In the middle of my daily ritual, looking at my favorite blogs, I was inspired by Bo at Baseball Cards Come to Life to post a blog about my Pepsi and Coca Cola cards. I love to collect at least one oddball card of each set. I really don't try to collect a whole set of each oddball. If you have any singles of any food, retailer, minor league card or other misc. logo on a card, please let me know and I'll be happy to trade. Let's start with the Coke cards.
I love minor league cards, especially the older ones.
1982 plus local Boston retailer.
Last World Series title for the Tigers. Mr. Tiger we will miss you.
1992
1994 Collect a Card
Ok now the Pepsi
1984 Marysville
2000 Upper Deck 1 of 15
1991 Reds
I finish with a 2003 Fleer mini.
Those are all so cool. I especially like the 1981 Topps offer card.
ReplyDeleteSchmidt is always a good get, but it's the same photo as his regular Topps card.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the early '80s Coke sets, so much so that I will gladly take any from any team.
ReplyDeleteThe later years stuff I can take or leave. I like the oddballs but as the '80s went on they seemed cheaper than the '70s/early '80s oddballs for whatever reason.
I love food/drink issued oddballs -- didn't know a Hardee's set existed though!
ReplyDeleteI've always been a Coke guy... and I do like the early 80's Coke cards. But when it comes to soda cards... it's gonna be hard to top the 1977 MSA Pepsi discs.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. Some day I should pick up a card from the '63 Pepsi Houston Colt .45s set, those are really nice looking cards, especially when they are completely intact (unperforated).
