The 1970 set was Bob's second of 6 world series sets that he was involved in issuing. 1967 B&W set, 1970 Fleer, 1971 Fleer, 1974 B&W second printing, 1978 Fleer/Good Humor, and finally the 1980 Fleer Sticker Back set. All of Bob's sets have really generated more interest in the past 10 years or so. The 1967 B&W sets are pretty tough to come by nowadays, and as Al mentions, the 1971-1977 WS cards included in the 1978 set have gotten very pricey as folks have realized how scarce they are, and the Clemente card generates lots of interest due to both the scarcity and the number of Clemente fans/collectors.
I have done lots of research on Bob's issues, but I am still looking for anyone who can point me to a 1978 Fleer/Good Humor pack. From everything I have been able to determine, they were only sold for a short period of time through Good Humor trucks in the tri-state area (NY/NJ/PA) in the summer of 1978.
Always happy to discuss any of Bob's issues or help answer any questions!
Happy collecting!
