Any Topps Test Stuff At The National?
Anyone see any booths with a good selection of the old Topps test and oddball stuff?

Very Little
Steve Werley has a ton of the stuff, based on where he prices it, it looks like he will have a lot of it for a long time to come. He does have the goods though. A couple of other items in the room - 1967 Aaron Giant stand up with Mark Lodilinsky, Plaks at memory lane(exactly how many were in that find????), a couple of other odds and ends - nothing that I saw worth writing home about. Now the 1968 3d empty box and 1967 Stand up empty box in Legendary's auction tonight are unbelievable - had the stand up box in my hands - too cool!!!

I saw either two or three tables with some of the 1964 Topps Rookie of the Year multi-player cards. These are usually near-impossible to find.

67 Stand up box!
AWESOME pickup on the stand up box Larry. I didn't even see what it went for yet, but that box is off the charts - extra large size, Mantle on the top and in excellent condition. Just awesome!

Dave,
I know Steve purchased some or all of his 1968 Plaks shortly after Mile High starting selling them off. He has had them for a little while. Mike |

Gotcha-thought you meant he had bought them that day.
Had a great time in Bawlmer but I have to say there was a dearth of test issues and the more regional/smaller Topps sets compared to the larger shows I have attended in the last 25 years or so. Aside from Steve Werley and a couple of other dealers there was not a whole lot out there; usually there are various pockets of things randomly strewn about. A quick recap of what I saw among the non-oddball dealers: -a 61 Dice game going into one of the auction catalogs (B. Robby) -an unopened box of 62 stamp albums -a handful of 67 Pirates and Red Sox Stickers -maybe three 67 Giant Stand Ups -68 Plaks at Mile High and Steve Werley's booths (cheating on Werley, I know) -3 or 4 68 3D's Very slim pickings. I must say I saw a whole lot of 74 Deckles, to the point I wonder how scarce they really are. I have noticed this phenomenon before. The 74 Stamp Albums are much harder, although the stamps proper are easy. Anyone else notice some tests? Last edited by toppcat; 08-12-2010 at 06:15 AM. |

Dave,
Was Mike from Columbia City there? He usually has some Topps test issues and other oddball items. I didn't go to the Nat'l this year, but am surprised to hear that there weren't more Topps test issues available. Mike |

Columbia City was there with their usual wide assortment of inventory. Though I wasn't looking for Topps test issues, I did buy a 1952 Tip Top bread label of Indians pitcher Lou Brissie from Mike, so that was a pleasant surprise. |

Mike was there but he seemed to have what he always has and I saw mostly inserts at his table. Maybe I missed a few items but the dealers offering test issues may be a thing of the past as more and more stuff goes to catalog auctions.
