Net54baseball.com Forums - 1973 Topps #280 Al Kaline 'Band Aid' Variations for Trade

I have a few 1973 Al Kaline 'Band Aid' variations available for trade. Have to keep at least one of them for my set, but willing to talk about trading one or possibly more of the others.

Apparently 'Mr. Tiger' bonked his forehead during spring training and got a boo boo. :rolleyes: He ended up sporting a bandage on a small number of cards before the glamour police at Topps decided it was just too much to bear and decided to pretty Al up by quickly airbrushing it away.

These suckers are extremely hard-to-find!!! Take a look at what the last one SOLD FOR on ebay (not mine), an ungraded, way off-centered example…

Yowza!!!

If you have any questions, need better pics/scans, etc., shoot me a PM.

I am always very interested in these:
• HOF'ers in nice shape from the 50's and 60's, graded or ungraded
• Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle, Sandy Koufax, Jackie Robinson, Ted Williams & Roberto Clemente cards
• Tough to find errors and variations from the 50's through the early 70's
• 1971 Topps Greatest Moments
• 1964 Topps Stand-Up HOF'ers (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1961-67 Topps high numbers and SP's
• 1963 Fleer BB stars and HOF'ers in high grade
• 1953 Bowman Color BB (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1954 Bowman HOF'ers
• 1954 Red Heart BB (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1968 Milton Bradley HOF'ers
• 1972 Topps high numbers graded 9 or above (could possibly use some to fill holes in my FT thread)
• T-206's or other pre-war cards (possibly)
• I could also be open to a wide variety of other stuff. LMK what you have.
