Your favorite Postwar -Pre 1980's Cleveland Indians card
 

What Cleveland Indians cards stand out for you? I got this 1974 Jack Brohammer as a kid and still own it. Great sideburns!

1973 Topps Oscar Gamble.

Low-level Topps employee: "Gamble got traded to Cleveland. We need a new photo."

Boss: "Just airbrush the one we've got."

LLTE: "But he's in a full Phillies uniform, it's obviously Riverfront Stadium, and there are three Reds players in the shot."

Boss: "Just take the 'P' off of his chest. No one will notice."

LLTE: "Yes sir."

Followed closely by Gamble's 1975 Topps, which shows The Afro in nearly as much glory as the 76 Traded.

Check out the latest Beckett Vintage Collector magazine, there's a cool article about air brushing classic cards.

Here's another neat Indians card.

This one

I've never seen that card. Who is it?

1950 Bowman Bob Feller

I was torn between these two, so I chose both. :)

Too many to count
 

I have to go with the two players/cards that sparked my life-long collecting interest in Cleveland Indians baseball cards and memorabilia. This was my team and those were my heroes as a kid.

A favorite player's greatest season. Easy-peasy.

That is a striking portrait of Rosen. Beautiful card.

Thanks. I am working on a run of all Al's cards, signed.

I always thought this one was very pretty.

1952 Bowman
 

One of my favorites from the second year of my collecting obsession - at nine years old, I had heard of WWII, but knew almost nothing of the players who participated in it. Later became a fan of guys who sacrificed as much as Lou.:)

Working on a Oscar Gamble master set from his playing days. This is one of my favorites.
