Nice group, including the one showing Mantle hitting a clutch home run while at the same time missing a Gibson fast ball

Shame on you, Al, for questioning the eyesight of the highly objective photo editors at the T.C.G.C.

A fellow board member saw one of my previous Joe Torre pictures, and so he offered this trade (incidentally, that was my first trade with a total stranger).

A 1950-70s (guessing ~1966?) Van Heusen Joe Torre. In my Standard Catalog (2009 version), this card is not even known to exist in the checklist. I was very excited to add it to the Joe Torre collection!!!!!

In case the added background (not much!) is useful, here is the Standard Catalog 5th Ed (2015) on the Torre.


And here is Beckett.

Even the merge of the two checklists is incomplete in that eBay is also showing a signed Nellie Fox for sale.

Would love to see what the Hank Aaron looks like.

Thanks!

Picked these Clementes up yesterday. The 3D's I'm not sure about. They don't look or feel modern. I like them and think they are legit. The other two seem to be cut from a package/product. I know I've seen the B&W pose before and the other one looks the same colors as a milk dud.
