THE Hank Aaron Thread

[Exhibitman]

I love the oddball cards too. This 1982 Korean issue, for example:




I kind of bought this 1972 Baltimore Sun premium without really thinking about what to do with it.



Strayed a bit far afield here too:

Awesome oddball items Adam. Couple of oddball Transogram’s.

I apologize for lowering the quality of card, but this is my favorite Hank Aaron card I have. I got this one for a couple bucks as a kid, and thought it was the coolest thing to have a card of the Home Run King. The scuffing and poor condition make it worthless, but its still a highlight in my 66 set and brings good memories of childhood.

This print defect 60 Aaron card is on ebay now, but I think I recall in the never ending Variations thread there is a post of a 1960 Aaron that sold on ebay where the entire insert figure is all an white ghost figure

Those are the best type of cards. I still have a few 66s from my very first group of cards I got as a little kid.

Al that card is simply amazing. It would be easy to remove the color in the frame. There is no way you are removing the black over the Indians face without screwing up the red. I vote real and spectacular.

I've haven't seen any other example of the 82 Korean card. Where did you find that one?

Thanks for posting pictures of the hard to find odd-ball rarities of Hank Aaron. Cool to see the broad spectrum he reached as a player.

[aldridgemj214]

Thanks for sharing and commenting everyone. Let’s keep the thread going. It’s not pretty but this one is tough to find. 1967 Topps Venezuelan.

Korea. J/K. On eBay from someone who'd been in Korea.

My favorite Topps printing FUBARs happen to be a few of my favorite Aaron cards:
