[boomboom-84]

Lovin' your work Ron

Just one comment - I have a set of Ansett Cards Aus v WI, and there is 10 in the set (your list says 9).

Thanks again.

 

[COMPO]

Thanks Grant. Have updated Ansett cards. I had one back to back and missed it. Appreciate your update.

 

[James7]

The scanlens set of 72 you have listed as 1968 however this set of 72 cards is 1978 with no 1 as Peter Toohey and no 55 is a very Young David Boon
Hope this helps JAmes

 

[COMPO]

Thanks James. Have updated.

 

[COMPO]

Any updates?.

 

[RedTony91]

Ron, love your work, just wondering is there a catalogue containing all cricket card sets out there, i have seen them for afl cards but am chasing the cricket cards

 

[Carter]

1991 Peters/The courier mail/Channel 9 1990/1991 QLD Sheffield Shield Team cards! I dont know a lot about them but they are very similar to the Streets Broncos cards!
Maybe someone else has more info

Hi Ron,

attached are photos of the various Ardmona Series, Kanga Cricket and Benson and Hedges set I believe it is. The fold out cassette is interesting, all pivot in one corner, rather hard to find nowadays. Regards Russell

 

[COMPO]

That cassette is interesting Russell. First i've seen. What is on it?.

 

[Nathraider]

yes thats something different there

 

[pineneedlebeetle]

Hi Ron and Steve,

it has an intro to World Series Cricket and how it evolved, info on drop-in pitches, rules, introduces the captains and players.
I have include an open view photo for Kerry O'Keeffe fans, a young Kerry with hair LOL and some other bad hairstyles from the day.
I haven't seen many come up at all for sale but expect to pay $75 + at least on a good day.

regards Russell
