Default 1977 McCurdy's Rochester Red Wings

I've always been one of those guys that has enjoyed collecting minor league sets. I remember when TCMA started putting out sets in the 1970's. At last count, I have around 275 different Orioles minor league team sets. I have the 1980 Charlotte Blue set and someday hope to add the Orange set to my collection. I still can't find the 2006 Choice Ottawa Lynx set anywhere. Dealing with the Lynx was an adventure and a story for another day.

In 1977, McCurdy's Department Stores out of Rochester sponsored a set of 4 sheets of Red Wings players. It used to be fairly hard to find them, but recently I've seen more around and prices all over the place. The cards are standard size when cut out, but I see most still in sheet form. The set contains plenty of guys that played for the Orioles at one time or another.
