1990 Beckett #60

If you looked at my Yount Collection page you'll see 99% of the list is baseball cards.  But I do have a small collection of Magazines that Robin has graced the cover on and it's an area I really want to expand.   Robin has been featured on the front of Beckett two times, although it might be more it's just two times I know of.   The second time was in 1992 on issue #90.

I ended up picking this up for a whole 50 cents plus shipping, off of eBay.  It's wasn't advertised as mint and the seller sure didn't package it to keep it pristine, but it's a very clean, attractive and readable copy.

I love all the old advertisements from the 90's and all the business card ads for all the different card shops back then.  I even found a few for Anchorage that are long gone.  And look at this price guide.  The print is so big.  As a matter of fact  the price guide section only takes up about 35 pages of the magazine.

Let's see what Robin's rookie card was going for back in 1990.

The Robin Yount Magazine and other periodical Checklist

While most of my Robin Yount collection is his baseball cards I decided long ago that I wouldn't limit myself to just those.  In my collection I have baseball cards, drinkware, bobbleheads, coins, and of course magazines.  As long as it features Robin I'll add it to my collection.

So this post is all about the magazines he's been featured on over the years.  This is really a reference for me.  I by no means have all of these, but I thought I'd put to together a checklist and gallery of periodicals that Robin has graced the cover on, at least in part.  This includes, magazine, books, newspapers, media guides, programs, whatever. I realize this is not complete so feel free to chime in if you know of something I've missed and I'll add it to the checklist.

I'll start adding some images when I have time.
