Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: 50's Commons: Cards 118-131
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2011/03/50s-commons-cards-118-131.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Monday, March 7, 2011. 50's Commons: Cards 118-131. No one especially amazing in this group. Avila won a batting title, but as a Red Sox fan I'm not going to talk about it. Earl Averill was an excellent player - but the card below is his not at all amazing (baseball-wise at least) son. Last point - everybody ended up with a Dixie Howell. You couldn't give these things away. Up next - short, sweet, and memorable. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Pack A Day.

Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: Rookies: Cards 172-177
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2011/03/rookies-cards-172-177.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Monday, March 28, 2011. I know I had a few more rookies spread throughout the previous posts, but.whatever. It's not like all of these are zingers. I forgot to grab a picture of one of them - a 1957 Burnette. First name? No idea. Not even motivated to find out. It's not worth it. The Rudi will be featured in my condition report once that's ready. Spoiler: it's part of the house of horrors. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Pack A Day. 50s Unlisted Stars: Cards 158-171.

Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: 60's Minor Stars: Cards 92-107
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2011/03/60s-minor-stars-cards-92-107.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Wednesday, March 2, 2011. 60's Minor Stars: Cards 92-107. Definitely one of my favorite groupings. Here are a bunch of minor stars from the 60's. These players were good and the cards are definitely interesting. Some expand into the middle to high series as well. The Wertz, Javier, Face, and the '66 McAuliffe all are tough picks. Next up: MORE from 1958. A lot more. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Pack A Day. 50s Unlisted Stars: Cards 158-171. Listed Stars: Cards 153-157.

Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: 1958 Unlisted Stars: Cards 108-117
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2011/03/1958-unlisted-stars-cards-108-117.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Thursday, March 3, 2011. 1958 Unlisted Stars: Cards 108-117. Yes yes - the '58 set is boring, but it did make for easy pickings of the minor and unlisted stars. A bunch of these players I find interesting, which is a nice bonus. To wit:. Conley - one of the original two-sport stars. Dude played for the Celtics. Triandos - Familiar to anyone who has seen The Wire. Miller - Shares his name with a guy I know. And the others are alright too, but my connection to them is lesser.

Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: May 2008
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Tuesday, May 27, 2008. I've got a better idea. Okay, it's clear to me that I'm not going to keep up with this as is. So, I need a new idea and I think I have it. Last year I completed the 1974 Topps. Set It was my first serious set building exercise. That reached completion. It's time that I started a new (vintage) set. 1972 Topps - 5 - Same problem as 1973, but I really like this set for some reason. 1971 Topps - 2 - Condition would drive me crazy. 1967 Topps - 3 - Trendy.

Bill Ripken's Bat Handle: March 2010
http://rickface.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Bill Ripken's Bat Handle. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Topps isn't displaying the images for most of their cards right now. I'm wondering if that's an effort to speed up the server. I'm not to keen on it - the speed is nice, but I want to know what I'm looking at. I traded the Lynn rookie. Explaining what I got and all the aftermath will be a mess, but here it goes. The trades:. 87 Sandberg '89 Ryan '71 Clendenon. 05 Clemens '87 Clemens '81 Trammell. 65 Zimmerman '63 Maxwell. 61 Pascual '63 Hannan. Today w...
