Really a neat item Carlton.

And you certainly do have a disorder, but it is one shared by several folks around these parts

Speaking of 1968 Topps, any ideas on why Topps did not include a team card for all of the teams for this year? Leaving out two popular teams from the north east area, and one popular team from the mid west does not make a lot of sense as these two areas were (are) two of the stronger regional areas of collectors. I can understand why the Astros were not included as there were apparently licensing issues with the team name (and logo). But why were the others excluded?

What is this disorder you speak of? He seems perfectly normal to me

The lack of yellow tint in these two circles has bothered me since 1970.

I tell my patients the difference between obsessive compulsive personality and disorder is that the latter affects relationships and might include too much spending.

So yes, Al, most people on this board and diehard variation collectors could use 20 mg of paroxetine.

My scan comes across very dark orangey, but in person both of these cards jump out for their yellowness as compared to the other cards on the page. The Colavito has the same miscut as the example in this thread. I believe these both may be Milton Bradley cards, but I am brand new to this game. Carlton and Al, what do you guys think?


After further thought, the scan really hides the true color features, so I added this new scan. For the sake of comparison, here are the same 2 cards bookending a non-Milton Bradley Seaver card:

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Default Nice MBs

Above average condition MBs, very nice. This set is horrible for centering, like the Colavito. If that Stottlemyre is a 6 then it is a really nice card. It would stand as the second best one graded to date (PSA: 3 5s, one 6, one 7; Beckett one 6). Considering it passed through the hands of an 8 year old...

Default 1968 mb gibson card

Strange card from my 1968 Topps Milton Bradley autograph collection. However, I do not know if the autograph is original or autopenned.

Definite MB, look at the white border at the bottom. The back is yellow and definitely an MB.

The color looks washed out. I have a few other MBs that look like this.

Saw this in a shop in the 90s and snatched it immediately. It has not been exposed to the sun. Welcome any and all comments!

Carlton, IMO (and w/o card in hand), it appears to not be signed by Gibson himself. Very neat card though.
