I've looked for years to see if Lou Brock was on one, I don't think he is.

I saw Gibson on the top one from 1970 though.

For Dave: 1977 and 1978 Kelloggs Brocks.

On further review, that 1977 scan is Bake McBride. It was from a very small photo copy from Ebay. Randy

I've never seen the box with Brock on it ever in years of ebay searches.

Just wondering if there is any collector value to the 3D card "pictures" that are displayed on the box as advertising. Has anyone seen them cut out and for sale, separate from the actual 3D cards?

The '79s in particular look way nicer than the actual 3D cards themselves.

1971 and 72 box cards recently went for $15 to $25 on Ebay.

There is always some sort of market for that kind of thing, albeit a small one in some cases. I suppose it depends on how unique and hard to find an item is and if it has been accepted as a collectible by the masses.

For my collection, I would take a full box, panel or a single card cut from the box and ideally all three for a complete run. I have a 1980 Garvey card cut from a box as well as a panel (no full box that I can remember), but I guess I didn't scan it, so I don't have a picture handy.

If anyone has it I would like to see a full panel from the Danish Go-Rounds. I have a hacked partial.

Hi Dave, the Brock box that I scanned for you is an un-assembled box with no expiration date on it. I can't remember where I got it. I suppose its possible that it was un-issued. I would think that you would have seen another after years of searching. Randy

Someone was kind enough to find one for me on Ebay, I've seen it before, it has Reggie Jackson on the front, and is fairly common.

So I will add that to the collection soon.

I collect the box cards. They are much tougher to find than the regular issues.

Plus they won't curl up and crack!
