This will be an abbreviated issue because my parents were in town and my daughter was in her final middle school musical, so there was much family time to be had and not as much newsletter time.
In this issue you'll find:
Auction highlights
News in the hobby
Ozzie Newsomer’s rookie card and player profile

Let’s get into it.

News Briefs
Vintage HOF Rookie Card: Ozzie Newsome
I’ll admit, when I think back to my childhood, both Kellen Winslow and Todd Christensen stick out more than Ozzie Newsome when it comes to tight ends. That said, it was Newsome who had the most receptions for that position in the 1980s with 546.
Ozzie Newsome - TE
HOF Induction in 1999
5-time All-Pro, including four as second-team All-Pro
3-time Pro Bowl selection
Eclipsed 1,000 yards receiving twice
6,370 receiving yards in the 1980s (per StatMuse - second among tight ends)
Career AV (Approximate Value) - 75

1975 Topps #308
