Trade Mail Day

Daniel at It's Like Having My Own Card Shop was looking to add some Barry Bonds cards to is quest to get 762 different cards of the slugger.

I had recently gone through all of my purge boxes and had taken out some cards of many great players including Bonds.

The result was that I had around 40 cards that he needed.

Since I am limiting my PC collecting he agreed to send me three lovely cards that I needed.

This 1962 All Star card takes it's place beside the base Aaron as my oldest Hank Aaron cards.

I didn't have an Aaron card from the 1968 set but this is a good start as it commemorates Hank leading the league in Home Runs in 1967.  It's easy to forget that Jim Wynn had some good years when you look at the other players on this card.

Here is a 1970 Topps 1969 Home Run Leaders card to go along with the Aaron All Star card I already had.  Like Wynn on the previous card, Lee May stands out as the oddball player here.

I seem to recall that Daniel and I completed a trade about 10 years ago so we are already looking forward to 2030 for our next one.

If you are looking for a particular star player please give me a want list and we can swing a trade.  Also look at my 1976 want list and trade pages listed above if you are trying to fill any vintage sets.
