San Diego Sports Collectors Show

PROMOTIONAL / DISCOUNT ADMISSION CARD

#6 - BABE RUTH ~ New York Yankees

issued by San Diego Sports Collectors Association in 1983

This attractive card was issued to promote the July 2-3, 1983 San Diego Sports Collectors Association (SDSCA) show. Styled like the Topps 1969 Super baseball cards but in black and white rather than color, the card has a glossy finish and rounded corners with show information on the reverse side. No doubt few cards of the baseball greats depicted were turned in for a mere 50-cent reduction in the admission cost!

A similar group of cards was issued in 1981 by SDSCA which promoted the group's August show. Different photos were utilized.

Condition: Near-Mint 

ANY number of single cards (up to and including 8" X 10" in size) will ship for the one single card USPS Ground Advantage cost IF the buyer will request and wait for a combined invoice before paying. Also available is eBay standard envelope service for qualifying orders. Questions? Email us.

Periodically we experience problems with our scanner. Today is one of those days. Depending upon which view you choose, the first scan will show horizontal lines, wavy and/or cross hatching marks. Rest assured, these are not on the card itself. 

THE LAST SCAN: Our last scan is a picture of all-time baseball great Ted Williams with The Baseball Hobbyist's Steve Mitchell at a 1983 Connecticut sports collectors gathering - Ted's very first-ever collector event. On the second day of the show "The Splendid Splinter" visited with collectors and dealers and graciously posed for this photo.

Important: Shipping Information 

Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low. Our objective is to sell cards and other things of interest to baseball hobbyists - not make money by overcharging on shipping.

  • U.S. residents: We combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate.)
  • All Other Countries: Email us first.
  • To receive your combined shipping, please wait for us to send you a combined invoice. The eBay checkout system usually displays an incorrect shipping charge. (It is normally too high.) Please do not pay for each item separately; if you pay separately, there is no shipping discount.
  • We pack your order carefully - sandwiching cards between cardboard and utilizing boxes, bubble wrap, etc., as necessary - to ensure your items arrive in the condition you expect.
  • Items are shipped the next business day after we receive your payment. We ship 5 - usually 6 - days each week.

                Payment should be made within 7 days after notification of  purchase. A-104
