Here is the link to my last update from November of last year. Once again I am slipping slipping with this ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK! Procrastination is making this post closer to being a Sunday post than a Saturday, not quite though still a few hours before that happens.
I made a big jump with some purchases from Sportlots stores. But Ouch not yet at 50% but oh so much closer. I also got some 1965 OPC cards (2 Senators and 1 Orioles Rookies pair) on 25 Mar. I really need to get all the Senators from that set, as well as the Orioles (for both sets), the team cards, some of my PC players, and the World Series cards. I might as well build the OPC set also. Right now I only have 4 of those though.
Here are the cards:
192 Jim Coker Reds
213 Jim Davenport Giants
223 Dan Osinski Braves
227 Bobby Klaus Mets
229 Lou Clinton Angels
230 Ray Sadecki Cardinals
235 Chuck Hinton Indians
237 Bernie Allen Twins
251 Billy Herman Red Sox Mgr
283 Fred Whitfield Indians
288 Jack Hamilton Tigers
392 Bob Friend Pirates
Interesting the back of Bob Friend's card does not have a cartoon/comic making the back of his card look almost like a manager's card.

Bonus 1965 OPC Cards:
I already have the Topps versions of these, even the 1965 Orioles Rookies card. These '65 OPC cards count into my Senators PC, Orioles PC and Kirk/Curt niche PC

Great progress. I'm excited for you. Absolutely love this set... and only a few more cards until you cross into the 2nd half of this set build.
ReplyDeleteThe regular '65 Topps set is already difficult enough to work on, I couldn't even imagine trying to build it's OPC counterpart.
ReplyDeleteYeah I think I'll be lucky enough to find the OPC Senators and guys who were Senators at one time. I don't even have all the Topps Pre-1965 Senators and guys who would be Senators later.
