Default 1970 Dayton Daily News

If you have plenty of patience, here's a set you can work on putting together, the 1970 Dayton Daily News set. I've been working on this set for years and years. The cards were printed in the newspaper. They were designed to be cut out by kids each day and touted as bubblegum less. There are 13 Orioles in the set and I have found the higher numbers much harder to find. I'm guessing kids got tired of cutting them out over the summer. In fact, I've never seen what the Brooks Robinson looks like.

They also reprinted a couple Orioles in 1971, #5 Frank Robinson and #34 Boog Powell, with some stat changes.

I have 9 out of 13 of the 1970 cards. I'm missing #143 Merv Rettenmund, #154 Brooks Robinson, #157 Paul Blair and #159 Mark Belanger.
