Very Scarce Near Set of 1972 Pittsburgh Press “Buc-A-Day” Pirates 21 of 25.
Lot 228. Very Scarce Near Set of 1972 Pittsburgh Press “Buc-A-Day” Pirates 21 of 25. Issued as part of the newspaper in March 1972, these “cards” picture a Pirates player in street clothes and provide biographical and career information. About 3 3/8” wide, they vary in length from 9 ¼” to slightly over 11”, depending on the amount of biographical data. The missing players are May, Hebner, Miller and Hernandez. All the key players are here – Clemente, Stargell, Mazeroski, Ellis, Blass, Oliver, Moose, Sanguillen, Veale, etc. These features were neatly trimmed from the newspaper; in almost all cases the border is complete. Technically, they grade vg to vg-ex, with an occasional corner chip or border tear. They look better and are all the more desirable because of their scarcity.
Winning Bid $366.
