1970 Topps                                 1970 Topps All-Star                        1970 Topps Scratch-Off

The Topps offerings from 1970
 
 
 
 
 
 

1970 Topps Super
 
 
 
 
 
 

            1971 Dell                                       1971 Topps                                      1971 Topps LL

A nice little stamp from Dell and those tough to keep sharp black borders from Topps.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                  1971 Topps LL                                                  1971 Topps Super

The 71 Super is pretty neat.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                 1972 Topps                                  1972 Topps In-Action                          1972 OPC In-Action

 Not everyone cares for the 72 psychedelic style. The OPC is identical on the front and completly different on the back. So why'd I scan both fronts? Well, the backs are pretty boring, really.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

             1973 Topps                                                1974 Topps

Yaz looks pretty good in these mid-70s Topps issues. He's got the serious sideburns going. Look at that club he's swinging on the 74 card!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                     1975 Topps                                    1975 Topps Mini                                     1975 Topps MVP

Regular and Bite-sized.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

               1975 Hostess                                1975 Kellogg's                                  1976 SSPC

Three new competitors for Topps in the 70s. That SSPC set had some nice looking shots in it. The Yaz is a nice portrait.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                                                        1976 Hostess Panel                                                                                      1976 Topps

I actually ate the Ding Dongs that came with this Hostess panel. They were pretty good.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                                                  1976 MLBPA                                                                              1977 Pepsi Disc w/glove tab

A couple of items donated by Mr. Todd Knowles.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                                                             1977 Hostess Panel                                                                                       1977 Topps TBTC

Real nice selection of players on this Hostess Panel.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                         1977 Topps                                      1978 Topps                                          1979 Topps

I always thought the Topps cards of the late 70s were kinda like the stadiums of the same era.Cookie cutter variety.
 
 
 
 
 
 

          1979 Kellogg's

This Kellogg's is a corrected version. The error shows Yaz with 6 million games played and the corrected version gives him 5,999,999. (Well, I might be off a bit on the numbers, but you get the point.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

           1979 Topps Comic

I don't have anything to say about this.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Right below is a record album sent to me by Rick Svetcz. I haven't played it yet. It's still in the shrink wrap. Creative scanning and pasting give it that scotch taped together look. There was another Fleetwood album put out a few years before. This one concerns Yaz getting his 3000th hit. Note the drawings show Yaz in his late 70's stance, not the early 60's one that ruined the strokes of a generation of Massachusetts kids that tried to copy it.
