Ramblings on a Friday Morning

Personally, I’m great on those classic cards however I obtain shed on modern cards. Well, a couple of weeks ago one of the cards he made use of was a Don Landrum “Newbie”.

According to TCDB, the picture on the 1963 Post/Jello Don Landrum card is not Landrum yet it’s really Bob Will.

Wait, there’s even more as they used to state in the infomercials. According to TCDB, the photo on the 1963 Post/Jello Don Landrum card is not Landrum but it’s in fact Bob Will. Poor Mr. Landrum had rather the year in 1963.

Shows exactly how points transform however you obtained to admit, this was one of the coolest cards Topps has actually done in the past years or so. We’ll end this vacation with the open-shirted Andrew McCutchen card from 2020 Topps.

Landrum reaches the Cubs for the 1963 period and Topps concerns a card of him but there is one small detail they missed. Speaking of players that looked alike, there is a small problem with the Landrum card, the main image is not Landrum however it is Ron Santo.

Directly, I’m good on those classic cards however I get lost on modern-day cards. Well, a couple of weeks ago one of the cards he made use of was a Don Landrum “Newbie”.

And that’s not also the worst Topps Cubs artificial of the 1960’s. No, that would certainly happen 3 years later when the Dick Ellsworth card featured Ken Hubbs as opposed to Mr. Ellsworth. Little detail right here as unfortunately Ken Hubbs had died in a plane crash in February, 1964.

I put Newbie in parentheses as he was still practically a rookie when that card was printed but similar to our good friend Pancho Herrera, he gets a normal card in the 1958 set before getting the “rookie notation”.

Yep, they were all component of the very early 1960’s Cardinals to start the decade, But Landrum has a little bit extra interesting card background after that tee various other people pointed out.

Don was among those apparently compatible outfielders of the 1960s. Tell me the distinction in between Don Landrum, Charlie James, Doug Clemens, Carl Warwick, Gary Kolb, Billy Genetics Smith and a couple of others. Yep, they were all component of the very early 1960’s Cardinals to start the decade, But Landrum has a bit much more fascinating card background after that tee other people pointed out.

If you are looking at 1966 commons, a genuine delight figuring this out. Later the greater number likewise has an additional much more popular fly open card. Claude Raymond reaches show his fly open. And, Topps did not deal with that so the 1967 card reveals the same issue with Mr. Raymond.
