I've also gotten lucky with a few off-condition vintage lots lately.
1975 Topps mini is a lower-priority set for me, but at basically a dime a card I went for this one. The top row is cards I needed; the bottom row is for trade. I haven't updated my trade lists yet, but if you have needs for this set let me know. All common cards, and all in nice shape except that someone wrote a number on the back of each one.
These are available. The biggest issue with the cards is the curling; however most of my other '77 OPCs are in pretty good shape and I'm happy to send my better ones as this condition is fine with me.
Finally I was able to get a '55 Topps lot for a similar price. Almost all of the cards were trimmed which is why it went so cheaply. I was able to add a dozen needs for the set. Harry "The Cat" Brecheen got an action photo even though he had retired a couple of years ago and was now a coach. He pitched for the Browns but never the Orioles as he is shown there. Another interesting tidbit is that both Phillies in this group never played a game in the major leagues.
Lots to trade. No guarantees of a better-conditioned card with these, but if you need any of these cards let me know.
I love the hand-typed update on the Johnny Gray card!
ReplyDeleteI'm collecting '77 OPC but I have some coming in a COMC order very soon -- that will get me to figure out what I need. So I'll get back to you, unless someone else gets them first.
ReplyDeleteI have a 75' Topps Mini want list on my site.
ReplyDeleteI've got about 100 1975 Topps minis. I'll go through and see if I can help you out.
ReplyDeleteI would have to think that most of the doubles will be very easy to trade in your card group.
