this insert set features fold-out relic cards for nine franchises that were featured in the set, with five variations each. the relics are almost all bat pieces which allows for the various logos to be burned into them. here's a representative front and back:
where jersey (and the occasional pants) fabric is used, there are no logos on that particular relic piece. the variations are:
team logo (typically numbered to 85)
hat logo (typically numbered to 50)
brand logo (typically numbered to 35)
league logo (typically numbered to 15)
stats (typically numbered to 5)
there are six players on each card who may or may not have been on the team at the same time (for me, as a dodger fan particularly of their 1977 and 1978 teams, i am happy that the full infield is represented along with dusty baker and steve yeager). as a result, while most of the cards are identified with a year, there are some that have no year listed. make sense? here's the checklist:
tt-sc bob gibson / lou brock / orlando cepeda / stan musial / steve carlton / tim mccarver
tt-bo boog powell / brooks robinson / cal ripken jr / dave johnson / frank robinson / paul blair
tt-br carl yastrzemski / carlton fisk / dwight evans / fred lynn / jim rice / rico petrocelli
tt-oa bert campaneris / bill north / billy williams / gene tenace / joe rudi / sal bando
tt-cr dave concepcion / george foster / joe morgan / johnny bench / ken griffey sr / tony perez
tt-ld bill russell / dave lopes / dusty baker / ron cey / steve garvey / steve yeager
tt-mb cecil cooper / don money / paul molitor / robin yount / rollie fingers / sal bando
tt-nm darryl strawberry / gary carter / keith hernandez / len dykstra / mookie wilson / ray knight
tt-ny babe ruth / don mattingly / joe dimaggio / lou gehrig / mickey mantle / yogi berra
i have all of the dodger cards as part of my steve garvey collection, thankfully. i've found images of many other cards online. have a look:

Hold on. I gotta pick up my jaw. These cards are awesome! And this collection/project of yours is even awesomer! Best of luck on completing it.
ReplyDeleteCan't imagine these are cheap... but I hope to one day find one of those Athletics cards for my collection. At least now I know what to look for.
