Chased down some more 67 HOFmers and commons. That is my favorite Maz card. Reminds me of the 62 Maris card.

Here is the worst one. Technically not a Game 7 card but shame on Topps for only issuing one card to highlight the incredible 1975 World Series.

β€˜73 Pat Corrales should be on the list.

72 needed cards for my 1967 set chase. Calling this a chase because I know my limits when it comes to a set build. Mostly commons and a handful of low cost HOFmers.

Arrived in the mail yesterday. Feel this is one of Hank’s best looking cards.

Was considering putting together a complete set but I will never be able to afford the Seaver and Carew rookie cards. A β€œcomplete” set for me would be 1-500.

Recent eBay purchases arrived yesterday. Will be looking for more 1967 cards at local show on Saturday. I have always considered this to be the best Topps set issued during the β€˜60s.

On this day in 1965 Satchel Paige recorded his last strikeout in a major league game. The victim was Bill Monbouquette.

Great story. Really enjoyed it.

Looks like Steve Blass, Al Oliver, and Manny were there.

I was going to go there but thought I should show a different Pirates item.

A very generous gift from a high school buddy who knows that I collect cards.

Some new additions for the 1966 set build. Good news - 26 cards to go. Bad news - all are high numbers and 13 of them are also short prints.

I can definitely relate to this post. I am trying to complete a 1966 set and the prices for high numbers are crazy.

Gold foil Parker arrived recently. I never seem to land these β€œlimited” cards when I place an order on the Topps site - but I lucked out on this one.

Sitting close to the Pirates dugout for the 3 games at Fenway gave me the opportunity to see a true team leader - Andrew McCutchen - in action. A master at keeping everyone loose.

Had seats close to the Pirates dugout to see Skenes get the win at Fenway Park. Added bonus was seeing Tolle debut.
