and a couple of cards I once traded for on a playground way back in the day

Thanks, Neal. I worried the bio portion on Ted's achievements looked a slightly different color (bluer?) than the rest of the text. Would love to be wrong!

Picked up another one of these cool 1971 Topps Greatest Moments cards (and a HOF'er to boot)...

A tough card for my 52 Topps collection.

Spider wrinkle lower left that is more pronounced in the scan but it was at a price I couldn't refuse.

Darren that's a beauty! That issue is tough to find nice centered examples.

Recent REA pick ups. The proof joins my set, the Stargell will remain a loner as I decided that set is beyond me

Nice. I'm also doing the '67 set. My Colavito (raw) was probably in the EX range, but way, wayy OC top to bottom - like 97/3 or something. I eventually sold it figured I'd pickup a better centered one later. You are right it's tough to find that card well-centered at all. I still sold mine for more than I paid for it because '67 highs - and particularly that card - seem to sell like hotcakes.

What's strange about it, Lou, is that the photograph is an optical illusion. We all know that Bunning was always a thin man on the mound, but because of the billowing shirt and the stands in the background sorta morphing into his waist area, he truly appears to be an overweight middle aged man!!
