COOOOOP

Had the pleasure of growing up in Milwaukee and watching him play. I don't collect OPC but I would have bid on that one just to have it.
A real beauty!

Nice pickup. Coop was very underrated. He was one of many tough bats in the red sox lineup before going to milwaukee. I always felt he was cheated out of an MVP (and some overdue recognition) one season when his numbers were better than yount's. I may be biased, but his was the first autograph I ever got - along with Luis Tiant on a scorecard in 1974.

Yes, Boston had some underrated bats over the years:

...Jim Rice, Fred Lynn & Cecil Cooper to name a few

rbd, AWESOME pick up

Wow.

You on an OPC kick or what?

Nice pickup, did OPC have an issue with rough cuts back than? This one does not seem to have that issue.

I've got a few OPC cards (68 Mays, 69 Bench, 72 Mays and Bench, etc) and most of them do not have rough cuts. These are graded 7-9 and all look great with none of the rough edges associated with OPC.
