I just picked up a 64 VZ Yaz myself. I'm a huge Yaz fan and thought I would never find one in decent shape, even though the focus is off. Hope to share it in a photobucket soon.

Do you ever use Mercado Libre? It's been a while since I looked but noticed some Topps Venezuelans posted there in the past.

Yeah Im familiar with mercadolibre but I havent checked to see if any are there in quite a while, Ill go look right now!!! I cant see the Yaz, says the page isnt available for some reason


°° just checked mercadolibre, no 64s on there right now. Ill keep looking

Well, like you I am also a huge fan of 64 VZ Yaz. And I completely agree with you that there is no decent shape I have been found here and even on photobucket. I was hooping that someone will post there on photobucket which I can choose from.

Im looking for that Yaz, hopefully I can find a decent copy of it.

Just hit 90% completion on my '66 Venezuelan set, only 33 cards of 370 to go. This stretch might be a little tougher and expensive, needing Mantle, Palmer RC, and Clemente/Aaron/Mays Leaders. I just barely missed out on an opportunity to get that leader card.

thats great to hear!! Hope you can find the remaining 10% at a fair price and in decent conditions!! Good luck!

PS: im stuck at 68% of completion, I havent bought any in a while. Ill try to add some next month and Ill show them here.

It may be years before I add another one..

Thats one great looking card!!! Its so hard to find them in decent shape!!! I only have three from that set and they dont look nearly as good as yours!!!

I love those retired cards from the 67 set...maybe some day I'll be able to add the Ted Williams to my collection. I guess I spoke too soon about it being years before I pick up another Venezuelan...I have a 1964 tony C coming in. I'll post scans when it arrives.

Awesome!!! be sure to post it when it arrives!!! I also think its time to thank coimbre for having started this thread about the venezuelans so we can just see them all in one place!!!

[scottzoe]

Here it 1964 Topps Venezuealan #287 Tony Conigliaro.

It's not the best, but it's also far from the worst I've seen...
