@BeautyOfAGame @BSmile @FredCHarris @SABRbbcards @gfgcom @CardsCigarbox @CardsStory @CardboardHistry @HeavyJ28 Key component in my library. Still have the first edition I bought in 4th grade. https://t.co/hEvu8Wa3b8 — PolitiTweet.org

@TimJenkins1962 @Topps I’ll buy that. — PolitiTweet.org

@VingTheDJ @nightowlcards @Angels @SABRbbcards @CardboardHistry @VintageCardsOn1 @PostWarCards @CardsStory Highly recommended blog! When I think I’ve come up with a clever baseball card insight, I often discover @nightowlcards did it years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Conflicting info on the number of teams for whom Brunet played. Using @baseball_ref, I count 15 minor league teams and 6 in Mexico (where Brunet pitched until age 49 in 1984) along with 9 Major League clubs. https://t.co/OWQg2nWYQu — PolitiTweet.org

Brunet and Matty Alou were shipped to Cards for Briles and Davalillo. Only Alou, a late-series card, was depicted in his new uni. https://t.co/4BkheX4YjA — PolitiTweet.org

Brunet spent only a month with the Pirates in 1970, but @Topps captured him in his Bucs uni. By the time this card was issued in 1971, he’d been traded to St. Louis. https://t.co/h2npLkVjOv — PolitiTweet.org

Brunet was purchased by the Seattle Pilots mid-1969, then traded to the Washington Senators in December. His 1969 card has him hatless in an Angels uni in RFK Stadium. https://t.co/NBxBw0hCaZ — PolitiTweet.org

Though he’d been with the Angels three seasons, @Topps used an airbrushed photo of Brunet from his Oriole days for his 1968 card. https://t.co/O81V2DFhCQ — PolitiTweet.org
George Bennett @gbennettpost
Here’s Brunet in an Angels uni on his 1967 card, reused in 1969. Perhaps figuring he’d be traded, @Topps went with a hatless photo. https://t.co/9kHVpCVIyg — PolitiTweet.org
George Bennett @gbennettpost
In 1964, Brunet was reacquired by Houston in May, then purchased by the Angels in August. His 1965 and 1966 cards use the same photo of him in an Oriole uniform. https://t.co/ywSPy1Gz2b — PolitiTweet.org
George Bennett @gbennettpost
Brunet landed in Baltimore in mid-1963. That might be an Oriole uniform on his hatless 1964 @Topps card. https://t.co/jHNxAI7Ur3 — PolitiTweet.org
George Bennett @gbennettpost
After five years with six minor league teams and Major League stints in KC, Milwaukee and Houston, Brunet reappeared in 1963 as a Colt .45 in a Braves uni. https://t.co/GqgqDLQDHG — PolitiTweet.org

Rookie card. Probably an actual A’s hat. https://t.co/77oo3l3EhU — PolitiTweet.org

Carpet o’ Cards: George Brunet, perennially hatless or airbrushed throughout colorful career. Never got a proper @Angels card despite 6 seasons/194 appearances with team.

How bullpen use has changed: Of Mike Marshall’s record 106 appearances in 1974, only 42 were save situations. He recorded 21 saves. Pitched 208.1 innings. https://t.co/LiAJO2KKFZ — PolitiTweet.org

@CardboardHistry The color-sorted 1955 @Topps set was one of my proudest carpet achievements. Thanks for remembering. https://t.co/vX7Nc9w1Ia — PolitiTweet.org

@CardboardHistry @redshark63 @Topps @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardsStory There will have to be a Brunet carpet in 2022. — PolitiTweet.org
George Bennett @gbennettpost
@CardboardHistry Congratulations! That set really grew on me. Always thought the individual cards are a little bland but the whole is much greater and more beautiful than the sum of its parts. Plus, it’s the set that inspired the original Carpet o’ Cards. https://t.co/aLxE9wVzSU — PolitiTweet.org

@Collector_Logan @imjlkr @Topps @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardsStory I have all those sets, but my visceral knowledge of @Topps cards stops around 1980 or 1981. — PolitiTweet.org

@nightowlcards @Topps @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @VintageCardsOn1 @CardsStory Ecclesiastes 1:9-10 — There is nothing new under the sun; also, there are very few baseball card ideas I’ve come up with that @nightowlcards hasn’t blogged about already.

@redshark63 @Topps @SABRbbcards @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @nightowlcards @VintageCardsOn1 @CardsStory Off the top of my head I’m guessing George Brunet. I see a rabbit hole… — PolitiTweet.org
