I've posted about the set on my blog. The checklist can be found here: 1963 Chicago Tribune Autograph Album

I also went ahead and compiled the checklist for the 1980 Sox & Cubs Scrapbook. That will be posted in a couple of days.

Thanks for posting the 1963 Chicago Tribune Autograph Album checklist, I have all of the 1963, 1977, and 1980 Chicago Tribune Cubs and White Sox photos except for the July 4, 1980 Chicago Tribune Britt Burns and Rick Reuschel page. I can't find the 1963 White Sox set to save my life, but I have them somewhere.

I know these are technically post 1980, but these are from the 1984 Chicago Tribune Cubs Scrapbook set. For years I thought I had a complete set of 32, four sheets of 8 cards issued over 4 different days, which was 31 players and a header card. I was always puzzled why they didn't include Steve Trout, who was their second best starting pitcher that year. When I noticed that DaClyde mentioned that the Chicago Tribune Archives were now online, I figured I would try to find out exactly which days these were printed. I found the four sheets that I have which were printed on September 5, September 7, September 13, and September 19, but lo and behold, there was also a four card half sheet printed on October 2, which included Trout and three other Cubs. So now I have to search for those four along with the July 4, 1980 Chicago Tribune page with the Rick Reuschel/Britt Burns Scrapbook photos.

I absolutely love these types of "cards" and when you say search, I wonder how successful you are in looking for them vs. being lucky enough to stumble upon someone finally listing them for sale. I have a few assorted and regardless of the team or player, wouldn't hesitate to add others to my collection, especially in set form. I had always looked for the 1980-81 Long Beach Press telegram Dodgers/Angels and knew of them through images and/or catalog listings.

Earlier this year, someone listed some Padre newspaper sets from the 80s and in all the time I have been collecting Steve Garvey, I had never even seen or heard of them and then BAM!, 3 new sets appear that I had never seen since their issue in 1983-86 time frame. It leads me to believe there may be a couple other years issues, but still MIA.

Good Luck in your search!

Luckily, I found the four I needed on a Buy-It-Now on eBay a couple of months ago. I still need the July 4, 1980 Chicago Tribune page with Rick Reuschel/Britt Burns.

Cliff,

Man, I love some newspaper cutouts. Those are awesome!

Just so funny to me that the papers give us the lines, or dots, etc. and we still could not cut straight back in the day. None of the newspaper cutouts I have are near straight.

I don't have any of the cutouts that are color, so that makes them even more interesting.

Thanks for sharing...

Al - Did you notice the two errors in the 1973 Topps '53 reprints?

Al Rosen is actually Jim Fridley
Clyde McCullough is actually Heisman Trophy winner Vic Janowicz.
