The standout of the group is the Clemente rookie - the exact card that I begged and pleaded my mom to get for me at 13YO. $5 was a lot for a card back then - the $48 she layed out was incomprehensible! It began a lifelong quest for Clemente cards and memorabilia!
The Giant Stand Up - well, it's a giant stand up and a memory attached to a collection that was passed from 1 Clemente Collector (Ron Gordon) to another - me! The 58 Kahns - again - a memory of the first one I didn't buy because I didn't know how rare it was at the time and a reminder that with patience most things come around again! The 67 Venezuelan - a card I bought from John R. - John introduced me to Venezuelan cards back at the Philly show in Fort Washington in the 90's. I "visited" the card for about a year before pulling the trigger as John wanted considerably more for it than most of the rest of the Venezuelan's he was selling. The 1960 Bazooka box - the culmination of an intense 30+ year search just ended a couple of years ago! Only known example and the last piece to my complete run of Clemente Bazooka boxes. The Clemente rookie would be the hardest to sell, but for $5Mil - I'll personally deliver them to your door. The way I've been saying it for years is - there is no card/collectible I own that in theory does not have a price - just quite a few that no one in their right mind would offer enough to tempt me.

![]() I could understand the box as it is the only one know, although singles and panels of that Clemente are easily found. The other 3 cards have sold on eBay within the past year or so. Your Kahns and Venezuelan are beautiful high grade examples for those issues. |

The OBC guys gave me this one because they knew I liked it. A very nice and generous gesture.

I won't ever sell this one. Sure, some day I'd like to upgrade it to a full copy, but I won't sell it. It's been my favorite pre-war card since the day I saw it. Just wish I would have snapped up the SGC60 for $200 back in 2006.
