A year of Lou Brock

Or maybe 5..... Also interesting on the back of the card is that he is described as a "pitchers best friend" in right, with a strong throwing arm, but his reputation most of his career was as a mediocre left fielder.

Cool cards.

A few more pickups over the last 6 weeks

1973 Kelloggs still in the wrapper

1968 Bazooka end panel, I've had the entire panel for a long time, the end panel cut off is hard to find. Thanks Cardinalcollector aka Randy.

1977 scrap with a Lou Brock ghost. It's the 2nd one that I have, almost identical to this one.

Hey Dave, I didn't realize that was you that won the Bazooka Brock. If you have a Brock want-list, you should send it to me. Regards, Randy

Picked this up from Randy. Struck out on the Dodge Challenger, and forgot to bid on the 71 Dayton Daily News......

1973 Candy lid proof

Really like the candy lid proof. I think most of the lid proofs that I have seen were finished backs. Cool that this one doesn't have all of the colors.

I need a full 68 bazooka Brock panel if any Brock collector can help. Thanks Scott

Do you think this may be a ‘72?
