Need help identifying a 1965 card. Possibly a salesman sample?
2 Attachment(s)
I’m in the process of researching a 1965 Topps baseball card (with Don Blasingame on the front) that has been tucked away in a binder that I've owned for 40+ years. Not really sure where it came from. I’m doing this because I’m currently liquidating a good portion of my collection and I want to know what exactly this card is. To the best of my knowledge it’s a salesman/promo sample but I haven’t found another card (yet) that features the same background. Anybody have any thoughts?

Yes indeed. (Image cred to Anthony) just as a note, I believe 1965 samples are one of the toughest years of any 50s/60s topps samples.

Very cool. Never seen one of those before….. pretty unique sample back for the 1965s

Here is my contribution to the 1965 salesman sample conversation. The front is Al McBean.

1965 Topps Salesman
I knew of 4 salesman samples. These were: (1) Haddix-Maxvill-Howard, (2) Knoop-Conigliaro-Lee, (3) Herbel-Gibbon-Charles, and (4) Salmon-Thomas-Rollins.
The back you posted makes the McBean part of a different sample. This sample is most likely: McBean-Camilli-Wilson |
1965 Topps Salesman Panel
Thank you everyone for replying. Based on the images that I'm seeing above the Don Blasingame card that I shared is part of a three-card panel. Al McBean is one of the other two players, but the identity of the third remains unknown. It would be nice to see the front of the photo that showed the back of the panel. Also, if it's a graded panel is there a cert #? Just curious. Thanks again.

Front of the panel I sent (via pm request). Again image cred to Anthony Nex he is the owner. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...d245063ede.jpg

I think it is unlikely that McBean is part of a salesman sample with Blasingame. Blasingame is on the row with Harper, Koonce, Knoop, Conigliaro etc. while McBean is part of the row containing AL strikout leaders, Camilli, Wilson, etc. Attachment 665629 |
