drop me an email, jfmjr1 at aol dot com. i need someone who can use my twins cards.
ReplyDeleteCommemorative patches and bat rack - those are the kinds of oddballs that will stick in my head when I sort cards.
ReplyDeleteIt's all thanks to the 1957 Elmer Valo card that I got into collecting players at the bat rack.
DeleteThe patches were more recent- I was reading a book about the 1976 season and there was a section about how they players were all wearing Bicentennial patches or patches for the World's Fair, or patches for the Olympics (Expos).
DO YOU WANT SOME 90 & 91 & 92 DIAMOND KINGS? JUST SAY THE WORD
ReplyDeleteI do - I will send you an E-mail with a list of the ones I still need from those years - I have doubles and triples of some now, so likewise if you are building Diamond Kings, we might have some for each other...
DeleteHello! I ran across your blog from a link with LIFETIME TOPPS PROJECT. I'm also in MN and collecting Diamond Kings. Do you have a list of the ones you need for the 90s?
ReplyDeleteHi thanks for stopping by. I don't have a list right now but I need to make one, I will set that as a goal for this weekend. I will post it above.
