Team card and stars first, then managers, then the rest of the players with the Rookie Stars at the end, being careful to leave spaces for the last few that are still missing.<br />Binders are always begun with the league leaders, World Series, checklists, and misc rookies in the front. Then teams organized by their finish that year.GCAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14713246271197550543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-19544886928596715942011-07-24T11:37:21.240-04:002011-07-24T11:37:21.240-04:00Jim ~

But once I've made it a set "to complete" then I put it in order by number.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-37029870399027268732011-07-24T10:54:44.827-04:002011-07-24T10:54:44.827-04:00Am I the only one who has their cards in binders a...Am I the only one who has their cards in binders arranged by team, and not numerically?Jim from Downingtownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01537007940455183397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-6497069778128593512011-07-24T09:08:10.773-04:002011-07-24T09:08:10.773-04:00In binders of nine card sheets is how God intended...In binders of nine card sheets is how God intended cards to be displayed, not in acrylic slabs with labels I say. The '59 set page with Brooks and Frank Robinson together with Lou Burdette is sweet. But the best page in my '59 binder had the Gibson, Cuellar and Killebrew rookies. It's a damn museum piece.<br /><br />Great post Night Owl.

I just can't get used to the hairless Fingers... he looks unfinished. Airbrushing should work too, as it'd be in the spirit of the times of the card.<br /><br />(<em>don't worry folks.
