I've almost finished that set (18 cards to go) and I swear that Topps farmed the cutting of those sheets out to some random 3rd grade art class.

I've built sets from the '50s to the '80s and I guess I'm really on a sliding scale being a bit more lenient with the older/more expensive cards. I realize that may be opposite of some folks that...

Two thoughts on the '61 Covington (which is a fav of mine also):


The more lumber on a card, the better
I wonder if any of the bats on that card survived until today

I believe that is a two-seam (or sinking) fastball. Forefinger and middle finger are not far enough apart to be a splitter.

Was glad to scoop this up on the 'Bay. Tough Dormand PC (with postal cancellation) that I believe has been addressed in his hand.

And congratulations on the several nice cards above, fellas.

In addition to being the Hit King, I am of the opinion that Pete was also the 'Auto King', in that he signed more autographs than any other ballplayer during his lifetime.

Recent return from SGC. I thought the Yount would probably be a grade higher than the Brett, but certainly not this much disparity. And I used a 10x loupe to inspect the cards before submitting.

Not by a long shot. Unless today's card is a 'hit', then it is immediately relegated to the junk pile. And even if it's a 'hit' when the pack is opened, many of those will be junk in a short time.

If you are looking for prime production in those years, Schmidt doesn't fit either. His career didn't really start until 1974. But I still like him.
