This listing is for the
card set only. There are no game components included with this set. You
need to already own the game to use these. If
you don't already have a copy of the game just click HERE
to see a list of complete games that I have available for purchase.
|
The card set is overall in
NEAR MINT condition. These are all original, Cadaco-produced discs, not
photocopies or home-made discs. Click
HERE
for a complete list
of the players included with this set.
|
The set is still sealed in
it's original packaging. The card and pack show minimal handling wear.
I would grade them 9 on a
10
scale (see condition guide below).

Did you ever notice that on
that big auction site there seem to be a huge number of 1968 CADACO ALL
STAR BASEBALL GAMES? Well one problem that novice sellers / collector's
often run into is that the copyright date on the box and game parts
remained the same for many years in a row, but every year CADACO put
out a brand new set of player discs for ALL STAR BASEBALL. So you
cannot determine the age of the game simply by looking at the copyright
date. You need to know which players came with which edition.
Another thing you need to
be aware of is that many players had more than one disc created for
them. The discs were changed depending on the performance of a player
during the previous year. So even if you do know the player names for a
set you still need to be sure they are the correct discs for that
particular set.

CONDITION GUIDE:
MINT
(10): I
will only
give this grade
to brand new, unused items. NEAR MINT (9):
Shows virtually no use. Seldom if ever played.
Cards
will have at worst some dented corners from shuffling around in the
box. Perhaps some very light handling creases to the
instructions
or other minor flaws with the game parts. Boxes will have
only
the slightest hint of shelf wear. EXCELLENT (7-8):
The game has seen some use but it was obviously taken care of
well. Cards may have denting to the corners, perhaps
a few
may have
light stains or other very light handling wear, but the vast
majority will be close to flawless. Game parts
might have
some light handling creases or other signs of
careful use. Board might have just a hint of color loss or
dented
corners. Boxes will have light rubbing to the artwork or
perhaps
some minor dishing or a very light stain. VERY GOOD (5-6):
The game was not especially well cared for, but it still has
fared pretty well. Cards will have dented corners and
perhaps
some may have rubber band wear to the edges. A few cards
(less
than 10%) may have handling creases, yellowing to the
edges
(a few may be yellowed on the faces), or light stains.
Perhaps a
couple may have writing or some dried rubber band residue (this will be
noted). All card results will be fully readable.
Other game
parts will show obvious use but nothing will be torn, badly
stained or have any serious damage. Box may have
some
rubbing, light staining, dishing, 1 or 2 neatly split corners,
minor writing and/or a few pieces of tape. No major
structural
damage and artwork will still be generally attractive. GOOD (3-4):
Obviously no care was taken with the game but it is still perfectly
playable. Cards will show moderate to heavy use and many will be
yellowed, stained, creased, written on or have rubber band
residue. A couple may be torn and taped back together.
All
card results will be fully readable. Other game parts show
considerable use but the game is complete with all parts in
usable
condition. Box may have staining, writing, split
corners,
dishing and/or other structural damage but it will be intact and still
usable. POOR
(1-2):
Only suitable to fill a space in your collection.
Cards are
heavily worn and some are badly damaged. Game will be missing
parts (these will be noted). Box will have serious damage and
may
be missing aprons or badly torn.
