Al, so 50 cents got you into every game for a full season? I know the Browns weren't very good, but that still seems like a pretty good deal.

Looks like from referenced conditions on back of pass that the 50 cents involved taxes and fees that had to be paid with each entry using pass

My Willie Jones'.
The one on the right is for sale if anyone is interested? Both are black backs.

I wonder if Mr. Jones was pleased with the nick name Puddin Head

Quote:
Willie Jones most likely got his nickname from a song. In the early 1930s, a popular tune on the radio was Puddin’ Head Jones. The lyrics told of a slow-witted chap who was down on his luck: Oh, Puddin’ head Jones was fat and funny Dumber than sticks and stones Now that is just why the kids all called him Woodenhead, Puddin’ Head Jones |

Joe Page......Ace Relief Pitcher
Mgr. Stengel would bring Joe Page into the game as early as the 6th inning. Joe would completely shut out the opposing
team. At most, allowing only one Hit or a Walk in those 4 innings. You had to see him pitch, he was absolutely amazing. . . --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Johnny Sain bio TED Z T206 Reference . |

Mr. Joe Page, (Black back/correct bio) Hoping to someday acquire the wrong back bio variation of this card.

Enjoying the pics fellas. No posts from me until we hit another one that I have in a slab. I haven't scanned many of my raw cards so have to sit on the sidelines for some #s.

"Spahn and Sain and pray for rain"

I agree, Ted.
I posted this before but for those that didn't know, Johnny Sain was the first pitcher Jackie Robinson faced in his MLB debut and he also has the distinction of being the last pitcher Babe Ruth faced in organized ball. Also, between himself and Warren Spahn, who were one of the best dynamic duos ever, a famous poem was born because of them and it goes like this. First we'll use Spahn then we'll use Sain Then an off day followed by rain Back will come Spahn followed by Sain And followed we hope by two days of rain. Anyways, here are my 2 copies. A graded black back correct bio and Page bio black back that I likely should get graded...

Johnny Sain in the HOF
Quote:
To them, I suggest they read Johnny's SABR story.... https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/johnny-sain/ His post-Pitching days really tell the story of Johnny. Starting with the Yankees in 1961 (Whitey Ford and Jim Bouton). Johnny went on to be the most successful Pitching Coach in modern BB. In 1965 with Johnny, the Twins won their 1st pennant ("Mudcat" Grant, Jim Katt). In 1968, Detroit was the World Champions thanks to Johnny's coaching of Mickey Lolich and Denny McLain (31-game winner). In 1972, Johnny became Pitching coach for the White Sox. "Goose" Gossage's rookie year. Gossage said...... "before Johnny Sain, I was just a power thrower, he made me a Pitcher". P.S.....I had a nice conversation with Denny McLain a few years ago at the Philly Show. I brought up the subject of Johnny Sain and Denny spent about 15 mins. telling me all these great stories of how Sain was responsible for his success, and the Tigers beating the Cardinals in the 1968 World Series.

I'm still trying to figure out why the third one got a MC qualifier. Here's the back. Last edited by bobsbbcards; 04-11-2021 at 04:05 AM. |

Has to be a mistake. It's not even OC let alone MC. Maybe you could send it in and wait a year to have them regrade it.

That aside, I was told this card, Marv Rickert, was a fairly tough card to find in great shape with a black back? Can anyone confirm that?

My Marv Rickert BB still sports the sticker on the toploader it came in several years ago (price has been Photoshopped out). Looks like I got a relative bargain compared to today's asks.

I remember when I was chasing mine down how difficult it was to find a decently centered one and one without the top corner pulls like you can see in the top right of mine. I've looked occasionally for an upgrade but there doesn't seem to be a lot and if there is, it is usually selling for a premium. I guess I answered my own previous question.

I have no idea what I paid for my Rickert or how difficult it was to find, but clearly, I wasn't concerned about centering when I bought it. This is one of the few cards I have posted so far where the T/B centering is off. Usually, it has been the L/R centering that is the problem. Actually, the centering on the red back is decent for a change for me.

Maybe, but it seems to be straight in person. The curve at the top right seems to result from the angle of the scan, since you can see the same thing on a lot of my cards (looks similar to the black-back Rickert above).

Imo, Bob's card doesn't display any of those attributes. Clearly, and just my opinion again, PSA messed up.
