Paul...what is the story behind that 68 Seaver color separation? Never seen it before.
|
Awesome Seaver's Paul, and to top it off that is only the second example of the 25 cent Puzzle envelope I have ever seen. I dabble in cards with Seaver in Mets regalia and pick things up as I find them but you are really finding some esoteric items.
|
The 68 Seaver came from the Topps Vault. Notice that he is pitching left handed. I think that is why Topps chose to go with the boring portrait instead of this much nicer picture.

A pair of Exhibit test pieces:
http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...comparison.jpg On the left is a Mays proof. http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...all%20card.jpg A Salutations Holmes proof. The white borders are far beyond the normal card edges. I love this newspaper issued 1960 Koufax: http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...r%20Koufax.jpg Hallicrafters Lemon and Rosen premium: http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...osen-Lemon.jpg After years of research I was finally able to pin down these nearly square smaller paper premiums: http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...0publicity.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...0publicity.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...0publicity.jpg 1955 All American Sports Club. Here is an interesting cabinet-sized version of the 1969 Shindana Ali card, next to the as issued card: http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...0large%201.jpg I say prototype or test because some of the cards have art that is different than the art on the as-issued cards. |

I just picked up this Bench photo card. Can anyone help with identifying its origin?

Some great stuff in this thread! A couple of favorites from my Gary Carter collection:
1976 Red Path full sugar packet, it's got a stain on the front but it's one of the very few full packets I've ever seen. I also have an uncut sheet of these. 1978 Burlington Free Press newspaper card |
That Carter sugar packet is crazy cool!!!!
