1960's Mets Color Postcard ??'s

[andypcl]

I'm wondering if someone could shed some light on these 60's postcards. I don't have a guide that shows these listed. Can anyone help me with the year of issue based on the 4 back variations? And is there a checklist that may be available? I've got 25 different (some of the same player, but different backs).

Thanks,

They are Mets Postcards sold at Shea the Sphan 's are 1965 the Seavers are 67 and 68. I have a graded set of 65's on The PSA registry. And I am interested in the Seaver's.

Thanks for the info Jonathan. Holding onto them for now but glad to identify the years of issue.

They were cataloged in the sports collectors Bible. The 65's have 2 different backs the B&E and the plain. I had a set purchased from Shea in 65 in the original package.

B and E Postcards. The Seaver postcards are his rookie from 1967 - those are the two variations - one with Mets logo - one without. They have increased in value significantly over the last 5 years. REA Auction in Dec 2024 had a PSA 5 go for 725 plus fee.

Thanks for the posts. Of my 25 different, It looks like I have all 3 sets. I was thrown off by the 66' Al Jackson because he was already a Cardinal.
