Talk about rabbit trails. I had to go pull all my 67T Frank Robinson cards, and yep, the first name is high and outside on every one.

And on another note, I went to the LCS yesterday to get supplies, and they had a new case set up for a new consignor. So of course I had to buy some random cards. Here is the best of them.

Went to a card show in St. Louis today. It was my first show in about five years, and I cannot believe how well attended it was. I have sort of been messing around with completing a third 1973 set, the first year I started collecting. Picked all of these up for $200, including this awesome complete set of blue team checklists. In great condition and unmarked. I had always been interested in them, but hardly ever saw them. I asked the dealer what he would take for the complete set, and he gave me a great price. Glad I went! PS. Still no idea how you guys upload pics to this site.

I was hoping the "roll eyes" emoji would give me away, but mine is exactly the same as yours plus a little Photoshop trickery. I apologize for any misunderstanding.

Two things I am not good at:

1) Photoshop
2) Understanding internet emojis

Well played, Bob!

Love that Nagashima card

I've always been intrigued when I hear of ML players who collect (or collected ) cards. Even more when it's a star, even still more when it's a HOFer collecting another HOFer.


Gary Carter played 17 games against Tom Seaver. 7Wins-10Losses

9 for 60 with one homer, 4 RBIs and a stolen base.

They were All-Star teammates in '75 & '81, but never battery mates.

I had to get this one - arriving today:

Oh man, he was young I see. Died of brain cancer at 57. I was living overseas in 2012 so I didn’t recall this. Thank you for letting me know.
