Have to think only Reds fans would remember this…

[2] Stadium Club and Pinnacle Barry Larkin cards

If interested DM me. There are zero requirements for these free cards. 🇺🇸and🇨🇦only. If claimed I’ll reply below.

1954 Topps Chuck Harmon RC

This is the oldest card in my collection. Chuck was the first African American to play for the Reds and that came as a pinch hitter.

On this day in 1985, under a pink late-summer sky, Pete Rose collected his 4,192nd career hit to pass Ty Cobb and become MLB’s all-time hit leader. In the first inning of a 2–0 win over the Padres, Rose singled to left off Eric Show. In front of a hometown crowd—and his son Petey—he was brought to tears during a nearly nine-minute standing ovation.

This photo hung in my Papaw’s basement since I was two years old. When he passed in 1999, my grandma made sure it came to me. Back in 2020, I had plans to get it signed by Pete, but the signing was canceled due to COVID, and I never got the chance. Still, the piece carries so much meaning as it is—both for baseball history and for childhood memories.

On this day in 1924, Reds legend Ted Kluszewski was born. Nicknamed “Big Klu,” he was one of the strongest and most feared hitters of his era. I remember listening to my grandparents and aunts and uncles talk about him, how much of a presence he was on the field and how beloved he was in Cincinnati.

As a Reds fan, I had to pick up the iconic 1957 Topps of Big Klu — such a classic card of a player who left such a lasting mark on the franchise.
