Yamakatsu Japanese Baseball Cards

[Jayworld]

Does anyone collect Japanese baseball cards? Specifically Yamakatsu brand from 1978? (They are the heavy stock), full-photo glossy cards.

It looks awesome..need to send in for grading.
I posted it in the Vintage March pick-ups

Sorry to bump an old thread, but does anyone on the forum collect the Yamakatsu brand Japanese baseball cards from 1978 specifically? I was able to win several (about 20) on eBay last year, but none have surfaced since then.....

Bumping an old thread. WOW.

Anyone on the forum collect Japanese baseball cards?

I'm down to just two cards for the 1978 Yamakatsu set:

Shibata
Kinugasa

I do more japanese magazines but run across cards what 2 do you need will see if can track them down.

As listed above, I need the Shibata and Kinugasa cards. From the 1978 Yamakatsu (JY6) set.

Thanks for any help!
