Wow, that is some great stuff!! I love the Ted and Yaz picture.

bobsbbcards · March 21, 2014 10:24PM

I would bust open that '60 Rack pack. You might get lucky and find a Yaz rookie inside.......oh, never mind.

Awesome stuff!

Dboneesq · March 21, 2014 10:26PM

See? I TOLD you that Manny was THE YAZ GUY!

Nice stuff Manny.

itzagoner · March 21, 2014 10:29PM

Yaz wore flip-flops. surfer cool.

zep33 · March 21, 2014 10:31PM

Awesome!!

BigRedMachine · March 22, 2014 12:53AM

Great stuff Manny!!

DanBessette · March 22, 2014 1:19AM

Holy crap Manny, amazing stuff! The AAS panels, the Transogram, the 1960 cellos..... hot damn! This thread is almost too much for me to handle.

gemint · March 22, 2014 1:40AM

Awesome stuff Manny. The centering on the Yaz cello is incredible. Most 60 cellos I have come across have poor centering on the top card.

aconte · March 22, 2014 1:40AM

WOW!

Awesome stuff Manny. Thanks for sharing all those pictures.

Amazing collection! Those are some incredible pieces. I love the unopened stuff in particular but just an incredible variety or cool stuff.

CNote · March 22, 2014 1:55AM

That was a fun post to view

DanBessette · March 22, 2014 2:16AM

Fantastico!

grote15 · March 22, 2014 3:20AM

Impressive assortment of Yaz memorabilia and packs there, Manny!

VitoCo1972 · March 22, 2014 3:23AM

I quite enjoyed that. #understatement

LOL, hashtag..

vintagefun · March 22, 2014 4:45AM

Great way to start a Saturday!

I think Joey Lawrence said it best..."WHOA!!!"

If this is one of those ask, and ye shall receive type things, I would love to see some Koufax or Drysdale collections as well. I'm always looking for something new to covet.

Great stuff Manny!!!

Thanks for sharing!

steel75 · March 22, 2014 5:09AM

That stuff is so nice that even though I only collect 70's Steelers...........I STILL enjoyed looking at your collection

DM23HOF · March 22, 2014 5:15AM

Always great to see a passionate collector's work!

Scottiec2288 · March 22, 2014 5:29AM

Awesome stuff!!!

QUITCRAB · March 22, 2014 7:34AM

Was every player issued in the 62 salada clip back that appears in the regular set? How were the clip backs issued. Can "dishonest" collectors pop out a player and insert it into a clip back plastic ?

Yes they can.

JustinsShoebox · March 22, 2014 9:08AM

My goodness, great stuff here!!

as an added bonus I just took over the #1 spot for the Yaz Master Set.

it has taken me 6 years to do so. In that time the set grew from 215 cards to its current 361 cards!

just added a tough 1970 Trans-O-Gram in PSA-5--ultra tough card--and re-added my 1974 Deckle Edge in PSA-9

will be adding scans of cards to the set and will update the thread. Glad so many people enjoy seeing a diverse player collection and I would encourage others to start player threads of theirs. Some of this stuff is real neat

BaltimoreYankee · March 22, 2014 10:38PM

Great, great stuff! Thanks for sharing this awesome collection.

Kurt · March 23, 2014 1:25AM

Really amazing to me as well! You are clearly passionate as it gets and I love that!

DanBessette · March 23, 2014 1:56AM

I obviously don't fully understand the formula for master set ratings. Packratking has a higher % complete with a higher weighted GPA, but his set rating is lower than yours. I'm thinking of registering one, so can somebody please explain to me how these calculations work?

PaulMaul · March 23, 2014 2:32AM

It's because more significant items carry a higher weight.

DanBessette · March 23, 2014 2:33AM

Yes, but that's factored into the weighted GPA

DanBessette · March 23, 2014 8:35AM

Never mind. I figured it out.

HoofHearted · March 23, 2014 8:51AM

What a great collection!

It's always fun to see something for the first time which, for me in this thread, was a 1962 salada clip back.

mlbfan2 · March 23, 2014 9:01AM

Wow. Very nice stuff.

Do you have this unopened Yaz item in your collection??

smallpaul2002 · March 23, 2014 9:14AM

Really nice stuff..awesome.

SPCollection · May 19, 2014 5:20AM

Ridiculously... Amazingly... Awesome!!!

originalisbest · May 19, 2014 11:11AM

Mighty impressive yaz collection! Love the unopened 60 cellos especially!

flatfoot816 · February 7, 2015 2:53AM

greetings!! Fresh off the New England Patriots GREAT Superbowl win--thought it was good to start thinking baseball and spring training.

Been a while since I updated this thread with more Yaz stuff--so here ya go for your viewing pleasure

1st up--not a card that is part of the registry--and not a card at all--but probably more scarce than any card ON the registry--
this is actually a placemat that was used at local New England restaurants in the late '60s and early '70s I believe--very scarce--and in mint condition
Arnold Bread was a Connecticut bakery that endorsed Yaz and the Sox--cool item

Another scarce Yaz item is this Arnold Bread wrapper. The bakery used a plain plastic wrapper around the bread and then put the loaf in this Yaz wrapper.
Similar to the photo in the placemat--and just as scarce and cool advertisement for the Yaz Book

PSA-10 Bazooka Tips from the Topps--another cool Yaz item

1968 Action All Star Center Panel. Also have 2 complete panels

flatfoot816 · February 7, 2015 3:08AM

1960 Venezuela Rookie in "high grade"--well for this issue--not many higher and a tough card

another tough issue--the '64 Topps Photo Tatoo--took me very long to get this one

I have no idea what the heck this is from --it was added to the Yaz Master Registry Set about a month ago--cool issue nonetheless

hi-grade 1974 Topps Cello with you know who on top

I have just uploaded cards from 1960-1965 on my Master Set--if you care to see some gresat items. Gonna take a LONG TIME to load the entire set.

Here is the link to my set--hope you all enjoy

mams Yaz Master Set

SPCollection · February 7, 2015 3:14AM

WOW! These are amazing to see. Last year was really really tough and I haven't been able to do much at all with my Yaz collection. Just seeing these items is enough for me right now. 1978 was my first year collecting and I have a PSA-9 Yaz on top cello. Seeing unopened with Yaz on top is beautiful and your collection just keeps on impressing. I love that '74 cello. The 60's are ridiculous too! Keep up the great work!

DanBessette · February 7, 2015 4:20AM

Thanks Manny, you first started this thread when I was recovering from surgery last March. It was a great pick-me-up then and equally tremendous now! I was thrilled for you when you landed that Vennie RC. And I'd never seen those Arnold items, which are really cool. Thanks for sharing!

slum22 · February 28, 2015 3:30PM

Manny,

Those are some great additions to an already incredible collection. Congrats and keep the updates coming. Love everything especially the unopened stuff!
