A modest vintage pile from the Sportlotsbox. A few names in here I forgot that I bought, which is super lovely when you're just expecting commons. No shade to commons, though. Where would we be without em?
Names up top for ya. Manny Sanguillen with his trademark glove. It took half a heifer to get all that leather, they say. Robin Roberts isn't talked about enough among the all-time greats. 86 WAR puts him over Pedro, Fergie, Moose, Verlander, Kershaw, and Nolan Ryan, to name a few 80+ guys. And I now see why the '67 leaders card was like 37 cents. Fine by me.
Will we bring back coaches cards or do we need that space for a 5th or 6th base set Ohtani? I know the answer.
60's Topps sets coming along nicely. Doing the worst on '63. People love this set, apparently, because I don't see em often. P.S. if you have a spare #537, I'll trade ya, like, 50 Chrome Refractors for it.
'69 and '70 mostly high-number stuff, which I think we've all calmed down about, in terms of pricing.
'71 and '72 semi-high numbers. Or whatever the designation is. I'll never ever spend the money required to finish the '72 set, so I'll be happy to finish the first 6(?) series. I have all the Reds highs and a few rogues found in busted-up condition, but yeesh people pay primo money for those.
One more name to close it out. The underpants guy!
Go Redlegs.
