1977 reggie jackson proof

[ALR-bishop]

SCD lists the Jackson and a dozen or so other 77 proof cards that are different in some way from the regular version of their issued card. In one case the player was dropped and does appear in the set at all. An uncut sheet with many of the cards involved on it sold not too long back

There are two players who did not appear in the 1977 Topps set that were on proof cards. Danny Thompson, who died after the 1976 season, and Jerry Grote, who said he was retiring after the 1976 season and Topps mistakenly believed him.

You are correct sir, I didn't know that one existed. Found an image on Google. ETA, I found the original uncut sheet that Willie Davis and Jason Thompson were on for 1977 Topps, and it looks like John Hale of the Dodgers was the card that replaced Richard in between Davis and Thompson.

The Jackson proof card currently at $50K before the BP.

I knew the Jackson will go for big $'s....but wow... I guess I will have to settle for my Fitzmorris Royals Uniform Version...

It's kind of funny Ricky that most collectors would be oblivious to how unique that card is. Great item

Good detective work as usual Cliff
