From: James Silva Mike Glasser sends a very fun variety pack of baseball stuff my way. I say baseball =E2=9Cstuff=E2=9D because included in the envelope was a trio of =E2=9971 Topps Coins. Jim Merritt had just finished his best seasonin the Majors with 20 wins and his only All Star game appearance. Of the 8 =E2=9970 Topps cards my favorite is probably the Maury Wills card as I am a fan of speedsters. The cards were all in the nose bleed range. Speaking of speedsters, there was a single =E2=9976 Topps card - this one of Lou Brock and he is clearly up to no good in the photo. It looks like Frank Taveras behind him and you have to know that Frank is distracted as Lou leans in the direction of third base. Of the 3 =E2=9979 Topps cards, the All-Time season (Hack Wilson) and career (Hammerin=E2=99 Hank) RBI leaders card is probably the coolest because, you know, it has pictures of Hack and Hank!

As soon as I was inside, Bob steered me to a vintage table with stacks of vintage stars for $1-2. Spent $20 there on hits and upgrades. Bob passed me a 3-hitter handshake, including a 35 Goudey! Joel Freedman found me at the same table (like OBCers often do) and he handed over another 3-hitter, including another 35 Goudey! Sure enough, Sean McGowan *also* found us at the same table. He looked for 50s Bowmans and I looked for 60s Fleer and neither of us left empty-handed. Had just enough time for two more table stops. First I found a fistful of 50 cent 1956 Topps and a $1 1962 high number at a dealer new to me and then an unexpected non-sport bounty (1930s Boy Scouts & "Going To Be" for $4 each) at Kevin Savage's table. Had to scoot after the traditional OBC lunch -- I'm sure I missed some deals and hope everyone else nabbed them.

Two '54's Ray Boone and Johnny Hopp, a '55 Rube Walker, and three '57's Cimoli, Cicotto and the original Washington ball club team card, the Senators. The city's last and only World Championship was is 1924 by this version of the Senators so I guess it's overdue for Washington. Thanks Mike!

First, Guru sends a 1966 high number Robin Roberts! Great card. Then, Wes Shepard sends a nice variety pack with three 1974/75 basketball hits, a 1971 football hit, and a cool 1972 high number JIm Kaat. Awesome. Kaat was just a few pitches away (or a hit or two from his offense) from being the 1965 World Series MVP. At least that is my view of the world. Finally, Bob Donaldson finds a way to get nine hits on my shrinking 1958 Topps list! Fantastic. Bob also asks if there are any Strawberry Fields near me. No, here on Penny Lane we have mostly blackberries although one neighbor does have some strawberries, but it is more of a patch. We do have a fine barber though! If you don't get those references, you are too young and likely named Cade or Jake. Thanks guys...appreciate the cardboard!

I try to stay involved with RAOKs by taking along a dup box. If you have something to send me, please continue to send it to our Chicago address. A friend will open our mail and let me know what shows up. He is not a card collector, so it would help if you let me know by email what you send so that I can accurately scratch it off my list, sight unseen. He will hang onto the cards for me in Chicago. If it is too difficult or lengthy to give me the card info, I'll figure it out with my friend. I hope to find some cards during our travels as well. Although somehow I have managed to miss the Chicago show 11/17 to 11/19 and Mark Macrae's St Leander show on 11/25.

These cards are very hard to find! CHUCK SALEK sends a 2004 Seattle Seahawks sked and a really special card, 67T Orlando McFarlane in DEAD MINT condition! I'm thinking of getting this card graded because I can't see any flaws in it at all. ANTHONY ARBEENY sends three beautiful condition 58T cards - McDougald, DeMaestri, and Pritchard. As I crossed these off my want list, I noticed I'm getting pretty close on the 1958 set! WES SHEPARD sends a 60T Orioles Team / 7th Series checklist, sharp condition, unchecked, really nice! Wes and I had a good heart-to-heart talk at the Chicago National about OBC and what it means to everybody. This guy is the real deal. MATT YUDT chips in with two really nice 76Hostess cards, Tanana and Concepcion. A nice shot to a set that's getting harder to find at shows. MIKE GLASSER - wow! How many cards can you stuff into a standard-size envelope with regular 1st class postage? Mike sets a Guinness book of world records mark with EIGHTEEN hits to my Topps 1960 set! How is that even KEVIN MAARTINS sends two brilliant 63T cards, Zimmerman and Fairly. Bright colors, sharp corners, tough cards. LARRY "GURU" TIPTON sends the treasured 62T Rookie Parade "Bo Belinsky Rookie" featuring Jim Bouton! This is the second 62T ultra-high number Guru's sent me in the past two weeks!

