It's funny how they used a reversed short-brimmed Brooksie image for the basis of the 'Shtick Figure' on that box.

Philadelphia Football 1964 - 1966. Still looking for 1967.

My 1960 Leaf boxes...both series. An unopened marble pack that was inserted in the packs is shown with sample wrappers and cards...I have completed Series 1 but not Series 2.

Part of my run of 1951-2000 box and wrapper collection.

Here are my 1952, 1954 and 1955 Bowman boxes to fill in the holes to complete a 50 year run of at least one box from 1951-2000.

Keeping with the Fleer theme, here are the Fleer Baseball boxes from 1969 through 1976. Still trying to track down the 1969 and 1970 Baseball Patches boxes.

I spent the summer of 1975 on a lake in Upper Michigan, and all the corner store had available were minis. I've always liked them, and I think the 1975 box is one of the better designs. I believe the pitcher pictured is Hank Webb. The 1976 box you posted is a curious one — why is Brook Robinson batting left-handed, and why did he wear such a short bill on his batting helmet?

Didn't Brooksie wear a short bill for awhile by choice? I can visualize him wearing it at bat because I remember it looked so weird!

It was on full display in 1975. That's why I brought it up in post #51. The Topps art department just grabbed his '75 pic and did a reversal on it for the boxes. Pretty funny...

Great thread and some great displays from everyone.

I'm trying to buy up the boxes slowly as I find bargains. It took me a while to bring them all together from various shelves where they're displayed.
