Nice grouping of cards and what a bonus to find something you had lost track of. I hope you find more to share while finishing your cleaning. >>

Found no more cards, but I did discover this vintage white sox item:

Few boxing cards I've picked up lately....

1966CUDA · September 18, 2006 11:38PM

RD....WOW...wish I had that kinda' stuff just sitting in a box I forgot about...nice stuff!!

roastedcat · September 19, 2006 1:05PM

Did I get a good deal on this? I won it for $38.00 + $5.00 sh The seller states the cards are all NM and should be graded. I was thinking of submitting them all to PSA just to get a complete set on the registry instead of building a set one by one

1970 OFFICIAL BASEBALL CARD GAME by Milton Bradley Co. in Near Mint Condition. Complete w/32 game cards & 28 player cards. Includes 14 HALL OF FAMERS (yes Rose). These 14 show almost no wear & probably should be graded. These include:

BROCK
ROSE
SEAVER
CLEMENTE
MAYS
AARON
KILLEBREW
JACKSON
McCOVEY
MARICHAL
CAREW
ROBINSON
BANKS
NIEKRO
The game itself is in excellent condition, NO splits on the lid, field & scoreboard are nice. Very clean game! Buyer pays $5 shipping. NO RESERVE!!

baseballfanatic · September 19, 2006 1:30PM

Nice game. The 1970 Milton Bradley was the "travel size" companion to the 1969 big game. The 69's had 296 cards in the set and came in a bigger box. The 69's had square corners and were issued in perforated sheets which you had to seperate to make the individual cards. The 1970 cards are a bit smaller than the 69's and are usually found in nice condition, like yours, because of the rounded corners. Gotta love that airbrush work......

Cool stuff guys!!

Just starting my Frank Robinson player set registry. So far, have purchased two and I had one of them arrive yesterday....

GDM67 · September 20, 2006 11:57AM

Frank Robby is one of the most underrated players in the game's history and in the hobby, alike. I look forward to seeing you compile this set.

ArnyVee · September 20, 2006 8:33PM

I agree. F.Robinson was a very underrated player...one of the greats of all time. Yesterday I received another F.Robinson card....so far, only the more recent ones, but I'm trying not to overpay too much and I'm building it up slowly.

My newest Deacon Phillippe addition. I bought it raw for $20 on eBay.

Stone193 · September 23, 2006 2:42AM

This is for Jery - Roasted:

<< I won today for $38. did I get a good deal on this? >>

I picked up the game last year - I think I paid 30 bucks. Yes, I think ya did good. The games have a range value between 50-125$ and the Standard Catalog of BB has the "complete boxed set" booking Nm for
150$.

My first post in this thread. I may just start my Tom Brady set on the registry now.

Thanks to 5Stat for hooking me up with this.

ArnyVee · September 23, 2006 3:42AM

Couple of star cards for my '85 Topps Football set arrived yesterday. This is one of the best looking and toughest sets to complete in 9 or better.

rbdjr1 · September 23, 2006 1:09PM

I was looking at a 1978 George Brett card tonite, and realized just how rare my own 1976 Topps George Brett PSA 9 really is!

I know of only 2 PSA 9's in the 1976 Topps Registry set (The #1 set, me!

and the #2 set, Cincyfan). (NO TENS GRADED!!!!!!)
The George Brett Basic & Master Player PSA Registry Sets: None (...not a single PSA 9 to be had!)

Well, that leaves 3 graded examples "out there somewhere in sportscard land"!

A PSA 9, if and when one comes up for sale, will fetch a tidy sum. And someday, if a 1976 Topps George Brett PSA 10 does surface, who knows how high one could go for?

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooo tough!

zef204 · September 23, 2006 1:26PM

Arny, I love the 85 set too and it is TOUGH to grade well.

softparade · September 23, 2006 1:50PM

Just got this in the mail today.

ArnyVee · September 24, 2006 6:35AM

Another few recent cards for my '85 Topps Football set....

Time for some football:

tkd7 · September 26, 2006 5:31AM

Arny and Stingray,
Those 85s pop! Nice cards.

NewJerseyMeatHook · September 26, 2006 10:15AM

Didn't realize how tough these were . . .

Stone193 · September 26, 2006 11:38AM

My first purchase - out of pocket - since Nov 05!

An auto Jones Braves jersey - JSA authenticated.

Good price - not a steal.

Nice pick up on the 57T - where are you on the set? Are you still upgrading the 78T set?

mike

Stone193 · September 26, 2006 12:18PM

Meat

Those are some sweet looking 69Ts - the color backgrounds are a favorite of mine.

I'm looking forward to next yrs Topps Heritage since they will be resurrecting the 58T design!

Andruw's signature is as smooth and elegant as his outfield play

schr1st · September 26, 2006 4:49PM

Most of my maildays have been too big to show off recently (multi-hundred card lots), but a nice little group of cards came in today:

I've really been wanting an autographed Berra rookie for a while now, but haven't been able to get an acceptable one (either condition-wise or price-wise) on eBay in order to send it in to his museum to be signed. I may still get one done (I'd rather have a ballpoint ink one), but this one certainly will do for now. The Kubek goes towards my autographed 57 Topps set, and the Jensen was just too cool of a card to pass up. It'll go nicely with an autographed 52 Topps (PSA/DNA as well) that should be arriving any day now.

Schr1st,

I absolutely love that Spahn. I've been looking at unsigned issues of that card on the Bay for a while now but always got outsniped at the end.

You've got to be really happy with the centering on that Kell.

Thanks for sharing.

Arthur

schr1st · September 27, 2006 1:51AM

Thanks for the compliments! I am indeed happy with the centering on the Kell. It has print marks on it, but it still presents really well. It'll look nice once I have it slabbed. I had been wanting to get a normal Spahn as well, but it's one of those cards that either looks really sharp, or too dull to even be worth spending $ on.

ArnyVee · September 27, 2006 11:49PM

Stingray is movin' to the groove of those tough bordered '85s! Welcome aboard!

Here's my first (and only so far) 10 from my set along with another 9 to add to my set....

Stingray · September 28, 2006 12:01AM

Yes, I am trying. It seems that 9s can be all over the place as far as centering?? Nice to see that 10 with great centering!!

XanaduNow · September 28, 2006 12:20AM

Arny, do you bust a lot of pax and submit or pick them up on the bay? Or both?

That is a very good looking set in high grade. Good luck guys!
