also allows for easy damage to the cards edges. This perticular example is graded Mint 9 by PSA and there are non graded higher at this time.
