I'm now at 450 cards towards a second set! I do need another Carew and Seaver...so...there is that...lol.

Thanks John. I actually didn’t expect this one to happen for a while, but had been on a selling kick of sorts and just extended it to make it work. Especially with graded, this one is going nowhere but up apparently. I figured I had better pickup a raw copy before those go crazy too. There is a podcast somewhere on the ‘67 set where I think Rich Mueller and Jim Beckett are discussing this card, and Rich was recalling being able to buy as many as you could walk away with from bins at Nationals in the late 1970’s for like $2 a pop or something. Too bad I was a toddler at the time...
