I got this card out of a pack at age 11. Lou signed it for me that year. Probably my favorite card in my collection. Sorry David if I stole your thunder, I had it scanned with the '65.

Cool thread...one of my favorites. I remember when he got his 3,000 hit when I was a kid. I think through the Topps years Lou always had the coolest cards...this will be a fun thread to watch!

I remember that too. Of course it was against the Cubs. As I recall, he smote one up the middle and it careened off Dennis Lamp to the 3rd base area.

Only 2 more of him as a Cub - Good times are on the way, hence the slight smile perhaps????? Here is the 64 Jay Publishing - Day pic is 63, Night pic is 64 (or maybe the other way around, I forget).

Bernie Miklasz of the St. Louis Post Dispatch is doing a series of the greatest 5 living Cardinals. Yesterday kicked it off with #5, Red Schoendienst. Today is #4, Lou.

100% with you all on Brock being one of my favorites.

I started a Brock collection where I tried to get every TOPPS regular issue of him.
Well I made it. Set is completed. This was the final card I needed and I got a good one IMO...

They were the first to offer some form of free breakfast with your stay, as they always advertised "Kids eat free".

Conner - nice baseball. Sorry for not posting much the last week. I have been incredibly busy with a variety of things.

Here are some mis cuts and print defects, some are recent pickups, some were posted a while back. I think the 69 topps and 69 All Star are new.

Some more odds and ends from a more recent vintage. I kind of like the retro 78 Donruss look.

Here are a few more miscuts and print defects. I think the 79 Topps is new, and maybe one of the 73 LL cards.

I am now out of stuff to post. I will end this thread over the next 2 weeks with my 10 favorite items in my collection, all of which were shown at some time in this thread.
