1983 Topps Tommy John Yankees variation. Can't be too many of those out there...

Ricky---what is the John variation ? The proof card of him as Yankee ?. Hope the forum police from the main board do not get mad at us about cross forum posting :-)

here is a tough proof...Martin versus Howser as Yankee manager. Sorry about poor scan

The 1949 Lummis Peanut Butter Phillies has to be one of the rarest post war sets, and I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned in this list.

In 15-20 years, I've seen perhaps one example of most players from the set -- but check auction catalogs, VCP, etc. -- these cards simply do not turn up in any way, shape or form

Hi Al, yeah I meant the Tommy John Proof Card... where he's shown as a Yankee instead of the Angels.... I think I saw one on sale once a few years ago...but since then..nada...

Has anyone mentioned the 1967 Asland Maloney card? Here's some history on it. http://boblemke.blogspot.com/2009/09...shland_12.html

Anyone have a picture of the Mazeroski card? I've never seen one of those.

For whatever reason the Bill Mazeroski and the Ron Santo are rarer than the others, I'm still looking for a Santo.

I would love to own a 1952 Indianapolis Clowns Hank Aaron PC ...

1968 Mays Plak was listed at the beginning of this thread - Does someone here own or have a picture of it? Larry? Awesome thread - glad it got revived

Anyone know or want to speculate why the 1958 Kahn's set is so darn difficult compared to any of the other sets 1957, 1959, etc?

Thanks for the image. Where did it come from? I couldn't even find one on google.

I'll check if I have an extra Santo....

1976 Jerry Jonas Productions & 1960-61 Dodgers Frito Folders, although a few more have surfaced as of late.

How about the 1969 Rawlings Promo card of Brooks Robinson? I have only seen one... The Reggie card seems a little more common.
Anyone have any ?

The Mays Plak is pretty awesome Larry. I mean it is as butt ugly as all the others, but still pretty awesome

I haven't seen another as well; just the one in your collection. I've seen a Rawlings Mantle and Jackson, but that's it.

Curt mentioned the VERY TOUGH and little known ( even though they are in the SCD Standard Catalog) Jerry Jonas set.

I know of a set that could be available. If interested PM me.

Sorry photo is upside down. Hope someone can correct it for me.

I have no idea who issued this card, but I also doubt there are any others. Matty Alou only played for Escogido in the 1958-59 offseason. Also on the Escogido team with him were a young Willie McCovey and Juan Marichal, who both theoretically probably have cards from this issue too:
