Those are beautiful Howard and Empty77. Not a crack or curl in sight

Yeah, mine's actually a 10, but I cropped that out b/c I didn't want to seem too much of a braggart...oh, oops.

But I don't have any of the others at all and actually never seen them, so I'm quite handicapped in quantity and diversity. I guess I take my role here to post what I may have so as to coax others like Howard to 1-up it (or in this case, to 4-up it!)

My biggest joy in collecting has always been sharing things that others may not have seen or know exist. An extension of that has been seeing things I didn't know existed - as this thread has accomplished a number of times. I have definitely focused on diversity. So when I saw the post of the sealed 72, I recalled that I had the others and hadn't posted them. I don't really care much to brag as much as collaborate with other Clemente collectors to understand what is out there. The thrill of the hunt over many years has been AWESOME! So thank you to those who have shared their collections on this thread and please see what I post in a light of sharing rather than bragging.

This thread inspired me to take some toys to work today

Mike that Clemente bank looks much better in your photo than those I’ve seen presented in the past. Wish the Orioles would have made one of those stadium pieces too.

Empty & Howard,

Great Kellogg’s cards. I dont have any still sealed😩

Mike,

You’re a brave man bringing those into work. I still need to get one of those plaster busts.

Thanks the banks are two of my favorite pieces. My staff think that its rather strange that I have such toys at work. They have no idea of the relative rarity or value of the banks. Due to this there is little risk at all and there is certainly no interest in them.

The small stadium model is mystery to me. To date I have collected three versions of it in differing color and sticker combos. I actually have a large roll of over 500 of the green infield stickers I assume were used in production. I have no idea how the stadiums were packaged or marketed. If anyone has any info regarding them I would love to here from you.

Ok, so that eclectic display is going to be a bit more challenging for me to catalogue than the average post on this thread....

ok, I think will complete the list of known Exhibit Supply Co. variants for the thread:

No need to do so. Roberto was my favorite player but I collect his entire early 1970s crew.

Howard, these are roughly evenly split, no?
(I agree w/ you it would have been nice if TPGs kept track of them and considered them a variation of each other.)
