A finished set and addition to Oddballs

 I recently finished a set that I started about 30 years ago.  It all started with this card.


This card started my "Bubble" collection (obsession) and is still my favorite card.
It is the only card I know of that has two bubbles on one card.
I also half heartingly have been pursuing the "Brinkley set" and finally finished the set
with this card.


After reading my last blog about Oddballs, Jeff from Wax Pack Wonders
sent me this "flip" card, which is along side all of my "Ozzie" somersault cards.
I hope to repay the favor some day.


Finally, my Relic card quest continues.  Here are some recent cards.





This card is a Mini.



This is a "Jackie" relic.

    That Jackie Robinson bat card with Larry Doby is awesome! Just looked it up on eBay... but it's a little outside of my cardboard budget.
