Ya they probably don't make them anymore. I've had this computer for 13 years now. Runs fine for me so I haven't felt the need to go out and buy a new one. I say that, and later tonight it will probably crash on me!

2022 Topps Update - #311 Bob Gibson SP
One of the few photos of him not smiling... met him at an autograph show in Houston a while back, has the biggest hands I've ever seen! His auto is pretty sloppy, I understand why... he can't hold a pen like a normal human!
Respect.
I knew I had heard that name C.J.Carr (no relation to M.L. Carr despite of the strong resembalance LMAO!!). He is however the grandson of former Univesity of Michigan head football coach Lloyd Carr.
I'm like fountain of useless information! LOL
Another fun little find going through the stacks - 2023 Topps Series II - Dontrelle Willis AU. Something a bit more satisfying about on card v. sticker.

not sure i understand what card this is
I wsa curious about this as well. I think it is this one.

Renata Galasso?? Is that like Monarch or Larry Fritsch?
If memory serves she used to put out card sets in the 70s and 80s but I don't think they were considerd licenced. But she was a famous name in cards "back in the day".
As a matter of fact I think she used to hae weekly ads in the back of the Sporting News along with Larry Fritsch.
I think Fritsch issued a set of ***** League stars. I've never seen them anywhere in the flesh.
Renatta Galasso was a company I bought complete Topps sets from '79-81 and they had HOF'er black and white card sets included; I'll scan one tomorrow.........I think they were located in Brooklyn or the Bronx........As for the 1985 Topps Rose, I guess they made a whole set of him gleaned from shots of the past and around 1985 when he broke Cobb's record...........He wasn't the reprobate at the time of course.........
So they were a card dealer company that also made a few sets of their own on the side? Like the Card Collectors Company?
You are correct about the 1985 Renata Galasso Pete Rose set. I had never heard of it until you posted that picture of card #1. Here is the checklist for it.

You mentioned buying complete sets from that company. Man, that is really something from the infancy of card collecting. THere were a few companies that did that and that activity even predates price guides which I think first came out in 1980 or 81. Going through those ads in the back of The Sporting News was a card collectors dream back then.
