A year of Lou Brock

David W · #1 07-16-2014, 08:43 AM

These last few posts will feature all sorts of "odds and ends". There are hundreds of cards put out by the card manufacturers in the last 30 years, I don't really collect them, unless they look "Cool" or something.

I'm a sucker for flashy colors and cool designs.

Here is an unknown as to date sew or iron on patch, plus the above mentioned Hunters meat stadium give away pin, a random Topps issue, and Sports Design card

One of my favorite "Modern" cards, however "Modern" is defined (and the thread on that is interesting) is the 92 Action Packed card, as well as all the other cards in the set.

Here is the player that comes with that set for playing the recording on the card. We have a member here with a web site where you can access most of the recording from the set

I think this is a cool modern set. Lots of big stars with recreations of their classic cards on sturdy stock...except that Lou got stuck in a Cub uniform. His face says it all

Hi David -
I have a few of those patches - Lou, Reggie, Fisk, Seaver, etc... - I can't remember the company who made them, but I believe they were issued in 1978(ish) and were licensed by the MLBPA, but not by MLB (hence no logos). I think I read once that there are 100 players in the set. They can still be found relatively cheaply, usually $5-10 for stars, and less for the more common players. Hope that helps.

In 1977 KMOX put out this poster to recognize Lou for breaking Cobb's stolen base record.

Here are a few cards designed to replicate old Topps designs. The top right is kind of cool, I think it is a hand painted card. Bottom left is a Dover, bottom right Sports Design.

Little League glove. It's actually bright red, but the picture makes it look more orange.

Yes I did. Those are cool cards, I posted mine a few months back.

Here are some miscellaneous game pieces, postage stamps, and a Cracker Jack stamp.

i believe those are listed as Penn Emblem Patches from 1979.
