@stevenpowers546 '62 is a weird set for me. I never cared much for it, but think many of the HOF cards look fantastic, so I've come around on it. Some of the common players' cards have poor photos and look drab. So I'm sticking to the main guys and happy to have them. Good luck with your quest and thank you for watching!

Thanks! Ken seems to be a pretty good dude. I enjoyed putting the video together.

Thanks for the clarification and for watching!

Thanks for watching. I love 65's! My Mantle is one of my favorite cards. Will definitely check it out. 😀

@vintagecardssteve8582 Both were especially tough for us too, especially Donruss. It seems Donruss may have cut back on their print runs in '84, maybe because of low sales the first few years? Not sure, maybe Topps just had a more established and better distribution system?

@robertgresham2591 I didn't know that about Randy, but that happens a lot with guys getting drafted out of HS but attending college instead of signing. Im sure there are a ton of them not widely known. Not sure if that would make for an interesting enough video, but definitely a fun discussion among card friends. Thanks for watching!

Much appreciated!

I also like the multi-player RC's, though some not as much as others. It was a way for Topps to include more players that hadn't made much of an impact to that point. The players that got a solo RC are usually ones that played almost a full season the year before. Seaver debuted in 1967, so he could have easily been left out until '68! And I do love the '74 as well. Great action shot with the crowd in the background! Thanks for watching again. I do appreciate your comments.

@@VintageBaseballCorner Very true all around and with Seaver, I love how Topps snuck guys like he and Carew in there and several other guys over the years. So many people don't realize Nolan Ryan debuted in 1966... Imagine if Topps pulled that off! My pleasure Chris, I always enjoy the content and commentary!

@@gdellshindig8955 Thank you for watching!

@@RichardKvorka Kind of a crazy story, huh?

@@stevenkicinski9619 Meaning they are your favorite set?

@@VintageBaseballCorner, yes sir. It was the first cards I opened from packs from the corner store. I just finished putting together a nm/mt master set. It took over 20 years, so I was very satisfied to finish it.

@@stevenkicinski9619 Congrats, that's awesome!

Appreciate you watching. I love the '72 Banks too. The color and clarity is so great and the photo just gives you a great look into the face of the man.

Thank you. I remember the Drysdale and Joe Namath episodes really well. It was cool to see those stars making an appearance at the Brady house!

@@VintageBaseballCorner i remember Namath also!

@blixcards Thanks! I admit, it is a nice grouping, especially for me. But the crown jewel is the Ryan. I've been looking for the right one for a long time, and when I saw this listed at a reasonable price, I took a out 10 minutes to come up with a reason not to buy it and couldn't, so I pounced quickly. Not sure it was up for an hour. It IS beautiful and I feel very fortunate to have it.

@@VintageBaseballCorner Brilliant! That's the kind of blessing you need to act on and you nailed it! That backstory makes it even better yet. Always enjoy the content, man!

@@blixcards Thank you for watching and commenting. It is appreciated.

@@ilovebaseballcards9334 Thank you! I'm trying to avoid new addictions, but I can definitely see me picking up an occasional Kellogg's or Hostess card.

Thanks for watching and subscribing, I appreciate it! Look for my newest video, which should publish tomorrow afternoon.

Hey, I just saw your comment/question. Most cards are kept for the PC, but I do occasionally sell some. Feel free to email me if you have questions on any specific cards or if you're looking for something you don't see. My email address should be in the info on my channel page. Thanks!

@@billschipper1718 Thank you for watching!

@@darlenefarmer4679 That's a great story and one I would have liked to have told in the video! Wish I had caught wind of it sooner. Thank you for sharing!!

Jim Bouton also tells this story in Ball Four.

Thanks! Reach out via email. The address should be on my main channel page. Leave a comment once you send it so I can look for it. Some go to spam. Would love to find out what you have and discuss '75s and other vintage cards. I appreciate the Minis as well, but never let myself get started as they'd easily become a rabbit hole I don't need to dig into. ha ha

I have to admit, my ranking in these subregistries wouldn't be as high if all who are in the main 1975 Registry added these. But until then, I'll enjoy it! Thanks for watching. I was really proud of this video!

@@ilovebaseballcards9334 I concur on both!

Thanks! I haven't seen any specials on Crossovers or Reviews. Just fyi Nice Ken McMullen RC, btw. What a stunner! That's some serious funny money! Plus that Rose guy was pretty good too. Part of our success has been me spending way too much time reviewing cards, plus the right equipment and lighting to do so. A lot of cards get rejected, or at minimum expectations muted a bit. That said, at times, my "pre-grade" has been low. I think too much at times. Then again, I wasn't expecting 7s on the '75s from the vintage sub, so nothing is exact. ha ha Ultimately grading is still someone's opinion that day, whether at PSA or SGC. There will always be subjectivity on vintage cards.

