Mr. Budweiser

 First time I've seen this type of card and the back has one of the greatest cartoons ever.

Here's the front, 1996 St. Louis Browns Historical Society

Joe is nicknamed Mr. Budweiser, he can outdrink any teammate.  He also played

for the Toledo Mud Hens, my home team.

The Rifleman

More Oddballs.  Cincinnati Team card, 1983, position - infielder

Another Reds team card

Another McDonald's card for my collection

The Night Owl posted a card of Bob Cluck from this set.

Samari Cecil

A couple of TCMA's

A Wheaties BB card, cut from a box

COMC order arrived

 My COMC order also arrived yesterday.  I have waited for over a year to ship hoping for some special

deal with shipping, but no luck.  With almost 100 cards, it will be good for a couple of posts.  We'll

start with mostly bubbles.   Over 20 new bubble cards, but here were the highlights.

Combining Bubbles and MEM, works for me

Hockey is the only sport that still has newer Bubble cards other than baseball

One of the hardest to find Bubble cards are numbered

A bubble card from the Venezuelan league, timely

I also collect cards of players that are local.  This card is the oldest player from

the Toledo area to have a card.  There is also a Historical Roadside sign a few 

miles from my house that shows where Comstock grew up, one of the first

settlers in the Sylvania suburb.  It does not say he played baseball.  I found 

out that fact searching local sports figures and he started as a Tiger.

Is Roy Kent based on Roy Keane

 According to the articles I've been reading Roy Kent, Ted Lasso, was based on Roy Keane.  Also have 

been trading for a few Relics of down the road maybes for HOF.  Lots of cards from trades this week.

Good chance for this year

3 Cy Youngs should do the trick

Un Licensed cards from the 80's and 90's are making a comeback

Saw Bull Durham over the holidays

A Parallel

Cards from Local Card Shop

 My weekly trip to my LCS, Bob's Bullpen, netted some interesting new cards.  He always seems to

bring new cards I haven't seen before.  I also have made a couple of interesting trades on TCDB.

'52 Wheaties

Altogether I got 9 different stickers from '63 Topps

And this '69 sticker of Tiant

Can always use '70 Hostess

Fuji asked, 3 days in a row

 A week ago, I went to a card show about a 1/2 hour away.   Best local show I've been to in a while.

70 tables with only 4 or 5 Pokemon.  Amazingly there were 5 tables with Dime boxes.  After finding a

few cards at the 2nd table I came across this card in the dime boxes.

At first glance it looked like any other '87 Hygrades.   But it just looked different.

When I got home sure enough there are no signatures on these cards.

After studying other Ernie autos, it sure looks like it's real.  

Some other interesting dime box finds.  Super WWII spy, Moe Berg.

His biography is very interesting.

Might make my list of favorite Oddballs.

2nd Post in Two days, new record

 I give all the credit to my fellow bloggers who post multiple days in one week.  Got lucky today.

Went to my local card shop and he gave me a box of cards to look through he had gotten earlier this 

morning.   Lots of interesting cards, but here were the ones I bought.  Special Christmas discount

helped.

Think it's a give a way card from the 2014 NCCC convention

custom Clemente Beer game card

Clemente numbered cards

First time I've seen this Factory stamp on the back

Art Card

A couple of Relic cards.  Does it count if it's a bench he might have sat on?
