HELP! 1974 baseball set hit by gremlins (finally finished!)

TNP777 · June 28, 2011 1:22PM

I recently obtained what I thought was the last card for my 1974 Topps baseball set - the McCovey Washington variation. I was going through the box (I keep my raw sets boxed) and found that I have two copies of #599, which should be a good thing. Unfortunately, both are the Washington version. So, I'm in need of the regular San Diego version. I'm not really concerned whether it's the large or small print version, and I ain't picky about condition. In fact, an off-condition cars would be preferred.

Please reply or PM with a price. Thanks in advance.

Geordie,

I had an extra one a while ago, but unfortunately I mailed it off (for free) to the guy that was collecting sets"with his boys"...

I'm sorry that I can't help you out.

See, this is why we sheet our sets! lol

Tom, was that the dead guy or some other pos? I get my CU scumbags mixed up sometimes.

Eric, not the first time I've been told that. I'm not about to make the huge investment in binders and pages. Sure would make things easier, though.

I have these 2 available, which color do you prefer?

Thought I had an extra but it's a Washington version as well.

Sorry.

thanks for checking, everyone. Mdube, PM sent back - I need #599, not the McCovey. Nick, I'll take the black one, provided you will ship it in a PWE. Off-condition cars warrant no more than that.

We only have a handfull of PSA 9, 1978 Topps Johnny Oates cards here.

Sorry but we looked and we don't have any 599 San Diego cards here.

I do have a mixed lot of 74's in the mail on the way to me, about 1/3 of the set. If one is in there and you are still looking I'll let you know.

Geordie, maybe this will help to jog your memory.

Got my lot in and had a 599, the ONLY Washington card in the bunch.

I do have another lot of 145 coming, don't know what is in there either.

Free bump to the top!
