1956-65 Kahn's Wieners Frank Robinson

[Chris-Counts]

Congratulations! I really like the Kahn's cards, and I've been trying to find as many different as possible of both Frank Robinson and Vada Pinson. I was lucky enough to pick up the '56 Frank Robinson for a song — it was listed on eBay as a "Frank Robinson photo." I never realized that the 1961 and 1962 cards of Frank have the same photo. It's too bad the Reds traded Frank — it would have been great to see 1967-69 Kahn's cards of him.

Joe Nuxhall also had 10 Kahn’s cards - but not consecutively.

The Ol’ Lefthander appeared in the 1955-1960 and 1963-1966 sets.

At first I could not figure out why he wasn’t in the 1961 and 1962 sets. Then I learned something I did not know. Nuxhall pitched for the A’s in 1961 and the Angels in 1962 before signing back with the Reds in 1962 after being released.

I had no idea he didn’t spend his entire career with the Reds!

Some final comments:

< I agree too bad for Kahn's collectors that Robinson was traded, but okay with Orioles fans;

< Nuxhall with 10 (including 1955) is very impressive. Thanks for pointing that out;

< Very cool in full panel. Thanks for showing that;

< "Frank" Robinson not only has 10 (consecutive) but is also in the running for best name as spokesperson for Kahn's Wieners.

That's an amazing collection of Franks. Can't imagine too many people (if any?) have the entire player run. Congrats.
