    Hey Chris, the reason for many of the re-used photos from 1968 to 1969 was because Topps was in a contractual dispute with the players union in 1968, so they were not able to take any new photos of players early that season, so they had to rely on past photos for most of the 1969 set. This is also the reason for there being so many hat-less head shots or airbrushed hats in the 1969 set.

    Thanks for the video, I enjoyed that. Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but the Oliva '64 isn't his Rookie. He's got a 1963 "floating heads" card where his name is listed as Pedro Oliva. Tough card, much tougher than the '64. Thanks again!

  • @MikeHL78
    @MikeHL78 2 года назад +1

    Great updated vid! I collect basketball almost exclusively, so the only '60s baseball cards I own are Yaz's '60 Topps rookie in an SGC 6 (a great-looking example that I think could EASILY have been a 7) and his '61 Topps second-year card in a PSA 6 (bought it raw at a local card show in late 2019 for $10).
    Besides being a Red Sox diehard whose first trip to Fenway was in Yaz's final season (1983), I wanted both cards because Yaz's rookie season was 1961, not '60. He'd been one of the premier players in the minor leagues in 1959, and Topps included him in 1960 because it was widely believed that the Red Sox would call him up that year -- only they didn't. They waited a year. Yaz missed out by six months on playing alongside both Ted Williams and Wade Boggs.

    A couple of those pop 1 PSA 10s in which you referred were part of the Dimitri Young collection. I'm admittedly a bit obsessed with that collection. It's one thing if a wealthy person were attempting a psa 9 rookie collection but to amass all gem mint cards from the 50s & beyond now that's something.

    I use to have them all when I was a kid.We had no ideal back then that these darn things would ever be worth anything. We had no way of knowing the price of any cards back then. Almost all the cards were tossed at a hat in a circle and the 1st one in the hat got to scoop up all the other cards. All the kids bikes had cards in spokes with a wooden clothes pin attaching them. We were clueless to the value of cards. So we're are parents the usually tossed them out during spring cleaning time.

    • @jchcollins
      @jchcollins 2 года назад

      Technically true, but broadcasters who receive the Frick award are popularly considered "HOF" broadcasters. The HOF lets them make a speech just like whoever is being inducted as a player. While I see your point, I'm guessing that Uecker's card values would be pretty much the same whether he had received that award or not. Not unlike players such as Roger Maris or Thurman Munson, sometimes popularity with respect to cards doesn't matter if someone is in the HOF.

    • @888strummer
      @888strummer 2 года назад

      Winning the Ford Frick broadcasting award actually does technically make Uecker a member of the Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2003 and there have been other announcers inducted like Vin Scully and more. Personally I disagree with this, but Cooperstown makes the rules and Uecker is officially a member of the Hall Of Fame. I knew Maris and skipped right over Rose forgetting about the stupidity of Rose still not in

  • @Gronk79
    @Gronk79 2 года назад +4

    At 3:38 is Bob Uecker's RC, 62 Topps #594. The player right above him was Ken Retzer of the Washing ton Senators. Retzer was best known for catching President Kennedy's first pitch in April 1963 to start the baseball season in DC. (JFK's last season opener). Retzer made national headlines for his picture of him standing next to JFK and getting the ball autographed by JFK. For years he kept the ball in a safe deposit box until he became older, and then he displayed it at his home. As to be expected, the ball was stolen from his house with multiple suspects. He was from Wood River, Ill. (St Louis area) and passed away at 86 in Arizona. So many people have asked me to get a copy of his RC, over the years, but I always tell them to buy his 64 card because of the price differential. Good video, thanks!

    @thebatterycarlylerood 2 года назад +4

    Topps wasn't being (especially) lazy. The MLBPA was trying to find ways to raise funds and become financially self-sufficient, so they asked the players not to cooperate with Topps photographers until they could renegotiate their contracts. That's why you see them recycling images, particularly from the stars.

    • @williamthaxton2065
      @williamthaxton2065 2 года назад +1

      You are correct. The 1969 Topps set has dozens of photos that were also in 1968 or earlier. Sometimes the photos are cropped differently. Carew, Seaver, Aaron, Banks, Yaz and others are all repeat photos in 1969.

    The '62 Mantle is one of my personal favorites.

    Uecker and Pete Rose, correct? I think Maris isn’t in either actually.

    Pete Rose is one of the two who are not in the Hall of Fame. I know this because he was my hero growing up and I own 37 different Pete Rose baseball cards. As a manager he should be kicked out but as a player definitely should be in the Hall of Fame 👍👍❤️💜✝️💛💙

    Thanks so much for updating the Top 20 vids after they become outdated. It's really interesting and helpful.

    I could watch these videos all day.. love that you are showing the cards throughout the entire video … would like to see more series like this maybe a 1950s underrated / Hidden gems .. same with all the vintage decades … great work