Yesterday was my sons banquet for winning the championship and was voted league MVP for hitting pitching and 1st base. It was exciting but that is notwhat we are proud of. The coaches dad served in the Navy on the DE USS Silverstein. Being a destroyer escort, they were fired upon the most of any ship in the Korean war. I sat with him for a while talking as my dad was in Korea in the Airforce. He passed about 24 years ago. My son is thinking about going in the Navy so I called him over. They talked a while, then a few more boys came over. By the time I knew it, almost all of them were there listening to every word. They went from bragging about themselves and talking about girls and you know =85 there faces in there stinking phones, to engaging with a war vet. Hope is not lost. Keep teaching the young men and woman.

Joe Pepitone and a bunch of pitchers Jim Katt, Ron Piche, and the 1962 National League pitching leaders card with Don Drysdale, Jack Sanford, Bob Purkey, Joe Jay, Art Mahaffey, and Billy O'Dell. Ron Piche is a bit unusual. He was identified on the front of the card as a pitcher, on the back as a shortstop. They listed his pitching record for the last 8 years, so I guess he was a pitcher. Thanks, Jeff. Much appreciated. Patrick Prickett sends a nice 62 Topps card of Billy O'Dell. His 1961 record gave little hint that he would win 19 games in 1962. Thanks Patrick.

From: James Silva Just got back from a Thanksgiving trip to California and found an envelope of cards from Richard Labs. 9 cards - all from the =E2=9970 Topps Football set. Included in the envelope was Len Dawson #1 in the set. I remember being in awe of Dawson and also disliking him because he was the face of therival Chiefs. Dawson had already racked up 14 seasons in the pro game and was 35 when this card came out. I was really shocked to see that because I remember him as the Chiefs QB seemingly forever and yet I was only 8 in 1970 and just getting going with my love of sports. I had to look him up and found that he was still QBing the Chiefs at age 40 when most players would have long since retired. So thanks for the great cards Richard and let=E2=99s hope all of us age like Len Dawson seemed to.

His son is NFL coach Mike Nolan; both Dick and Mike were head coaches of the 49ers. CHUCK SALEK sends a very interesting envelope.

Staub had knocked in over 100 RBIs in three of the previous four seasons (his lowest total being 96). Glad to add these to my collection! -Greg Henthorn ================= Date: Wed, 29 Nov 2017 20:35:05 -0500 To: "obc-thanks@yahoogroups.com" Subject: Hockey thanks! From: Ken M Hi all,  GEEG HENTHORN crosses off the last three cards on my 1978-79 hockey list with three blazers that definitely don't match the rest of the set. I started this set a while ago with a starter lot from eBay for the princely sum of ten bucks. I coupled that with my dupes and a group of stars I won ages ago in a Hall's Nostalgia auction. (It had something like 8 Bossy RC's in it, checklists, etc.) Between you guys and some dime boxes at various shows, I don't think I spent more than $12 to finish this one. I just checked and they're all there now. THANKS GREG!! TAYL, Ken M Sent from my not so smart phone. http://kenmorganti.weebly.com ================= Date: 30 Nov 2017 03:26:24 +0000 To: Subject: Thanks Richard & Don!

I used to have tons of these and I really loved Sugar Daddy's. I have some in a box with a few others somewhere and Peter made me start a list on my 50s/60s Oddball page. Thanks loads Peter, These are some of my favorite issues!

As I intimated in my ramble a week or two back, I've been a bit lax in getting thank yous out of late. Time to remedy that!! Big big thanks out to these fine gentlemen for enhancing my collection and bringing a lot of pleasure to this neck of the woods - LARRY TIPTON (GURU) - A 1959T high number ......#550 Roy Campanella "Symbolof DAVID LUFTIG - A 1948/49 R346 #41 Bobby Thomson, a 1957T Pee Wee Reese and a 1962T Detroit Lions team card (and an envelope with some pretty nifty Star Trek themed postage stamps!!) CHRIS TRIPLER - A 1957T Granny Hamner and UV Tigers bat relic BOB DONALDSON - 7 x 1958 Topps including a Giants team card and Aparicio Lastly, I hope you'll forgive me for offering a thank you for some UV here,but it's one that's important to me. I'd like to thank RICH NIESSEN for about 150 cards from the 2006 Topps Update set. Rich did so much to help me knock probably a couple thousand cards off my 1997-2009 lists. I'm feel incredibly bad that I was unable to thank him for this last box, which arrived quite literally a few days before he passed away. My lateness in providing thanks doesn't in any way diminish the appreciation that I feel for taking the time and effort to send cards my way. Now to get the wantlist updated!! Cheers for now!!
