Nice pick-up. The Seaver is from 1967 and is his earliest "card". In my opinion, it is much more desireable than his '67 Topps rookie. Me likey

Thanks, it is so much rarer than his Topps rookie, took me me a while to find one.

Some other cool cards; lucked into finding the 1959 Mail-In today for $50, and that will probably go to eBay to pay for my entries into Burl's 1952 Set Break.

It still amazes me how many variations there are in the 1952 Topps set. The Campos card seems to have the most variations. How many will be recognized as a commonly accepted variation is anyone's guess.....

Was that a recent purchase, Zach? I was following one on E-Bay not that long ago but missed the closing.

I agree with you, and although I am not familiar with a lot of other sets, I'd say this set likely has the most?

Curious, what's your take on that Rosen card I posted? To me it looks like something was added to the pick (a layover?) before they decided on the final one they'd go with?

Nice card Irv. Yes, this was a recent purchase......I don't know if the '52 Topps set has the most variations - there are certainly a number of other sets with quite a few variations. Maybe others with more experience in the set like Patrick or Ted can chime in.

Re: Campos, there are more variations than collectors realize....
