Stanford Wantlist

A wantlist of Stanford Alumni. Focusing on Topps Flagship unless Topps never gave him a card in which case anything goes. I’m not against other brands, I’m just not focusing on them unless they cover something that Topps didn’t. The main reason is that I treat Topps Flagship as the “card of record” (so to speak). The other reason is that there have been so many sets—especially in the years I missed away from the hobby—that I need to keep the search parameters in check.

I’m also looking for oddball, regional, and non-English-language releases for anyone on here. I have a few of these listed but the wonderful thing about this hobby is that there’s so much to discover in oddball land. Also, while there are a couple Topps NOW cards on this list they’re not actually cards I’m actively seeking unless the price is right.

Anything red is part of the original Topps searchlist.
Anything blue is a player who’s not represented in my binder yet.
Anything green represents a missing player/team/year combination.
Anything grey is a card which I have a reprint of.
Anything struckthrough is supposedly in transit.
Anything italicized is supposedly “on my pile” with a trading partner.

No modern Flagship cards

Sort of the opposite of the High Draft Picks crew of players who never made it to the bigs yet got cards. Some of these guys exist in minor league team sets which I haven’t researched much at all. Many of the older guys show up on various pre-war cards which, while cool, are all probably outside the scope of this project both in terms of availability and affordability—though I am perfectly happy including reprints in this collection. As such this section is more for research purposes than card-acquisition purposes.

No Cards At All

A subset of the “No Modern Flagship” section listing guys who played in the majors but whose names return nothing on the Trading Card Database. I don’t count them as part of the project since there’s nothing to collect but I need to list them just the same.

Bob Reece—Montreal 1978 (made a custom for the project)
Harvey Shank—CA 1970 (have autographed index cards for the project)
Charlie Swindells—StL 1904

Grey areas

Players who went to Stanford but never played on the team or who played on the team but ended up transferring to other schools afterwards. I’m adding them to the albums as I encounter cards (especially oddballs) but they’re not a priority. Still, getting the run of flagship cards would be nice.

Bobby Brown (Have 1950B–1952B)
1949 Bowman #19

Shawn Greene (Have 1992–94T, 96T, 98–08T)
1995 Topps #514
1995 Topps Traded #13T
1997 Topps #214
2003 Topps #344 NL Runs Scored Leaders
2003 Topps #345 NL Home Run Leaders

Bill Wakefield (completed 1964T–1966T)
Ken Williams (completed 1987D–1992S)

Completed players

While no longer part of the explicit wantlist, I’ll always interested in non-Flagship Topps cards, non-Topps cards, and especially oddball cards of these guys. The wonderful thing about oddballs is that even though I have a decent number of them listed in the searchlist there’s no way I can know about all of them.

NFL Baseball Players

A short list of two-sport players who went into the NFL and never got MLB cards. I try and get football cards of these guys that mention baseball on the back.

Non-baseball

Not a want list just a list of other people who are in the album or whose cards are sitting in a COMC pile. Am not looking to be conclusive with these it’s just nice to have one or two cards to provide some variety.
