Mexican Magazine - Hit (Brooks Robinson)

[Mark70Z]

Brian,

Thanks for the picture of the Mays/Aaron to give me a better idea of what it may look like. Does yours have another player pictured on the back cover? Also, do you know if there's a listing somewhere which describes who is on each of the magazines. I noticed that each one has a specific issue noted on the cover.

Any information would be great...

There was also a magazine named Superhit published in Mexico. I don't own this magazine but here is one with Blass on the cover.

I have one called Beisbol as well (had a Garvey centerfold poster). i'm sure there are several different magazine titles available if you can find them.

Curt,

Do you happen to know if Brooks was pictured on any of Beisbol mags? Also, was Garvey featured on the front/back covers?

Every once in a while a US issue magazine, pamphlet, insert etc. will surface that I've never seen before, but the foreign issues are even more cool to me (even though I can't read them

I have not seen a mexican cover with Garvey and I don't know anything about the periodical other than the copy I have. It would be cool if there were some collectors from Mexico who could provide additional information on these types of issues.

With the internet, message boards and blogs so prevalent, it seems more information would surface, but it seems slow to come.

Wonder if the issue w/Blass on the cover is from '71? Figure they would have an issue which highlights the WS.

I've seen the Superhit magazines, but have never seen one w/Brooks pictured. I wonder if it was Superhit at first and then turned into just Hit? I'll need some education on these issues I guess...

I believe that, at least w/the Hit issue, the magazine has a player picture on both the front and the back cover. If so, I'd like to know what the other player is that is pictured so I can search for this as well.

Thanks for the help with the search.

Hi Mark,

Nothing on the back of the issue I posted but a Don Q Rum Ad.
I'm unsure of a checklist, unfortunately. I checked my stockpile, too, and found one other issue with Mays on in from 1973 - the $10 variety that Curt posted.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Brian
