So I took this photo, and I have kept it for the last 33 years. Thought it might be cool to try and have him sign it sometime...


Now that's pretty damn cool.

I made a big trade with another Yaz collector. The key for him was getting my 71 team issue PSA 9 and sending me his PSA 6. The key for me was landing this next card. I've wanted to own it for a long time and never thought I'd ever own a copy in this high of a grade.

Here were the other really key cards I landed:

The 68 Venz helps both my Yaz and Venz registries. I usually don't show back damage on my Venezuelans, but I thought this one was kind of cool. Some of you know that most of these cards were glued into albums. Here you can see remnants of that album and still make out some of the Spanish words.

Here are some other really good cards I got in the trade:

I like that the Burger Chef disc isn't oversized like most of the MSA discs.

Some OK cards:

http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...0OPC%20Yaz.jpg

And finally these last cards are just set fillers, all of which I plan to upgrade eventually:

Great cards and premiums posted so far! Here are a few Yaz items that I do not think have been posted yet (along with others that might have been as I did not check the thread as thoroughly as I probably should have).

Was waiting for a thread about Yazawa.

Thanks Alan, those are awesome! I only have 3 of them. I have an Atlantic Oil Tony C, but not the Yaz. Can you identify the first one? I've seen them on eBay but none of the books have helped me figure out who issued the postcards and when.

aelefson 03-13-2017 01:48 PM

The first one is actually blank backed and I have never been able to figure out its origins. I believe I posted about it on here years ago and I also have a brief memory of corresponding with either Dave Hornish or Bob Lemke regarding another example (if so it would be on their respective blogs). Regarding any you do not own, please email me at aelefson@hotmail.com and we can discuss things.
