			Just in from the 'bay, a 1971 Topps Extra Glossy prototype, referenced by Bob Lemke in his Standard Catalog blog a while back:  http://boblemke.blogspot.com/2010/08...fs-are-11.html  You can see the hazing at the top of the card referred to in Bob's post. |

			The '74 Deckle Edge cards exist but are a lot harder to find than the older issues.

|  1974 Deckle 
			
			The 74 Deckle set can be finished 4 different ways...grey back deckle, white back deckle, grey back undeckled proof and and white back undeckled proof. I am 7 white deckle backs short of having it 3 ways. My proof set is mixed. They are tougher than the 69s, but doable. The 69 proof sheets ( from 68) are tougher yet

			Picked these up as part of a collection I bought.  Alot of 85-92 cards, but these were included(the reason I bought it) along with some basketball ones posted.  There were also 7 checklists from the 60s, but I didn't think you guys would want to see those. I wish the Schmidt(or Cey card as my dad says since he is a Dodgers and Cey fan) card was not completely off center. But overall I was pleased to add these to my collection.
