I was born in 64 and don't remember these at all? Pop-Tarts, yes, but these, no.
Could be they weren't sold up here, which is a good possibility, or my folks just never bought them for some reason?

Love the Gibby team issues!

Adam, I have a back panel of a Kellogg's box that shows a Yaz card (my main collection). I think it's 1980.

These were like Pop-Tarts on steroids. Extra sugar, extra frosting. One could get you a sugar high for hours.

Very cool to see this! I remember that box from my childhood. Recall pulling a Cobb and Hornsby, at the time having no idea who they were (I was about 9yo at the time). At that age I was more interested in the pastries than the cards but for some reason they made a strong impression. I saved them though and started collecting Topps not long after.

On to some recent additions. I don't specifically pursue graded for the 52T, it just turned out that way this time around...

1 win more than I ever had...

Thanks, guys.

...nice pick-ups, all!

Out of curiosity, I looked up Denehy's career stats - and I threw up a little in my mouth. Haha All kidding aside - I was happy to add the Denehy/Seaver card to the collection.

I've been collecting since the early 1970s and never heard of the 1964 Topps standups until a few years ago. Never laid eyes on one until I got a Clemente a few months ago. These lower-grade Mays and Aaron cards arrived in the mail this week. Now I just need a reasonably priced Frank Howard. This set has really nice eye appeal.

The Richie Allen card is one of my 2 or 3 favorites in the 1965 set.

Very nice, Larry - I'll bet you are stoked! For those who aren't familiar, this is a 1948 Gunther Beer Washington Senators PC.

Larry, the Old Cardboard HOF Rookie Card Database lists this PC as one of Early Wynn's RCs, and they are seeking a pic of an example to include in their Database. I encourage you to send OC scans of your PC.

Awesome pickup, Larry. I love obscure, tough regional issues. Nearly my entire collection is stuff from out of the mainstream.

I was not familiar at all with the Gunther Beer postcard set until seeing your post. I then did some Googling to learn more.

Went to a card show and these were too cheap to pass up. Might need to do a Jensen run now.

Really pleased to add this Nolan Ryan RC with such great centering today. And at a price lower than expected.

With this upgrade, it looks like I'll have a nicely-centered PSA 7 to offer up on the Net54 BST now -- I hope it ends up with a good home :)

Been looking for a clean ungraded copy of the ‘68. I’m pretty satisfied with this one. As an Os fan it doesn’t get much better than the two Robinsons on a multiplayer card. ‘67 came close but they squeezed old Hank Bauer between the two and it just didn’t work as well for me, ha.

The Robinson brothers card looks GREAT! I also like the ‘63 Fleer Brooksie as well...

Picked these up at a local auction a week ago Friday night. Had 26 of the 33 cards plus about 10 duplicates. The Mantle may be in the best shape of all of them. Overall pretty good condition.

Much easier to install a 1953 horizontal Pee Wee Reese.

I feel your pain! Last January was a new furnace and A/C unit and now I am currently looking at a $30K+ Chevy Impala. :eek:

The CDN dollar is in the crapper again so it's just as well anyways.

Picked these up from Lelands. The Thomson patch completes my set (including the 2 uncatalogued patches).
