At the Wall

 Got some cards at Costco today.  Topps 2025 Flagship and 2025 Topps Archives.  They're in a package 

together with packs of Topps Series 2.   These 3 cards reminded me of Nick's mini collection of 

At The Wall.   Can you tell if they were staged or actual game photos?




Dirty uniform, probably during a game



Last card to finish this set.


Max is wearing my Hometown Toledo Mud Hens hat.



A few more potential HOF'ers



One of my more interesting 1/1's

Visit to LCS

Had a chance to visit my LCS before the OSU and Michigan game.  Found some interesting cards.

I hope this first one is authentic and not a "fake". 



Yogi looks pretty thin, 1952 Berk Ross


How's this for a "Bob" card


Another Bob, 1963


Very cool card with holes that make the image



Griffey is scorching hot lately


Dover reprint from 1978



And finally a National Sports Card Convention card from 1995

All the above cards cost me .50 each, Thanksgiving Bargain

Down to 3

 I'm down to needed 3 more Relic cards to complete my HOF'er and future(possible) HOF'er.  183 so far.

The three I need are Koufax, Clemente and the hardest one to find Joe Gordon.  Joe Gordon finished his 

career in 1949 and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2009.  While there are Autos of Joe,  I have not

seen any relic cards.

Relic card update

 Just started using a new computer to make this blog, still working out the kinks.  Thanks for understanding.  Hope I get the hang of it soon.










Some of the lesser known HOF'ers are the hardest to find these Relic cards
















Most of these players are in the Maybe category and some have a long way to go.

More Bubbles and Relics and Magnum

 Seems like fewer Bubble cards lately.  However the parallels are ridiculous.  New Topps have

over 20 to chase.  I will continue to acquire older parallels.






Eugenio still blows the biggest bubbles

The old English "D"




Still getting a couple of relics weekly
