Well, I almost gave up on the 1967 MLB set this summer and came real close to selling, but I changed my mind and stuck with it and with the addition of these four pictured below, I have now reached the century mark. 50 cards to go to completion.

So youre the person who outbid me on that Swoboda. LOL

I recently bought a lot of six 1968 Venz Phillies. These are the 3 I'm keeping:



Very excited about the Allen. The White is a dupe, but it's an upgrade over my current PSA Auth. None of the 3 have any paper loss or glue residue on back.

Dan, congrats on the Allen. Great card!

Yup. I know it's kind of a tough card, but because of the condition I didn't figure it would end up that close to my max. Guess I was wrong. $69.00 for a final price. With prices like that, it's looks like it's going to be a long haul to close out the 50 I'll need to complete the set.

There are 4 Mets in the 1967 set, Ken Boyer is easily found, the other 3 (Ed Kranepool, Tommy Davis and Swoboda) are real tough. The search continues.

I've missed out on snagging Kranepool at least 2 or 3 times on Ebay. Since I started the set several years ago, I don't recall ever seeing the Tommy Davis come up on Ebay.

Believe it or not, a Davis sold about 6 months ago fora BIN of $10, I just missed it and it was the only one Ive seen in 5 years on ebay.

I bought my Kranepool for $40 from the same seller as the Swoboda,

I have precious few but this one is probably my favorite:

Only $10! Now that stinks.

If any of you Vene collectors pick up or have any Brooksie's available in PSA4 or above please let me know. I'm looking to upgrade if I have an opportunity.

Really enjoy this thread by the way!
