"Rhubarb_Runner" sent me a bunch of cool Dodgers stuff, plus a few cards from my favorite non-Dodgers.
The big draw:
My first Kuo Game Used or Auto
Chad Billingsley 2006 Fleer Tradition Rookie Card
Clayton Kershaw 2008 Topps Updates and Highlights Rookie Card
A couple of nice Mike Piazza cards. The second one just makes me laugh.
Business in the front. Party in the back.
I don't know what this is. But I like it.
These are from 1993, produced by Upper Deck. I've never come across these
before, and was pleasantly surprised to find them in David's bubble mailer. I like
them a lot. The Brooklyn Dodgers photo of Carl Erskine and the old school photo
of Johnny Podres in the middle, the mini cards on the sides of the photos.
Very cool.
Very cool.
"Rhubarb_Runner" was also kind enough to include a couple of David Wright cards, a nice Cole Hamels card, a James Loney card, and a 1989 Topps Jesse Orosco card, which helps me in my attempt to put that set of my early, early, early youth together.
The Mauer Cabinet Card:
Thanks again "Rhubarb_Runner", hope you enjoy the cards that are on their way as I type. I look forward to many future trades.
Damn boy, you're on a trading frenzy. You got some nice stuff there.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's sort of addictive. And I have you to thank for posting a couple of your own trades and putting the idea in my head.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably time we worked out a trade. Only fitting, I suppose.
And David's care package was quite nice.
Nice pickups. Congrats on your first game-used card. I still have a ton of old Piazza cards... back when collecting was fun (the 90s). Inserts galore!
ReplyDeleteYou can never have enough Piazza cards.
ReplyDeleteThis is true. I probably have over 200. I tried to keep collecting after he was traded, but it just wasn't the same. I have a few of him in a Mets' uniform (even one in a Florida uniform).
ReplyDeleteThose were the days. I should dig up some of the cool ones and scan 'em.
Definitely scam them, I'd love to see them. I'm surprised he has a Marlins, considering he was there for like a week.
ReplyDeleteWho's this "David" you keep talking about?! ;)
ReplyDeleteMust be some mix-up. A typographical error of sorts. :P
ReplyDeleteHey Greg, I just started following since you commented on my post, Master of Your Domain. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks Play At The Plate!
