You are wanting some pretty rare stuff. I am also looking for 67 Stand Ups, 68 Plaks, and Discs of Cardinals. I am thinking that I will never even find them, much less be able to afford them. Good luck, though.
I doubt that too Manny. Fritsch got major deals on overstock of regular cards, and that is what he's got tons of. But the test sets excess were sold thru Woody Gelmans son's Wholesale Cards, and I've got catalogs from the late '60's and early '70's, and they just don't have any. The really rare stuff will remain really rare- it's the standard issues and packs from '60 on that could get flooded by Fritsch- just like he's been starting to list in Mastro.

my comment about Fritsch was based upon an article in SCD last week. Larry apparently has a full sheet of the '61 Dice Game cards. If he has a full sheet, is it a stretch that he has a few extras? According to the article, Larry feels that sheet could fetch $200K.

Missed that as well, SCD lost relevance for me a long time ago. I don't doubt he's personally got a set of just about everything, but I do have doubts he's got anywhere near enough extras to do any more than fuel a feeding frenzy should they be offered. Sometimes stuff is so rare nobody collects it, and with the exception of Sflayank, Bob, and possibly a couple of others I think this is true of the dice game and some of the rarer '60's test issues. If a dozen or so examples suddenly popped up a few more people might decide to jump in, causing the prices to rise and never satisfying the demand.

Anthony--I agree with you on SCD. Sad decline in the past few years. I used to look forward to getting the magazine. The artilce was dealing explicitly on Full Sheets and those that collect them. Larry and the Dice Sheet was mentioned--isn't he always?

I missed that article. Maybe you're right.
