A Basketball Post

A few days ago Joe Schlabotnik showed his entire basketball collection in one post.  He asked the question, "Does anybody else have a similarly “exclusive” collection?"  Well, I can't say that I do.  I have more baseball cards than anything but I do have a fair amount of cards from the other three major sports.  My childhood collection of basketball cards was pretty much confined to a couple of years, 1971-72 and 1972-73.  It was at this time that I fortunately started to take care of my cards so these are close to pack fresh.  Here's a baker's dozen of my favorites, starting with my home team.

  2. Basketball jones... I got a basketball jones...

    Nice! I'm impressed by the firepower of that card lineup in that I've heard of everybody except a couple of the Bulls.

    That Hawks uniform that Pistol Pete is wearing is... aaaahhhhh.... *interesting*. (Cough).
