There's that "whiff" stat again.... what does it mean??
I believe strikeout?There's that "whiff" stat again.... what does it mean??
I was thinking that but baseball terms were so proper. I didn't think they'd go to using the word whiff... "And that's 6 whiffs for Skenes through 5 innings..."I believe strikeout?
Somebody dove into a thesaurus for strikeout....."whiff" and "fanned" must have been at the top of the list!I was thinking that but baseball terms were so proper. I didn't think they'd go to using the word whiff... "And that's 6 whiffs for Skenes through 5 innings..."
I have no idea what this disc books for but it is a REALLY cool item. Book value is not the only factor that makes collecting enjoyable. Half Century old items like this of an A-List HOFer are. And yet 99% of collectors will have zero interest in something like this because it is not Ohtani, Judge, Trout............or whatever players are the flavor of the month.They spelled his name right on this one, but then go and misspeell our hometown!! I may write a letter to that Crane, by-gum!!

Wanna take a wild guess at it's Beckett Value??? I'll give you a hint... Walter Payton (SP) - $15, Roger Staubach - $4I have no idea what this disc books for but it is a REALLY cool item.

I was going to guess $2 which is criminal if correct.Wanna take a wild guess at it's Beckett Value??? I'll give you a hint... Walter Payton (SP) - $15, Roger Staubach - $4
Not even close my friend... 60 centsI was going to guess $2 which is criminal if correct.
You gotta be kidding? That's insane.Not even close my friend... 60 cents
You gotta be kidding? That's insane.
The fact that the short printed Walter Payton is only $15 should have tippped me off. There were only 4 Walter Payton items produced in 1976......his Topps RC, and discs by Crane, Saga and Pepsi which all have the same picture of him on it. Nothing was made of him before 1976. And yet 99% of collectors would walk right by one of those discs at a show for $15 figuring there were better buys of new cards with 12 adjetives in their description.
60 cents! Holy.................!!!!
i remember getting some discs in i think holsum bread in the early 80's (80 or 81) and i know they did a lot of those in that late 70s early 80s. At an antique store here in Milwaukee I saw some rather large discs that were similar but they wanted like 80 bucks for the whole set. Which was decent but not in the budget....hahahaYup... if there were more HOFers or Cowboys in the set Id go for it. Love these discs!
I like the size of these. Just a cool promo oddball item. I may try getting the Walter Payton, but that would be it... I saw today there's also a baseball set of Crane's Discs from '76. Now that set has some HOFers!!i remember getting some discs in i think holsum bread in the early 80's (80 or 81) and i know they did a lot of those in that late 70s early 80s.

What's pop???MSA produced those odd ball discs.........They only had a license with the players unions and not the leagues......I have a set of the 1978 Pepsi glove discs that they use to stick in the 8 packs of pop.....
Seriously?What's pop???
