I think the
1967 Laughlin World Series black and white set is a fantastic oddball offering, and I'm seeking out anyone interested in trading or selling them. To be clear, I'm looking for the cards that have
Laughlin's address on back, not the later additionally printed/reprinted (with the address removed) versions.
My main focus is to upgrade many of my cards, and I have a boatload of them in pretty nice shape to trade. Plus, I have a bunch of graded star doubles - Ruth, Mantle, Gibson, Ford, DiMaggio, etc.
***If you have any to trade or sell (graded or ungraded), please give me a shout, and check out my bucket to see the other sorts of things I have available for trade.

Edited to add:
I am also a
glue fool (the first step is admitting you have a problem
). Mr. Laughlin was concerned about the thickness of the cards he was mailing out, so he glued the printed sheets on top of each other to double the thickness. So these 'throwaway' cards can be found with thick, long-dried brownish/yellowish adhesive on the fronts with clean backs, and on the backs with clean fronts, so a pair of them together makes a whole card. Hope that makes sense. Here's what the long separated glued pairs look like. Each card has one of its sides slathered in paste...

So, if you have some of those, PLMK, as I'd like to eventually have a full set of the separated pairs, too.
Thanks.
