That really is a great set from a great era of baseball. I love the look of these cards.

Can't believe summer is practically over. Sounds like you got to attend a lot of ball games! That's great!

Another wonderful video combining your life with cards. Thank you for sharing with us.

Loved this video, Terry, As I mentioned in our text, this video was a.great background while I was curating my collection yesterday. I heard summer ends early in New York, we still got a good month of it here, but I do associate summer with baseball like you. I enjoy my coke (or Pepsi) as much as you do! I couldn't imagine at my age now sitting in the sun playing ball. I'd just melt in the sun. HAHA. You know how I feel about the 1957 Topps set, it's a beauty! Some of the photos are great. I wish the Mantle were nice but you brought out two of my favorites with Bob Lemon and Enos Slaughter. Ted K, if he were around today, he'd be a social media giant. That Al Kaline card is nice too! I love magazine articles from their day because now it's easy to judge how great a player was, but back then we still had questions about these guys. Bringing it to current day, as a Dodger fan I can easily say that Shohei Ohtani never hits big time home runs. I said that to a Yankees fan and he said some Yankee fans say that about Aaron Judge. 50 years ago people will read our current articles and say we knew about baseball in 2024. Anyone now can see Judge and Ohtani were two of the best. Always glad Topps never fixed that Aaron card. I just love it. Mickey, Willie and Duke, 1957 has a lot of great HOF cards. I've never noticed how nice that Brooks RC is. You own it in a. 6, how crazy! Oh look at the magazine with Mickey on the cover. Still not wearing a batting helmet. Yeah, 1957 was a simpler time indeed. A lot simpler as a collector too. A kid only had to buy one set, not worry about the grade or that It was going to ruin the card by playing with it or bringing it to school. Cards were just pieces of cardboard then. They still are actually but it's a lot more complicated. Thanks for sharing, Terry!

57 Topps is such a beautiful set with come iconic cards. Beautiful showcase here very eloquently presented. Well done. Enjoy all those days sitting in the bleachers...they go by fast.

When I lived in Oklahoma for a hot minute, I was shocked with how many cardinal fans there were why the town I lived in got the cardinals games on tv. Then I remembered KMOX was the reason for the fandom

Terry, WOW! Your exceptional cards, narration, magazine, thoughts, and how you weave it all together is truly masterful and a delight to consume as a viewer and hobby friend! 😊👊P.S. Your 1957 Topps Duke Snider is simply majestic!

Hey Terry, I yearn for the simpler days of the mid-20th century when professional athletes were more relatable & accessible than today’s “stars” who may have comparable stats but don’t have the same mystique as our unforgettable legends of the past. Scenes like Mantle signing countless autographs for kids outside Yankee Stadium or Willie Mays playing stickball in the streets of New York is unrepeatable history which once endeared fans to their hometown heroes. Now, the closest kids get to their heroes will cost them a minimum $150 at a card show. That’s why such cards as the ones you showcased today are favorites for all of us old time collectors.

I love that set too. Not many players still alive from 1957. Pete Daley from that set died on Thursday at age 94.

Glad you're enjoying your summer ☀️ I love the way you hobby! Going through your 57 set along with reading articles from a vintage magazine from that year. Cool fact that Yogi loved comic books. Excellent showcase on a fantastic time in baseball history! Thanks for sharing, Terry!

yes the world was less lazier we had walkmans 4 or so record stores, magazines with readers poll , hard tickets no pitch clock, no minimum of throw overs. nice 1957 Hoyt Wilheim , Al Kaline , nice 1957 Ted Williams, Ernie Banks, Warren Spahn , nice Frank Robinson , Ted Kluszewski , Roy Campinella nice 1957 Warren Spahn , Mantle and Yogi , Don Blasingame 1957 , Nice Homerun king , Eddie Matthews , nice 1957 of Willie Mays, Duke Snider , Don Drysdale ,, Jim Bunning , Bill Mazeroski ,, Brooks Robinson , Sandy Koufax , Pee Wee Reese ,Gil Hodges, Roberto Clemente , Enos Slaughter and Rocky Colovito, lot's of nice cards If Warren Spahn pitched in the National league he was better than Robin Roberts? Do you think playing with the Yankees is the reason Yogi was great, if Yogi had played with Detroit do you think he would have been the best catcher or Playing with the Yankees is the reason he was the best back then? Don Blasingame was he a star player that's not talked about much that we never heard of or is he a common player? do you have any of these players in the 1948 or 1949? Yogi Pee Wee Reese Gil Hodges Robin Roberts Warren Spahn any of these cards in the 1940's do you have? do you have any of the cards in the high number serise in 1967 do you have Rocky Colovitio's card 580? lately what's the card worth nice condition no creases , no surface issues in Cleveland what do you think the card is worth? now the rest of the world besides what somebody is willing to pay for it what's a very nice condition card worth? Does the dog bite? by us in the morning past 4 days minus Saturday it's been around 60 or so lower state New York!!!! Ice cold coke sounds nice and refreshing!!!!

