1978 Kellogg's near set (NM) - ends 11 PM ET Sunday (9/20)

[tschock]

Up for auction is an almost complete 1978 Kellogg's set available. Missing 2 cards for a complete set, #07 Lou Brock and #25 Eddie Murray. Trying to get good photos on more than 1 card at a time doesn't come out very well, and I don't plan on scanning each one, so I will try to describe them best I can below. I have provided a sample of the problem cards as well as a sample of the NM cards to give you a general idea. The vertical lines that show up (Schmidt, Munson) are mainly from the angle of the lighting. Photos taken without flash so they appear darker, but the backs in the photos are bright white, except the Schmidt and Ryan (tanning) so you can see the comparison.

All cards are in NM or better condition with no cracking unless otherwise noted below below. I would guess most of these came from a factory issued set. Almost all cards have white backs, though a few with minor tanning/aging.

Starting bid at $5 with minimum $1 increments. Add $4 for secure shipping in a hard case. Paypal F&F, check, and money orders are fine. US currency acceptable as well.

Auction ends at 11 PM ET on Sunday. 11:00 bid time is fine. 11:01 or later is not and falls under the "Snooze you lose!" clause.

#01 Steve Carlton (3/4" crack near center of card)
