Jim Wood's Johnny Bench Card Collection

[armyguy545148]

I am searching for to complete my collection.

1968 Uniroyal
1968-70 Jamesway Trucking
1968 Team Postcard
1970/72 Topps Candy Lids
1970/71 Dayton Daily News (70 and 71 stats). I have the All Star Version
2016 Topps Heritage Blue Signature. These cards back to 2016 through 2021 are my latest focus. I have them all for Bench except for the 2016 (Blue Sig).
1980 Cincinnati Enquirer

When I find these items I will consider my collection completed.

I originally had the 67 Team Postcard but picked it up but missed out on the 68 offered at the same time. I recently saw a 70 Candy Lid (PSA 8) that sold for about $950.

I prefer a graded versions but will purchase ungraded. Not sure I can afford above PSA 6 or similar other graded versions.

I will be at National in Chicago at the end of July, Had some good success at the 2019 Convention.

I do not have any Master Sets, although if I had all my cards graded by PSA, I think I would have a very good set. Some of my favorite items from my roughly 300 card collection:

67 Team Postcard
68 Binger Johnny Bench Day Advertisement Card
68 Kahn’s
68-70 Shillito’s (the actual Shillito’s, not the 1976 Kenwood Plaza card called by some graders the 1976 Kahn's Shillito’s)
69/70 Team Postcards (both versions)
70 Dayton Daily News All Star
Gilligan/Bench/Rose card
68 Venezuelan Rookie
70 and 71 Topps Super Square Corner Proofs (blank backs)
71 Milk Duds Complete Box
71 Topps Greatest Moments
74 Topps Deckle Edge (White and Gray back square corner proofs)
74 Topps Puzzle (uncut cardboard and paper proofs)
2016-2021 Topps Heritage (red and blue signatures)

Very nice collection. Not really a “card” but I once owned a Bench cut out from the 1970? Topps Super box. Thought that was a neat piece.
I also like the 71 GM and the full Milk Dud Boxes.
The 71 Bench full bazooka box is a nice piece in my collection along with the full 69 vertical stamp panel.
The candy lid is a tough issue.
Good luck on finding the cards you need !!! Scott

Jim, I dreamt I found a Jamesway Trucking Bench. Maybe dreams can come true. Good luck in your search for the tough ones
