A minor pick-up...
Already had one, but I liked this one more than the one I had.

BK picked a great year to give whole cards to the Tigers rooks. Do you know if they did other teams also...eg 1978 Molitor or 1977/1978 Dale Murphy?

Quick question that I couldn't solve via Google. O/T for our pickup thread but I know one of you will have a quick answer.
A term I see on N54 a lot is "Type Card" but I don't know what it means. Lemme know. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

I think the term "type card" would be defined as any card within a collection of different issues, years, teams, etc. Each one is it's own type.
I know many collect players from a certain team, and like to get a card from every issue known. When adding a 1952 Topps or a 1932 US Caramel to a Phillies set, for example, they are adding a "type card" to that collection.

Right or wrong, I tend to lump Al Simmons and Chuck Klein together, so I decided a while back to get cards of each of them for my Top 100 display from the same set--1933 DeLong. A N54 member gave me a terrific deal on Simmons, but I struggled to find an affordable Klein with good centering and color.
After much searching and losing out on a PWCC auction, I finally bit the bullet. And shown with it is my Simmons from last year. 93 down...7 more to go!

A few tough ones left to go!
Ruth - 1933 Goudey Gehrig - 1934 Goudey Dean - 1934 Goudey Appling - 1935 Diamond Stars Hartnett - 1936 Worldwide Gehringer - 1941 Play Ball Cronin - 1941 Play Ball Not sure if you guys saw the red Ruth that went in PWCC last night...SGC 40...near perfect but with two very faint surface creases. Man, was I close on that one! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Just out of curiosity, Jason, why?

It was really about when/how I learned about these guys. As a kid, WAY pre-internet, I knew about the top-shelf immortals like Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Young, etc.--basically the guys who would get chapters in 1970s-era kids' books like "Baseball's Greatest Players" or the guys in the 1976 Topps All-time All-star subset.
Once I got my hands on the Baseball Encyclopedia, these two guys I'd never heard of jumped out at me. Both played largely in Philly around the same time, both had almost exactly 300 HRs (which was a LOT when I was a kid), and both hit for very high average--.320 and .334. But yes, as I type this, I am cognizant of your (very correct) "Klein is overrated" post from a year ago...taking away ballpark effects, I gather these two guys begin to look very different.

That's ok, I tend to always think of Yount and Molitor the same way because they were both Brewers, though their games were completely different.

just in case anything fishy happens down the road or if anything happened to me, the fam doesn't get screwed. |

So is this your confession? Are you part of the "gang"?
