hi ebayje...

welcome to the board

I have the following 1968 topps :

#80 Rod Carew

#250 Carl Yastrzemski

I can only put one scan in a post at one time, so here is the Rod Carew scan (Yaz will be in next post)

Ebayje.... and here is Carl Yaztrzemski


Let me know what you think.

Nice sharp corners on the Carew.

Corners don't look too bad on Yaz

wow alot of responses so soon, Thank you guys and i am in any 68 topps i am collecting the set for my son i figured a year with a bench and a ryan rc in the same year along with maris mantle aaron ect would be a great thing to pass down ti him! Hope to have some good chat about cards sports whatever talk to you guys later!

Hi Scott...just out of curiosity, how close are you to finishing out that set.

Very rare to see someone have an entire set of a particular year of vintage baseball cards.

Nice thing you are doing for your son!!!


:hop:

one day I am going to put together a 1972 set the year I was born, I figure it will be a challenge

Welcome to the boards ebayej!!!

Welcome to the forum, enjoy your stay :)

Scott's a very cool guy. Chatted with him via email about his trying to get the entire 1968 Topps baseball set.

Boy, talk about trying to fill out a collection, huh?

Gotta have $$$$, even if the cards were in average condition.

Well i have about 300 cards of the 587 stilll need that ryan mantle and clemente and mays for the main ones if i dont find someone who wants to trade for the ryan i will buy it last as kind of a final gesture. I think that will be a great way to "cap" it off :)

I think your best shot (short of being lucky enough to buy it at an auction you attend in person) is to find it on Ebay.

Then of course, there is the little thing call "fraud" that often happens on Ebay, esp. with trading cards, lol

funny enough about 75% of the cards i have now i bought from ebay the other 25% is trades honestly i think ebay is the best and the worst things to happen in this hobby

agree about that. With Ebay, you've got dealers fighting with each other to sell their cards, and yet make some profit.

Not to mention how easy it is to commit fraud
