T210 Catchers
 
I'm looking to add some more T210s of catchers with chest protectors.

I have Laughlin and Lucia so far.

I will pay well for nice examples, and have items for trade as well.


Thanks,

Patrick

I love catcher cards! I donned the "tools of ignorance" for three years in high school and loved every minute of it. Good luck in your hunt!

A lot of us old high school catchers around :D

No doubt
 
Gotta love the memories of catching both ends of a double header in 90+ degree heat. Ah... The glory days!

Yessir. I remember ringing out the liner of my skullcap on those days. I also still find more joy throwing out a baserunner than getting a big hit. I'm assuming most of you feel the same way. :0)

How About "Show Your 210 Catchers"
 
Even if they're not for sale at the moment?

It looks like this is turning into a cather's tale!
Back in the day, I pissed off my centerfielder, who was money on the throws to the plate. He a big arm and knew were to put them. We played a team the was very good at the old hit and run and hard nosed as hell (Van, WV), which means you are going to see some action with a contact pitcher on the mound.
In the second inning my guy in center put in three throws high right and had his release pretty much measured up to insure that I was gonna get killed. Sure enough, I took 5 direct hits from the runners in that game. Mr. Center and I also went a round in the dugout during the game after I accused him of getting me killed.
As with all catchers, the bigger the beating and the hotter the weather, the better I hit. That game was the shining point of my days behind the plate (I played second regular, but our catcher had bad wheels and a scholarship, so I ended up getting a lot of work behind the plate to keep him alive)! If only the box score could show the beating I took.
Good luck in the search for T210 mitmen!

How Many Are There?
 
Well, I asked for permission and wasn't denied, so I'm taking the liberty and hope that I'm not stepping on someone else's thread. Besides, I like to show cards and I will want to sell this someday.

Also, I'm curious as to how many 210's depict a catcher with their equipment on.

Thanks for the response.

Here are my only 2 T210s:

Laughlin, Danville and Lucia, Lynchburg


I have seen 4 catchers wearing their chest protectors so far in the T210 set. As far as I know, Lucia is the only one wearing a catcher's mask.

One More
 
Is this the forth you've seen or are there more?

Another T210 catcher
 
The 5th catcher I remember seeing if my memory is correct is Hinninger, Shreveport.

Wow, so are those ALL the catchers in the T210 series'? Impressive, if so!
