Early TV Shows

 I have a binder that is full of non sports cards.  I've collected these cards mainly for nostalgia of my 

life.   I probably watch too much tv and this first batch of cards is from my early years.



My 3rd grade teacher was Mrs Gould and her cousin was the trainer for Clayton Moore's

horse, Silver.  We would get almost daily stories of Silver's exploits.  Kimosabe.

1949


Soupy Sales was a Saturday morning kids show. Characters were White Fang and Pookie.

Every week Soupy would get a pie in his face.

1953


Matt Dillon, Chester, Kitty, Doc, and Festus were all favorites.

1955


Zorro on TV starred Guy Williams.

1957



Both Andy Griffith and the Three Stooges debuted in 1960


Jeopardy with Art Fleming as host began in 1964


Ron Ely was Tarzan along with Cheeta

1966

Error Cards

 It's been awhile.  About three months I bought a collection of cards from 1991 - 2006.  All sports

and mainly sets and inserts.   There were 120 - 5000 ct boxes.   That's a lot of cards.  About 3 weeks ago  

I finally sold the last of the cards and doubled my investment.  In all those cards I found only two new 

bubble cards that I didn't have.  It was fun, but a lot of work.


Probably not going to be getting many new cards so my posts will be from existing collection I've

amassed over the last 35 years.


This post is from my Error card binder.  Enjoy.

It seems for a couple of years Milt Cuyler and Sweet Lou  were the same
1992 and 1994



Last name they got right.  But this is Tino.


More Tiger errors, Travis Fryman


Not Shawn but Alex Gonzales


One of the two well known rookie errors of Carlos Beltran, not Juan Labron

Rookie card of Vizquel, not him.






























One Dime Box at show
