Brooks Robinson and the Baltimore Orioles

[quitcrab]

Very nice post today Mark. Well done! You managed to wish your daughter a happy birthday, thank all that have served to give us our freedom and the posting of those beautiful Topps Stand Ups.
My father passed last year and served in the United States Coast Guard during the Korean War. He is surely missed. He loved the Orioles and scored every game while watching the TV broadcast.
I am a big fan of the Stand Ups and really enjoy finding them. Maybe one of the coolest sets Topps produced in the 1960s
If anyone is looking to unload some stand ups I am your guy !
Happy Memorial Day to all! Happy Birthday to your daughter too !
Scott

Bill,

Hope your son had a great birthday as well! My daughter has a bunch of friends over and we’re cooking out and they are having a great time.

You just keep bringing the alternate jerseys! Love ‘em...

That Cal last Opening Day dugout card is just an awesome item especially with the notations. You have an awesome Ripken collection with so many one of a kind items.

Just love the signed photo AND card of Milt, Jacks and Jerry. So cool to get a photo of a card that was produced and even better to have them signed. Those are just GREAT.

The transparency ultimately came from Topps. I got the transparency from Scott (quitcrab) and I’m not sure where he purchased it from. I “think” it was in a Hunt auction at some point in time.
