Toppcat... Very nice! Thanks for the link to the Fleer Sticker blog... I haven't taken a look at this area lately; appreciate the update! Gotta love the Brooks Robinson Sporting Goods tags!

jmoran19...That's what I'm talking about...pictures! Does anyone know who owns the '68 3D? A friend of mine, I met through the hobby, used to own this test card; I believe that was late 70's, but ultimately sold it. I saw in one of the big auction houses many years ago and like I said earlier went for something like 12K back then... Wonder what it would go for today?!?

I personally tried at this '61 Dice Game, but had to drop out, I just couldn't afford to go any higher than I did. I guess I'll never own one personally, but it is sure nice to see (especially so LARGE!). Thanks jmoran19!!!

The 68 Robinson was pwned by a dealer named Brian ?????? - I believe out of NJ. He dealt in all kinds of crazy oddball and proof stuff. I remember seeing it at his table. Don't know what ultimately happened with it. Have you checked with Larry or Bob to see if they have it?

hcv123... I'm new to this site; I'm unfamiliar who Larry and/or Bob are? I'm assuming big test collectors?

I believe was the dealers name out of NJ (He used to set up at the Willow Grove show among others) - Don't know how much work you want to do on this, but try to look him up and see if he can put you on the trail. As for Larry and Bob, yes both big test collectors. Larry checked in above and obviously doesn't own it. Bob checks the board pretty regularly. Be well.
