Let's see your Nolan Ryan run / cards

Slightly off the well worn path.

your awesome Ryan collection!! Ryan was a second favorite (to Clemente) for me. I have been working on a run of some of his tougher cards - I have (will try to find/post photos soon) 1968 O-Pee-Chee rookie PSA 6, 1968 Milton Bradley rookie (mid grade), 1968 Venezuelan rookie - low-mid grade (SGC 40??). 1971 O Pee Chee PSA 8 (or 8.5 don't remember), 1975 O pee CHee PSA 8, looking to get the 1973, 1974, 1976 and 1977 O Pee Chee- higher grade to round out the collection. Find the odd ones - much more of a challenge to find/find nice.

Another TI:



A recent addition; looks like a 6 or 7 in hand:



And an oddball 1975 piece:

That ‘71 sure does look under-graded. Much nicer than the 4 on the flip. Makes you wonder what PSA sees that we don’t. I’ve always thought that if you can only see a flaw with a loupe, then they shouldn’t knock it so hard.

Very nice Ryan collection, Jason. Growing up in Houston, he was always my favorite player and the only pitcher I followed on a regular basis for two decades.

My only Ryan card unfortunately...

Actually I have two Ryan cards. Forgot about this baby. In fact doesn’t this ‘74 Topps Ryan action shot look exactly like the ‘75 piece that Adam has above?

One of my favorites

Yep; Ryan had great mechanics throughout his career.

Love the reverse on that '71 O-Pee-Chee, Adam!

Great stuff guys
