My vintage card of the week: The 1975 Topps Robin Yount RC. This card is overshadowed by the Brett RC, but Yount would be the king of this set if not for George. 3000 hits and 2 MVP awards. That’s a very rare combination in MLB history. The 1975 set is my favorite set. I love the colors and the condition sensitivity, and it’s the set of my birth year. I spent a year building a high-grade set several years ago. and this is my copy of the the Yount card..

Picked this up because of the beautifully airbrushed NY.

Starting my 1975 Topps set build, and hadn’t realized I already have this beauty. #FiredUp

I keep meaning to post a random Tigers card on Tuesdays -- you know, because it's alliterative? -- but I keep forgetting, so I'm posting one on Thursday instead 🫤

My vintage card of the week: The iconic 1975 Topps George Brett rookie card. I spent about a year building this set after acquiring an unbelievably nice starter set from Matt of Cardhound Vintage. I purchased 10 of the big cards graded in the NM range while building the set to match the condition of all the other cards. I'm not a set builder, really, but I'd always loved the design and colors of the '75 set, and it's stacked with HOFers. And it's my birth year, which is what really sold me on the idea of building the set. I completed this set about a year ago, but I still flip through the album about once a week just to admire the cards.
