1981-1989 Hall of Fame Metallic Plaque cards
This special set of (204) Metallic Plaque cards included every player, executive,
manager and umpire who was a member of the Hall of Fame thru 1989.
Each 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" gold anodized aluminum card bears an exact replica of the
player's official Hall of Fame plaque.
The sets, produced in very small quantities and LIMITED TO ONLY 1,000 MADE,
were sold by the Baseball Hall of Fame thru it's gift shops between 1981 and 1989
and came in a special "faux-leather" embossed 3-Ring Binder.
It has been reported that many cards were damaged in production/distribution
so the number actually available of any one card is likely under 1,000.

Autographed 1961 Topps Baseball Cards Checklist & Values
Following autographs have auction house LOA's (Letter of Authenticity) from
hobby's top vintage card authenticators for auction houses PSA/DNA & James Spence !!!
The 1961 Topps baseball card set (#1-#598) only had 587 cards
because of missing numbers. Also there are 2 cards #463
(#463 Braves Team card was to be card #426).
Ugh !!! The 1961 Topps capless players !!!
Picture your grand-dad. Without a cap. Life was obviously much tougher
back then. Baseball expansion created the problem.
Los Angeles Angels added, Washington Senators became Minnesota Twins,
and Washington got a new Senators franchise.
The autographs actually make the "capless" cards more attractive !!!
