    And given it's size and all of the airbrushing you'd figure this set would ooze variations but it doesn't... There are a few variations however they have nothing to do with the airbrushing, but rather the black border that lines the photo.. On a handful of the cards that black border is broken, but there isn't much in the way of value.. The other variations are the notorious Al Kaline "band-aid" variation - and the coaches cards with different shades of Orange - that - and a few coaches are missing ears on some cards and not on others.... Nothing of any real value outside of the Kaline.

    Keith: I came across your channel only yesterday and so wish I did years ago! What lectures in collecting you deliver! I have returned to the hobby in 1989, picking up from when I first purchased a nickel pack of 1962 Topps baseball cards-I still remember being on my way to school (Grade One), opening it, and I was hooked! I collected mostly hockey being a Montrealer, completing the iconic Parkie and Topps/OPC sets, carefully storing each year from the set in the colourful retail box they were sold in (I convinced a couple of store owners to put them aside for me when empty). We moved from Montreal to Vancouver in 1967 and of course, all was lost... Regardless, I love what you do-keep it up!

    You are so brilliantly stupid you do not even acknowledge manufacturers themselves admitted cards came out in different sizes, especially vending machine cards were notoriously slightly smaller, and there were differences between factories, so they would not all fit snuggly in a slab .... Sherlock. The availability of cards has jumped because more and more people are dragging them out of their closets to sell them online. End of story. The slight size variation means NOTHING Sherlock, because size variances are normal. This is just people with cards whining because their card values dropped so they are looking to disqualify other cards to drive up their own value, so YOU guys are the fraudsters.

    I've collected baseball cards since the 60's era and, I'm now 62 years young. The 70's brings back a lot of great memories even though Topps cards were never too good for me. We can bicker about who was the best card company in 1973 or any era but, the truth and facts remain the same. I think in 1951-1957 was when Topps was the very best, the old red background Bowman really produced some dandy cards: Sandy Koufax, Roger Maris, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobbs just to name a few.....I know! I never mentioned Mickey Mantle, sorry but, I never liked him as a baseball player, in fact most of his own teammates with the Yankees called him a name you hardly ever hear " The Villian", it was not just his confidence, he truly had an attitude no one understood. Which takes me back to the 60's when I used to go the Shea Stadium to watch the Mets play, The great one Willie May's stood out for me, the subway series between the Mets vs Yankees. They took down Shea Stadium, a childhood memory for me, now called Tinker Field. If you want to talk about a story or Topps to tell, I've seen many get out of the hobby because today 2024, it's simply not as popular as it was in the 70's, 60' or 50's simply because Topps has truly the one that lost thier way by thier own demise. I remember some of these facts you brought up in your commentary. I'm not the one that can tell you directly why Topps is losing out but, I can only give you a hint on how they can gain more credibility and, popularity again. They need to give card buyers today more chances to obtain more history of the older picture with the old red background: by putting an older picture on new card stock say: 1 in different products they sell, stop talking about foil board, relics or autographs on thier boxes and surprise the hobby again. The reason why I say this is because thier products have become so expensive with nothing to show for, us old timers keep losing out and, it's why people are leaving the hobby, more thefts are occurring, you want truth and, fact.....? These are the facts!!!

    Just one's opinion, painting in spots on cards and trimming cards is altering, just removing glue, wax, gum stains if one can I wouldn't say is altering. Example, I buy a 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass original paint car, I'm gonna wash, wet sand and buff that car. Is that altering a car? Yes, repainting a car is restoration nor preservation.
