Thats what i kinda wondered..i remember mine had a more brighter orange back than the original and had someone else on the front tho. Thats why i questioned, as this has Mantle on the front, wondered what the back looked like. Kinda interested to see it.

Hey Chris,

It turns out there was a picture of the back on the ebay listing:



Got this other oddball item today:

It has been a few years now; been seeking one of these centered to pair up with the freak Carew I found last year. Not a pair you see centered every day...

Nice card Matt, that's one great looking 5!

MattyC, Nice pickup on the the Seaver rookie. I think I remember seeing you post the Carew rookie. If I recall the centering on that card was near perfect if not perfect especially for the grade.

Word up-- here's the Rod...

[Yossarian]

Matty C - I have looked/flipped through hundreds of '67s. That Carew is ridiculously centered. Very well done. Did you just happen upon it on E-Bay?

I would love to have this card! Good job!

MattyC- that Seaver is amazing for a 5.

Picked up this Mantle in an eBay side deal. Great looking card and clean sig. I'm absolutely re-addicted to signed cards (first binge was while getting them signed as a kid... still have all those)

Also snagged this Oh as BIN, couldn't resist adding it to my small, but growing Oh collection

I continue to pick up variations, however, one tough variation from the 60s has eluded me for years, unitl now. I finally came across a sharp looking 68 Mike McCormick WL embedded(but pictured) in a lot I ended up bidding on and winning. The lot was a 200 +/- card lot that I bid (knowing this card was included) on Sunday right after the great ebay outage of Sept '14 ended, so I wonder if the outage caused other prospective bidders to miss seeing this card as part of the offered lot?

Just picked up this Mick from Ebay! Could not believe this one was available for a reasonable price. Listed as BIN or Best Offer. I had no problem clicking on the BIN. I did not want someone else to grab this why I was waiting on a Best Offer response.
