Day 94 - 4 April 2024
Anyway need a match? I know these have been discussed before but I really enjoy the 1970 Oriole Matchbook set. I have displayed the 24 different players. Obviously, my favorite is Brooks but I really enjoy the other stars (Palmer, McNally, Powell, Frank, Cuellar, Blair and Belanger). This was a tough set to complete. I worked pretty hard on this set and over a year or so, completed it. Along the way, I picked up some extras. I am always looking for nicer copies. On the inside of the “book” there is a schedule for the Orioles home games. I always wondered about the phone number (301-243-9800)…was that for a smokey bar or to get your tickets? I hated to flatten the Brooks and add it to my PSA Master Set but did it (sorry). The book was not in the best shape so please forgive me. I thought it would grade higher but it came back as a PSA 2.5. I am sure I could top that but can’t bring myself to ruining another matchbook.
