1958 Hartland Baseball Figure Collection

[UKCardGuy]

That's a great pickup.

Some useful info is available here. Whiteymet is the best expert for all things Hartland.

The statues with the lowest production runs are the rarest. Groat and Colavito are the hardest to find. But generally I've found those where the player is in a twisted pose can suffer from separation at the seams. I found it harder to find a good Colavito than Groat.


Heres some quick production stats for you:

Production Runs
Statue Production Dates Number Produced
Hank Aaron Statue 1958-60 150,000
Luis Aparicio Statue 1960-63 100,000

Oh wow - What kind of value would my Rocky have? Figure / Tag / Box

[Jay Wolt]

John quite the awesome pickup! Congrats!

[CW]

Nice pickup, John! Instant collection.

I didn't know much about these, but definitely learned a lot from Mark (Net54 member perezfan) and Bart's YouTube channel, The Stuff of Greatness.

Thank you!

I'm surprised by some of these numbers. It doesn't seem possible that there are as many of Luis Aparacio as Nellie Fox, as many of Roger Maris as Warren Spahn, and as many of Harmon Killebrew as Duke Snider.

Agree. I also would’ve thought the numbers for Williams and Spahn would be flipped… Williams with 100K and Spahn with $150K. You just see so many more Spahn statues.

Wonder if those production numbers have been verified. Even less believable are the numbers for the Dallas Hartlands. You see Cobb all the time, yet they say only 45 were ever made. “The Confrontation” lives up to its rarity, as does Feller (kind of). Anybody here know how many Fellers were actually produced?

Super interesting topic!

[UKCardGuy]

It's certainly possible. I'll try to dig out the website where I got the info from.

But I think its also possible that the Williams statues were handled more and less of them survived.

I wonder how Rare my Rocky is Box / Tag

[jcmtiger]

I collected the oriiginals in the 80’s. Groat was the last pickup. Collected the new ones in the 90’s. Never collected the boxes. Kept them for many years. When I moved to Florida all the Hartlands. Also collected the western figures too. Only 2 left Hartlands Cobb with box, and Southland Cobb.

[Moonshot Moose]

Any thoughts on Rockys Rarity / Valule with box and tag?

[Kenmarks]

For the Colavito item, it’s in the $700-$750 range

[Moonshot Moose]

Even with the box and tag?
