I've had my eyes on this trio for awhile, but had not come across well centered examples of all three together until now. Very happy with this trio of Tigers rookies, from the 1978 Burger King Detroit Tigers Set - Jack Morris, Lou Whitaker, Alan Trammell.

Yeah, very cool cards. I think I might look into picking them up for my Hall of Fame collection - two of the three players are worthy of the Hall!

Spent the week putting my collection on Flickr and did some back-filling of 50's-60's stuff. Lot of fun when you put your collection all together like that in one place, I've decided to name it "100 years of baseball 1885-1985" and have each decade represented.

Closed the month by going to a card show today. Only 1 dealer I saw had vintage. About half of the others were new, shiny, autographed, #d stuff, none of which I want anything to do with. The other half were sealed retail wax. Again, nothing I want to deal with.
So I chose to spend my money with the vintage guy. Added a nice Mantle for $40. I know it's not a mainstream Mantle (base regular card) nor in good condition (probably Ex), but for $40 any Mantle from his playing days is a good deal. Also picked up a few 62T stars for the set I'm working on. Paid $15 for the 2 Maris cards and $2.50 for each of the others. I knew I was in trouble when the guy broke out his Beckett magazine to give me pricing. But I stood there and took it like a man, haha. Anyway thanks for the look. ![]() ![]()

Not only do you have Mantle on that card you also have Gibson pitching and two dozen CIA agents in the background keeping an eye on things.

Interestingly, Gibson didn't pitch in game 3.
