Campaneris played 19 years in the bigs, hitting a career-high 22 HR in 1970. He never hit as many as 10 in any of his other 18 seasons.

Was Campy using the clear?

ymarea · April 4, 2009 9:09AM

I doubt that he juiced. Campy did have some pop in his bat. He hit 2 homeruns in his very first big league game, homering off the first pitch he saw.

In the spirit of 2009 Heritage I found these in an old binder of mine. Crummy shape but I like them. Bob Oldis is a family friend and scout for the Flordia Marlins.

Just pulled from a BBCE pack in the latest group rip.

fur72 · April 4, 2009 10:00AM

Wow nice Wayne. I hate to show your great pull up but I found this beauty in one of my old binders. No idea where it came from.

Bosox1976 · April 10, 2009 8:42PM

Here are some of my favorite commons (with apologies to Al Lopez) from the 62 set - no unifying theme except I like 'em:

Nice Gretzky rookie!

Bosox, I think Larry Osborne has a baseball in his mouth.
Nice cards.

purduepete · April 10, 2009 10:00PM

Mike,

I'm a big fan of the 62 set too. They are especially nice when you can find them in that condition.

I don't know why it is, but it seems like the 62's are a set that people either love or hate.

purduepete · April 10, 2009 10:07PM

Although this card isn't in the best of shape, I couldn't be happier after getting it this week...

It was the last card I needed to complete my 69 OPeeChee set - a set that I've been working on for the last 3+ years.

Bosox1976 · April 10, 2009 10:17PM

Congratulations Tom!

Bosox1976 · April 10, 2009 11:12PM

Here's a nice Reggie I got in this week...

Brett,
NICE CARDS! For some reason Manny Sanguillen's cards always were interesting to me.
Let me know the grades you get.
Michael

ymarea · April 10, 2009 11:45PM

Michael,
Funny you should mention Sanguillen. Of all the cards, I think that has the best shot at a 9. There are 2 others that look worthy, but you never can tell.

Mphilking · April 10, 2009 11:47PM

I for one never can tell that's for sure. You on the other hand will likely come close to if not on target.
Best of luck with the grades!

That's the kind of (OC) I can get along with. Great looking card Tom, looks like a straight up 7 to me. Unless those are roughcut corners, I'd go higher with an (OC).

Graet cards everyone.

Yippie kiyay! Kimo Sabe

This 1958 minty set, just arrived!

RD,
WHOA!! Those are some sharpe vibrant colored cards.
Congrats.

Thanks Trent. I'm not planning to get it graded, but I would guess that it would only get a 5 at best. Johnny's got a pretty dinged up lower right corner, plus he has that damned printing crease (that OPC's are notorious for) running from the top of his head down to his hand.

Pigs · April 11, 2009 12:34AM

Very nice '71s. Not bad for having a rubber band around them. Looks like some 8's in there. The 3D Clemente is great too. How do you flatten out a card like that and not have it crack on you?

EagleEyeKid · April 11, 2009 2:06AM

Merlin Olsen....dang, it's a trip to see how young he was.
I don't think of him as a Ram, but more of an actor.
He was Johnathan Garvey on "Little House on the Prairie".

Carew29 · April 11, 2009 4:49AM

Newest adds for me--

RipublicaninMass · April 11, 2009 7:39AM

Latest one, going in for grading with a bunch more in about 2 weeks

Bosox1976 · April 17, 2009 8:15PM

While not centered perfectly, here is a really clean Maris, a sharp Ruth, and a nice Gibson that I got in this week....

Carew ... Nice cards I love that set!

gorgeous cards Brett, truly a labor of love.

I'll give it a try: they are/have been managers or coaches at the major league level?

BTW, nice 76's! Those have really grown on me the last year or so.

Robert, nice try, but incorrect. Thanks for taking a stab at it. Hint: The answer involves each player only within the context of the '76 set. It has nothing to do with their on- or off-field accomplishments.

Pigs · April 18, 2009 4:09AM

Here's some '52's. 17 away from 1-311 mostly raw. Saturdays are great but raw card Saturday is the best. Thanks. Doug

bigwilli · April 18, 2009 4:16AM

Gorgeous 52's

ymarea · April 18, 2009 4:28AM

<< Gorgeous 52's >>

I'll second that!

Bosox1976 · April 18, 2009 5:53AM

If I am not mistaken, all of those 76's also appear in the 1976 Topps traded set...

Nice cards today men.

rbdjr1 · April 18, 2009 6:19AM

junk (I'll just bury them in storage!)

think from an old CU group rip?

Flags did I win something?

bman90278 · April 24, 2009 10:44PM

Hi Brett, Always enjoy your fabulous raw cards. Thanks for sharing them.

brian

ymarea · April 24, 2009 10:58PM

bighurt2000,

Flags is correct. Old Glory can be seen in the background of each card...even Jim Beauchamp. You do, indeed, win something: my undying respect and admiration, for you have proven yourself to be a true card enthusiast.

Brian,

Thanks for the kind words. They keep me coming back each weekend.

Here's some mini's. Owned since '75. I just wanted to add that Michigan and Calif. weren't the only states that had mini's,(you may already know that) I grew up in Oregon and they were what we had there. I believe Washington State also had them. Great looking cards today guys. Doug

ymarea · April 25, 2009 12:04AM

Doug,
Those cards look tremendous, especially considering that you've had them since 1975. Lots of star power, too.

ymarea · April 25, 2009 12:08AM

OAKESY25 · April 25, 2009 12:11AM

on your last post I say the secret meaning is they are all team cards???

do I win?

Pigs · April 25, 2009 12:19AM

Thanks Brett. I'm not quite sure how they survived through the years. No plastic sleeves back then and sheets were just coming out. I think the secret is that I kept the years separate from the beginning so they weren't knocked around with all the other cards. Believe me I have my share of "well handled" cards from the mini set. I can't believe this set is 34 this year. Yikes

Amazing '70s cards by the way.
