@phungo2008 That’s probably Jim Kaat in this Chambliss card. https://t.co/rJhX2NHKmn — PolitiTweet.org

The first players that spring to mind in the Militello genre are '80s-'90s guys, which is a little out of my collecting wheelhouse. But I'm giving it some thought. — PolitiTweet.org

@GlobeChadFinn @BostonGlobe Evocative column! At one point I had two complete 1978 sets entirely pulled from packs. Indelible images. — PolitiTweet.org

@redshark63 @VintageCardsOn1 @CardsCigarbox @nightowlcards @SABRbbcards @CardsStory @PostWarCards @CardboardHistry @cardboardicons @wthballs Another example of @wthballs being better than the real thing. I remember being sincerely bummed in ‘73 when @Topps went with AL/NL leader on same card rather than top three in each league. Still bothered by it. — PolitiTweet.org

Killebrew as a Royal with Rodney Scott, who pinch ran for him after he reached base on an error in his final plate appearance 9/26/1975. https://t.co/Cc1tBqr9qk — PolitiTweet.org

@BrianBrenberg Homework assignment! Remember that a lot of years Mantle was among the AL leaders (including Triple Crown 1956 season) were before @Topps made LL cards. — PolitiTweet.org

George Bennett @gbennettpost

@fjl_777 .@Topps didn’t make a card of Killebrew in 1957. He spent most of that year and 1958 in the minors. — PolitiTweet.org
