Remembering ‘Newk’: 5 Cards of Don Newcombe

February 19, 2019 By Bob D'Angelo

Don Newcombe, who died Tuesday at the age of 92, was an imposing, hard-throwing pitcher for the Brooklyn Dodgers. He won 20 or more games three times during his 10-year major-league career and 19 games in 1950. He might have topped the 20-win plateau a few more times, but he lost the 1952 and 1953 seasons to military service. “Newk” stood 6-foot-4 and weighed 220 pounds. … [Read more...]

Clemente Still Revered By Fans and Collectors

September 30, 2015 By Bob D'Angelo

Roberto Clemente 1956 Topps

Roberto Clemente was a great baseball player, but his throwing arm was extraordinary. I know. I saw it happen. And Joe Morgan was the victim. On July 21, 1970, at the Astrodome, Clemente’s Pirates were facing Houston. Jesus Alou was on first base in the bottom of the first when Morgan sent a stinging line drive single to right field. Alou went to third on the play, and … [Read more...]

September 15, 2011 By Rich Mueller

Considered one of the best large card sets ever produced by Topps, the 1956 baseball set was the last one to feature hand-colored drawings. During 1956, Topps was to hire a professional photographer to take photos for the next year’s collection, which was to be the first to use color images.
