I didn’t even know about the Venezuelan cards when I was younger and even when I first started to collect Brooks, I was unaware of their existence. Sometime along the line I saw them and of course had to try to acquire the Brooks examples.

Mark,
That's a pretty nice looking Venezuelan card of Brooks. We are lucky that most of the Venezuelan sets contain at least one Brooks Robinson card.
I'm slowly working on the 1968 set, but haven't found the Brooks card, at the price point and condition, I want to pull the trigger on yet.
I have picked up the Brooks Robinson All-Star and Orioles team card.
