Robert nice score on both T.W. and S.M. How long was the wait? Both of those cards look great for the grade.

It had actually been a few months since I had picked up anything other than a few commons for the '41 Play Ball set I have worked on here and there. I have decided to just focus on star cards for a while. I sold some stuff off and got redirected and bought those two. Thanks for the feedback.

All very nice cards, Gentlemen.
Nothing makes my monthly budget fly out the window faster than perusing this monthly thread.

Was a great mail day for me today. Got the 3 1966 Topps cards with print offsets and several Wanderlei Silva MMA cards from COMC today. Also got a 1966 Bob Heffner Purple tree error version. A cool miscut 1973 Willie Mays., a1952 Bowman Bill Werle missing W error version. A 1957 Topps Ted Williams in the new PSA holder.

It is the first new PSA holder I have seen. It is within millimeters of being the exact same size/style as the GAI holders. It should help stop tampering but as a PSA hater now it will be much harder to rescue poor Ted from imprisonment.

1962? Kansas City A's 4x5 Team Issued Cards?

I have been collecting Kansas City A's for years, but I came across a group of cards I have never seen, nor can I find any information about them. They measure 4" x 5" and have a glossy finish. They are blank backed. From the players I have, I would surmise they are from 1962 and probably team issued, similar to a picture pack. Anyone have any info about these? I am guessing they must be pretty scarce.

Very neat A's item I have never seen those before, great pick up! This is the first time in quite a while I have added anything to my collection that fits here. This one came in the mail today. It was obtained from another forum member. It's an uncut sheet of 1972 Roberto Clemente Fan Club membership cards issued by the Daily Juice Co. Thanks Rob D.

Hey Joe, I worked in sports information for many years, this looks like a set of player ID photos sent to each media outlet at the start of each season. They would then be used with out of town game stories and player bio type articles? Just a guess.

A's Pictures
 
Thanks Mike and Mike for your responses. If that's what they are, that would explain why there aren't many around.
