Sports Service/Team issues
More team issues:
Jack believes this to be from 1965 - I from 1960: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 1961: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 1964: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 1966: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 1967 - Jack: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 1968 - Jack: http://www.net54baseball.com/attachm...1&d=1534599673 |

1966 Sealed team photo pack
I know there are a lot of questions about the 1966-1971 color issues - while I can't resolve them all, I believe I can shed some light.
This is a sealed 1966 team set |

1971 team set
I have not seen this one around. It is similar to what PSA identifies as a 1971 set, but the coloring is much whiter. This is sealed in the original bag.

1970? 1971?
PSA identifies this as 1971 - It could be or possibly 1970. This is a sealed pack with no year identifier on the back.

This is likely a 1970 autograph card

Familiar images - unidentified
These have slightly different textural , size or cropping differences - I presume them to be various appearance or team issues (except the postcard - no idea there!)

Awesome resource Howard. I recall asking before but we didn't finish the discussion: your sense of why PSA will authenticate/label some of these but not others? Is it just a question of what they can know for sure, and if they are unsure about provenance then the default is to not be willing to slab at all and therefore not include in the master list?

My (not so humble) opinion is
Quote:
Read the forums for a little while and you will see the general consensus on consistency of their qualitative grading as well. I've gotten stuff back from them and just shake my head sometimes - items that are solid nrmt - come back with a 4-5 grade. For selling - they are a necessary "evil". For collecting they are a choice - I chose to work on a registry set because I got bored with so little to look for. I am not looking to get 100% complete on it. I have complete bazooka boxes from every year (but 1960) - I don't care about the panels (except 71 numbered) or singles. I will not even send in my 68 or 71 boxes as PSA will bend a flap to fit into their holder!! Why they do what they do? Because people like me keep sending them money to do it |

The Jay Publishing from 1955-1957 just say "Pirates". From 1959-1965 The Jays say "Pittsburgh Pirates". The Sports Service/Team issues started in 1960 or 1961 and only say "Pirates" - that's the easiest way to tell the difference between the 2 - narrowing down the year - that took a LONG time!

Love the team issue and Jays! Please post again when you get them back from PSA. I think these are under appreciated, but I really like them. Is the postcard a Jim Rowe? The writing on the back looks similar to the one’s I have. |

I think that is a 1971 issue. I purchased series A and B individually in sealed packs. I later purchased the undated Blue card from a collector who was breaking up a complete set. His set did not have the Series A and B checklists. He claimed to be the original owner and that they were purchased as a complete set without the checklists.

It's funny seeing "Manuel Mota" on there. In my entire life I've never heard him called anything other than Manny Mota, so it just made me chuckle.

Man, that is a cool looking McCarthy postcard. I think I’ve seen two varieties of these postcards of Roberto. Do you know how many McCarthy postcards there are of Clemente, or is it just the two?

I scrolled through all 70 of the pages of this thread. I did not see one of these pins posted. I purchased two Clemente pinbacks the other night. My suspicion that one was home made unfortunately was confirmed on the memorabilia side. This one looks right to me. However I was posting it here to determine if anyone has seen another of these pins. Thanks!

Sorry about the pins Mike, hope you aren't out too much. If you bought them off of eBay, you can probably get a refund. There are a lot of fantasy pins of Roberto out there. They really didn't issue a lot of pins of him during his playing days.
Day 253 I don't go to many shows these days. But back when there were small card shows every weekend, a seller had a box full of magazines. I found these and they look like they were right off the newsstand. 1972 Baseball Yearbooks... |
