Default Uncat Cincinnati Reds issue from 1970?

Posted By: Todd Schultz

I looked in a Beckett Big Book I bought a few years ago, which has a lot of these more obscure team issued sets. Yours are from 1969 David, and there are 28 in the set, which Beckett values at $100 in nm, with commons at $3, Perez at $8, and Bench and Rose at $15.

Beckett shows these Reds sets for 1967 through 1971. Cardenas is in the 1967 and 1968 sets, which are distinguishable by their blue facsimile autos. Interestingly, Bench is listed in the '67 set, which would make that earlier than his Topps rookie, and which would indicate that at least part of the set may have been issued later in the year, as he played in only a couple dozen games, as a late season call-up I believe.