There were several decent ones in there! :)

Thanks! I feel like with the Puckett and Nicklaus 10's the Henderson and Ryan 10's kind of took a back seat. I was happy with the '81 Fleer Nolan Ryan 9 as well. I changed my mind several times about which cards to use for the background, but the '84 Donruss Ryan was definitely going to be up there. I was ecstatic when I had it graded several years ago!

I've had the same issue, getting 7s-9s when I was thinking 8s - 10s. Other years, I'm generally better with my expectations. A bit of a mixture on this sub, but many really strong results to balance. Thanks for watching!

@@peterb4871 Thanks for watching and the sub! I never caught the like colors either until the last year or so. Hope you'll come back to check out the next reveal, 1980-present. I'm working on it now.

@@peterb4871 Thank you for watching!

@TheJollyElm Happy you enjoyed it! Not sure a blind reveal will happen, though. One, I'm not that disciplined! Two, the cards typically belong to 3 or 4 of us, and they want to know too. In theory, it sounds like a great idea, but just not sure reality will ever play out that way. ha ha

@PatrickHockeyNYISLES72 Glad you enjoy it. The stories/stats make the videos a bit longer, but I like the history behind the game. A 1980-present reveal is coming soon. Will be a lot of 80s and a lot of Dale Murphy, so maybe not as many stories 😀

@@Worklikeyoushouldbe Thanks! We were happy with the results. Appreciate you watching.

I didn't recognize the common colors of the All-Stars until a year ago or so when I started filling up the AS Registry. Crazy how some things are right in front of you and you still miss it!

@blixcards Thanks! Overall, it was a good sub, minus a few of the '75s. But, hey I'm not perfect. The Rice is indeed gorgeous! I thought the earlier cards going back to 1960, in Part 1 got even better results, which was a nice surprise.

@@VintageBaseballCorner You bet! I saw that reveal as well, you nailed both. Watching your videos has me heading back to PSA, they are grading realistically again, obviously. You have a great eye!

@Collectwhatyoulike At this point no I don't think so, because the cut is already just into the lines on the right side. It would be tough to cut the rest of that side closer and keep the cut straight. Originally, yes, it would have been better. At least I don't think I could be that precise based on how it is now!

'75-'84 is kind of my jam. Ha. But even as a kid, I liked players from the 50s and 60s even though I had not seen them play. The stories behind the game were always interesting to me. That's what I'm trying to share here, in addition to cards. Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed it! I picked up a cheap box of '83 OPC cards at an Estate Sale recently. They seemed to be mint. I'll dig thru them soon, but I'm thinking Gwynn and Sandberg are not in there. I think time will be the friend the OPC cards need. As they continue to get older, I believe people will learn to appreciate them more. For now, there are a lot of collectors who don't value anything past the 1960s.

@@WinningScore-e6z Thank you!

@@gdellshindig8955 I almost left the football out! Thanks for watching!

@ilovebaseballcards9334 That Spahn did look great! It wasn't mine, and I hated to give it up!

Thank you for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Banks is gorgeous, I'm very happy with it. Please check back for the 2nd half of this reveal with some really nice '75-'79s!

@jacksteinberg2150 I had never heard it as well. I think I was off on the timeline a bit because the visit with Willie was in 2002. But it came from Willie's mouth. If I had to guess, it could have been something as simple as Barry thinking aloud or just asking for family advice, rather than actual negotiations. I recall being surprised to hear it, but being thoroughly entertained by how he told the story. I wasn't going to grill him on the details, of course. I hope you enjoyed the video.

@@VintageBaseballCorner Oh I was way off then because I forgot about Willie having said this in 2002. It may have been in reference to one of Barry's contract negotiations with the Giants.

@jacksteinberg2150 That's my fault because I was thinking from memory that it was near the end of Bonds career and stated something to that effect in the video. Obviously, 2002 would have meant it was a little earlier.

@@VintageBaseballCorner Barry must have discussed with Willie the possibility of joining the Yankees after his contract with the Giants expired. Willie put the kibosh on that idea. Hence the remark about going to the Yankees would tarnish his legacy.

@jacksteinberg2150 That's kinda what Ive cleaned from it, especially after looking at the timeline and looking back. But the biggest thing I got was how Willie told the story, almost like he was chiding a young kid. Which I'm sure is at least partially how he saw Barry, even as an adult.

No argument from me. I just wish I had/could afford a little nicer copy of the '54 Bowman :)

Thank you and glad you enjoyed it!

@RichardKvorka Thank you!

@@vintagecardssteve8582 Thanks. I think the Bowman is going to look really good in a slab! Flaws and all.
