1964 Giants are beautiful ! If they were regular size it maybe one of the Topps most collected sets of the 60s. The color, photography, and design are so well done. Let's not forget the backs with another photo of the star and a great write up. the only card missing is Roger Maris. Not sure why he wasn't included.

Thanks Mark. I think Roberto is paired with someone else (Battey?) on a different panel, but I dont have that one. |

I really like his 1968 Topps 3-D, just a great card. One ended on eBay recently for a hefty sum...one of my white whales. Day 198 1963 Topps Peel-Off (Instruction back)... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...uctionBack.jpg |

Day 200
For a while now, I have Been trying to collect Pirates pocket schedules for each year that Roberto played. This has proven to be a somewhat difficult task, especially the schedules from the 1950s & also 1960. I picked up the 1956 in a group lot and was content thinking that this would be the earliest I would get as I had never seen one from 1955. https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...esSchedule.jpg About 8 months later, this popped up on eBay.... 1955 Pittsburgh Pirates pocket schedule https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...ScheduleBk.jpg https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...esSchedule.jpg https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...nte/img743.jpg |

Anyone see the closing prices in Heritage last night
Clemente Rookie PSA 9 - last 2 according to PSA sold for 468K and 478K respectively - last night - 260K
https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c...kedLots-101116 On the flip side an SGC 82 (6.5) sold for a whopping $8400!! https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c...=MyBids-101116 A PSA 8 Yellow letter also sold way below past sales. A few other high grade copies - didn't check them all against previous prices yet Thoughts? |
Hope you realized....

That poster ad looks very cool! |

Clemente RCs have come down from when they were hyped 2 summers ago (as have all the other hyped RCs), but centered copies are still going to bring strong prices. People that bought off centered ones the first half of 2016 are going to get crushed if they sell today. I believe people are looking at those old label cards and realizing that they wouldn't bring those grades today and paying less for them. |

Great poster Mike!!! I saw that one for sale, I made an offer but was declined. Glad to see you ended up with it. I don’t remember where the other full poster I saw Was auctioned at, I just saved a photo of it. Congrats again! Day 202 1971 Topps Super... https://photos.imageevent.com/docpat...ToppsSuper.jpg |

Mike -
Your 1969 Milton Bradley appears to be a 1972. You can tell by the base of the red "1"s. It is much tougher than the 1969 and looks to be in great condition and pretty valuable IMO. Scott |
Good catch Scott

Who is going to the national
Any Clemente guys going to Cleveland? Would love to say hi and talk Clemente for a few. Anyone?
|
I had planned to go this year but just like last year those plans fell victim to reality. Please post any unusual Clemente items you see.

-the '58 wht letter in 9 went for more than recent copies, including the same Slusser copy from two years ago -ditto the '71 in 9, about 30% more than recently -the more easily to achieve 9s came in right around their typical range it seemed to me -the '72 and '73 10s came in more or less along the spectrum of the past couple years as well -the '69 super 10 went for much more than 'recently', though this was the first recorded sale in 2 yrs -to me the real surprise was the '57 T salesman panel, which went for much more than I would have guessed, in part since it has no registry value except bragging rights. True there are only 2 cited publicly, so the scarcity is interesting, but they're sort of ugly IMO, in that they're not 'real' issues, complicated by unrelated non-stars attached, back has nothing to do with the front, and I guess I'll stop there. That said, I bid on it myself, pretty hard, and was very much surprised to be pushed into giving up on it--I just really didn't expect that. And since you asked, my one thought/theory is that there could be a new player in town? |
Oh Michael - no new players - just hardcore old ones
Quote:
There is a board member here who is very knowledgeable about the salesman panels and said that they are selling for a lot less now than they used to - even the Clemente with what I bought it for. To me these things are WAY undervalued and underappreciated - With rare exception there are only 2-3 known of any given panel - rarer than many test issues and just as cool (imo). I picked up the 59 Mantle panel from REA also. I have the 1962 Clemente as well. All the best! Howard |
Nice one

I'm very pleased you got it then, rather than falling into the hands of some of the jerk eBay sellers that grab things, slap a 5x BIN price on them, where they languish forever, essentially leaving collectible circulation---that sort of nonsense drives me bonkers. |
