Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

1973 Topps–Gura, Astros, Jackson, Splittorff

I’m collecting the 1973 set, slowly but surely. This post is the latest in my quest for the completion.

  • Card Facts – Larry Gura – Chicago Cubs – Card #501
  • Purchase Price – free (Trade with “Crinkly Wrappers”)

  • Purchase Price – $.17 (Ebay lot 6/$1.04)

Creased and miscut, but works for me.  If I get too picky, I’ll replace it but for now it’s just fine.

Sorry about the word verification, but blogger sucks at filtering out the comments as of late. As bad as their last update is.