Great video Terry! Thank you for taking us through 1957 with such a cool magazine along with some amazing cards! Gotta love that set! Especially the Kluszewski and the Robinson.😁

Hi Terry, watching your videos always takes me back to a time when life was simpler and honestly relaxes me, thanks for that! My wife knows if we are taking a walk and there happens to be a ballgame with teenagers playing I am going to stop and watch a few batters, if I am walking alone I have been known to watch a few innings. I enjoy watching kids that age play for the love of the game, I can remember being that age and riding my bike to the complex to play my game, after my game I would stick around watching my friend's games and chasing foul balls ( if you returned a foul ball to the snack stand you got a free snow cone!) Banks did change the way Short stops were viewed, although Vern Stephens put up some amazing power numbers 10 years before Banks. Williams was such an amazing hitter, winning batting titles in his late 30s, imagine what his numbers would have been had he not given up those prime years to the military. As great as Spahn was, he is still underappreciated in my view. What an amazing career! I just finished reading the Berra book A Life Behind the Mask, it goes into great detail on how bad Yogi was in the beginning. The Yankee pitchers hated it when he was behind the plate. Dickey worked with him and he became one of the best catchers in history. It is hard for me to believe that 57 was the only MVP of Aaron's career, if he had played in New York think he would have won more! I rank Mathews as the #2 third baseman of all time behind Mike Schmidt. Enjoyed the video, have a great week!

With all of the advancements of today's photography, for me it feels that old photos have more character. They seem to have more charm and interesting backgrounds. The magazine with Mantle on the front I liked. Mantle is clearly the subject matter. Now magazines tend to cram so much information into a cover that it takes away from the subject matter. I see that with TH-cam thumbnails too sometimes. The 1957 Big Klu is easily my favorite card from that set. I doubt Topps will ever have an image where a batter is showing his bunting stance like Ashburn again. I don't mind in game photos, but I also like the up close photos too. Enjoy your Sunday and the remained of the baseball season.

Thanks for sharing and kudos on your great collection. I really love the simplicity of the design as well as the great player photos of the '57 set. I've been chasing the Banks and Aaron cards for so long trying to find just the right ones.

Fantastic video and cards, Terry! So many iconic cards in this “simple” set, in my opinion. Some legendary rookie cards and renowned images, like on the Big Klu. Well done, my friend! Have a great weekend!

My oh my Terry, as always just simply fantastic. Well said and put about simpler times. Absolutely love how you curate your collection. I picked a magazine a month or so ago that i need to share in a video and every time i see it in my room it reminds me of you. I think the portrait shots throughout the 57 sets are my favorite. As you said they are simple beautiful images with amazing smiles. Thanks for sharing Terry. Have a good weekend. Happy to hear your youngest son wants to have another go around with baseball. I’m headed to my Saturday batting practice in a few hours and so looking forward to it. Like you said when the kids hit that ball it makes them sooooo incredibly happy!!! 😊

Wow Terry as always an exceptional showcase and so perfectly narrated. Ironically I just watched this video after filming one reacting to your last video and in it I talk a little about my love for the ‘57 set and the perfect simplicity and innocence it conveys. Personally it’s my second favorite set of all time and it’s almost a coin flip with ‘53 bowman color. Outstanding job as always Terry. Have a great weekend

Another fantastic video Terry. Simpler times for sure. Those fantastic cards help tell the story. I wish I had been around for those times. I only have memories of what my grandparents told me about those days. The 57 set is a beautiful looking set. Thanks for sharing.

Terry a great video of the magical year for my Milwaukee Braves. I enjoyed njoy your narrative.

Once again, a beautiful expression of family, and cards. Love it, and totally agree with the sentiment on both counts. On a hobby note, the 1957 Topps set just doesn't get enough love. Thanks for shining a light on it.

This is an iconic set for so many reasons. But the hof Rc’s in it the tops for me . Thanks for the mlb time lapse of a great 56

Well done 👍 🎉

Terry, I just love your videos, and in the cadence in, which you speak. I feel like, you bringing me back to an era, which I'm not from, but you paint the picture as if I was. Great cards. Hope you have a great weekend.

I really enjoyed this video. I love the simpler times when players played bc they just loved the game and money wasn’t their number one priority like it is now. I just joined ur channel and I believe i will continue to enjoy them💃👏 Thanks again

Hi Terry. You know what I like to do after a hard day of work? I like to listen to a TJMAC video. I borrowed that one from Mangini of course😁. Thanks or showing us your 57 beauties. My modest pc has a graded Aaron and Banks and ungraded Mays and Clemente. I love the stories you shared.

Hi Terry! What a beautiful collection you have of ‘57 Topps. All of them just looked really sharp. We’ve discussed this before but it’s still amazes me how much Robin Roberts gets passed over when talking about as one of the best of his generation. Blasingame has some beautiful cards. The ‘59 and ‘57 are my favorites of his. I enjoyed how you referenced him. That’s great your youngest is giving baseball another chance. I’m a little jealous of your fall temperatures. We had it for a week but back up to over 100 degrees heat index this weekend. Have a great weekend, Terry!

