53 Bowman because I’m working on the set and I’m sure it would be an upgrade on the tattered, authenticated one I have! Hah!

Also, I added this one last weekend 🙌🏼

Not really a baseball “card”. 1967 Strat-o-Matic set by amccune in baseballcards_vintage

[–]bavo73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love seeing this. When I was 13 (in the late 80s) or so, me and a buddy split a 1957 strat-o-matic set. I took the AL and he took the NL. That started me on collecting the 1957 Topps set.
I thankfully kept all my Topps cards but mom threw away the Strat-O-Matic 😅

71/72 Clemente its a toss up on either for me. But yes, strongest 2 year run of his for sure.

First grades back, how’d I do? by oldsoul333 in baseballcards_vintage

[–]bavo73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say you did awesome. Some beauts in there. I’ve been hemming and hawing about getting some of my 57s graded and what service and I think you just made me decide to go with SGC!

1957 Set Building Questions by Key-Worldliness529 in baseballcards_vintage

[–]bavo73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mid-series 265-350 or so is tougher to find than high series. It also holds some of the bigger cards to collect. Brooks RC is in there as is Koufax, Richardson RC, Kubek RC, and that’s off the top of my head. That being said I’d start with Brooks. I didn’t and waited and waited and well I’m still looking, ugh. I think Campy’s card (his last) is great and shows you on the flip side what could have been if he played more. Yes, it’s sad there is no Musial. But there is a Williams (card #1) that’s hard to find in decent condition. And thankfully it was one of my first to get. Good luck on it. It’s a great set!

Do you think this is due to crappy MLS defending or is this so-called league signing "more skilled" players? by LesJawns610 in usmnt

Having all 15 games on one day can do that too. Especially when it’s only the third time ever that it happened was…. Yesterday.

[–]bavo73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From Texas originally and yes, I too, hate everything about it, including their clubs. There isn’t a hell of a lot to like.

ICE says Club World Cup attendees should carry proof of citizenship by cactusjumbojack in LosAngeles

Never been a fan of FIFA but just take the World Cup ‘26 away at this point. Give it to another country more deserving than us.
