The Quest

The Baltimore Orioles have been in town since '54 and have had over 900 men don their uniform. My goal is to obtain a signed card of each player. If you have something I need, or see something you want, don't be shy, we can make a deal.

Total Players 877/977 = 89.25%
1991 Orioles Crown Set
Total Players 309/465 = 66.45%
Alive Players 274/369 = 74.25

Index Card Quiz

Just made a trade for a bunch of tougher autographs I needed and had to settle for a few on index cards. Figured a cool way to go about it is to leave them nameless and see how easy or hard they are to guess. I will give the years they played professionally and see how people do. *Note* Every player has spent time on the Orioles roster.

Starting Off Easy:
#1) 1970-1977


#2) 1974-1990


A Little Tougher:
#3) 1987-1990


#4) 1975-1984


Toughie:
#5) 1971-1979


Good Thing The Name Was on the Back:
#6) 1992-1993

  3. Oh yeah, number 5 is Anderson. The sigs of Adamson and Anderson look pretty similar. I should have checked the playing years. I think I got 6 right though.

  4. Guys, very close, just transposed the last two. #5 is indeed Mike Anderson and #6 is in fact Tommy Shields.

    Thanks to you both for having a look-see.