Great video, really like the 57’ set. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Hi Terry! Sounds like you had a great summer sharing and creating memories with your family through a shared love of sports!! I really enjoyed watching my kids play sports when they were growing up, I have so many fond memories looking back on those days! Man, you’ve got a nice collection of beautiful looking 57 Topps cards! The magazine gives nice insight and a great glimpse of the 1957 season! I love the image in the magazine of Warren Spahn with that big old leg kick! Nice looking Don Blasingame card, I am not familiar with him, great looking image! Enjoyed as always my friend! Take care!

This was a pleasure to listen to and watch. Thank you Terry!

I love this set; greatly under appreciated.

Aloha TJMAC ! Great story ! I think the simplicity & innocence in all sports was lost around 1972 with the summer Olympics terrorism, which brought tighter security in all sports. Sports seemed to get more Corporate at this time which meant more money. Glad you get to see your kids play. From what I see on YT kids nowadays act pretty poorly as do the patents. Thanks for putting in a couple posed cards as opposed to all "head shots" Ha. Great Show Terry

6th like Terry. Don Blasingame as you probably know would be the glue that solidified the ‘61 Reds lineup after his early season trade from the Giants. The ‘57 set is one of my faves. But oddly I have very few cards from this set in my collection! That was remedied by picking up Billy Pierce’s 57 topps a couple days ago. Sure is nice to see you’re well, and this video was a great one. You have a beautiful set of ‘57 topps cards. Take care Terry.

The 57 set has really grown on me. A great combo of staged action and portrait. Also reminds me of snap shots of that era which gives a great vintage feel.

Gave a video like. Enjoyed seeing all these 1957 Topps baseball cards. I love seeing that Gil Hodges. I enjoyed the display and hearing your thoughts throughout the video. Have a great weekend, Terry.

Fantastic video as always Terry. What a super 10 year time frame. The 60's was quite a decade. I am sorry I missed that time. My parents would always tell me about it. I loved hearing those stories. As always you showcased such amazing cards to go along with your narration.My favorite time frame would be the 70's. I started to collect cards when I was a little kid late in the decade and I am trying to put together all of the sets from that time. I do understand your need to balance time. Life and family always come first. I always said if making videos becomes a job and it is not fun I will stop doing them. I always look forward to your videos. Thanks for sharing.

Garvey was one of my dads favorites , so that has made him someone I pc . I've gotten a ton of his autos over the years and would be honored to send one your way if you will send me your address

Just great Terry! Really enjoyed this! I love vintage magazines and reading them. Loved seeing those '64 Philadelphia cards and hearing the stories about the 11 meanest in football! Thanks my man!

Howdy Terry ! Great Show. Still the Best presentation of cards on YT. The background, lighting & color come out amazing, the cards Pop. I only leave this comment because you have been showing up in my feed on other guys channels. You are a big influence& inspirationfor many besidesme. But since I'm here today, I'll tell what 10 years I'd choose, its easy, you already can guess, The 50's. Below is just one of the messages I sent to fellow creators. Stay safe & Happy travels, your Pal Tom. Hello CK ! (Cincinnati Kid) Great Show & display. Nice to look at while you talked today. Terry is the one who inspired me to start my Family channel. I remember when you started yours. Like you, I fly my own plane, sail my own boat. Because of time, I cut out alot, even Terry, but also out of respect for his & yours time. Terry knows me well enough that he knows what my comments would be to him. Glad you are finding your way. Again great display. C ya Kid ! All the Best Terry. Peace

As always, great cards, and even better stories! Thank you for sharing.

My 10 years would be a little earlier than that, but a great bunch of cards also.

Terry, what a wonderful way to highlight some epic sports history, supported by stunning card displays! Well, this must be part of the reason why you were voted to a well-deserved All-Star Coach status! Congrats! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐So many fantastic looking cards in this one! Your 1969 Joe Namath is super cool! Restoring the balance, I love it! I think I have been getting there, slowly but hopefully surely, myself! Take care, my collecting brother! 😊👊

You are an all star my man! Life gets crazy but we have our cards to escape!

Fantastic video as always Terry. I also revisited your Sports Card Room video. The nostalgia & deep meaning of each display, conveys your passion & history, which I appreciate. For me, the 50’s provide me with the most collecting joy & why my favorite set is 55 Bowman baseball. It’s hard to describe but it’s an idealistic era for me. Cards of those years just bring something intangible in my joy of collecting. Trust you’re having a great week my friend, take care.

What a wonderful video and thoughts about your displays. If I were to pick a 10 year span it would be 1956-1965. These were awesome years for the Dodgers and it spans 1956 which represents the 1955 WS team through great WS teams in LA. Get a Jackie Robinson at the end of his career plus the years of Koufax /Drysdale dominance. You also get the transition from Brooklyn to LA and the last years of Brooklyn players after they came out to LA. Great idea for a video and so fun to think about. Great inspiration for my next display!
