Does Anyone Want These Astros Odds and Ends

Sometimes to get a Bill Virdon I don't have yet I have to purchase a team set or team lot for the one specific card/postcard/picture.  So I end up with a bunch of odds and ends that I don't want.  First up is a bunch of Astros stuff.



There are eleven extra 8x10s. The names are handwritten on the backs but you can see who they are above.  Obviously I am keeping the Virdon.  These are an assortment of Team Issues and Wire Photos.














Five of these came with the above 8x10.  The Don Nottebart I got in a different deal and is signed.  It is way older than the rest as he only played for the Astros from 63 to 65.



If someone sees this and wants them just comment.  If I don't get and takers I'll be offering them up on Facebook later this week.  I will be offering up a bunch of Pirates stuff in the coming days.  There is way more Pirates stuff than there is Astros.

Very generous offer. You shouldn't have any trouble moving these cool items to an Astros fan.

We used to have sheets and sheets of those team head shots like the 1995 Astros ones at our newspaper sports office. They were so common I'm surprised when people sell those. We must've tossed them at some point.

Were they issued to all newspapers in case you needed a headshot of a player for some reason? So what I am hearing is there could be a Virdon sheet like that for every year?

Probably.
