Day 128 (May 7, 2020 – 128)
The 1964 Wheaties Stamps were a 50-stamp release and measure approximately 2 1/2” x 2 3/4”. The set was designed to lead up to the 1964 All Star Game at Shea. They used a picture of Brooks in a batting pose with the cool looking Oriole bird on his sleeve.

Does anyone happen to have the Wheaties Major League All-Star Baseball Player Stamp Album? I know I don’t…
Keeping with the same year, in 1964 Topps Stand-Ups were another great set consisting of 77 cards. They are blank-backed and unnumbered cards. They were meant to be punched out which allows them to stand on the green base, but the majority (possibly all) of collectors desire them unpunched.
Mike (Baseballcrazy62) is doing a 1964 Topps Stand-Up autograph chase. At last count he was at thirty-seven cards in the set signed. I don’t have an autographed Brooks example, but he does; quite nice.
