Welcome

This blog is about sports cards. I tend to only purchase cheap items so don't come hear expecting to see big money cards. My teams collections are Chicago White Sox and Michigan Wolverines. I also have a bunch of player collections.

New Additions - Vintage Collection, 1982 & 1984

*For those new to the blog, all purchases were made on Ebay (unless otherwise noted) and all were under $.50/shipped.

I'm listing Ebay stuff but also I got an awesome package from Dennis over at "Too Many Verlanders" and my favorite "Too Many Manninghams", although you'll see a lot of that great stuff on the TMM blog whenever I get that post together. I also received 2 huge packages of mainly White Sox cards from Jeff over at "2 x 3 Heroes" as well and both guys also sent a bunch of vintage. I'm also randomizing the posts so let's see what's next.




1 more John Mayberry from Dennis. I appreciate Baseball Reference's mistake, it was my gain for the Vintage Collection















8 1982's (love those Topps) and 4 1984's from Jeff on this post. If you can't tell by now, he sent quite a bit for the vintage collection.




I also added a couple 1982's on the cheap from Ebay.

I only have 2 more posts and they are the best of the player collections (my favorite player) and the best of the vintage collection.

In case you're interested, the reason I pretty much always post pics of single cards is because of these 2 blogs that I use to store my cards. My Personal Collections and My Baseball Card Obsession.

Random Vintage

I’ve randomed all my cards in my vintage collection by decade.  Here’s what popped up.
For a description of what my Vintage collection is, click here for the post.
1950’s
vintage01
Bennie Daniels – 1959 Topps
This card actually came up with the 1960’s on the last post before I realized it was from 1959. The card says rookie stars of 1959 which usually means it was printed the next year. I figured it out before I posted it though.
1960’s
vintage02
Dave Stenhouse – 1965 Topps
I always liked the 1965’s, I think I like the flag. I tend to like all the sets that they used those. I also like having a card of a team that is no longer in existence. I know they moved, but they are no longer the Washington Senators.
1970’s
vintage03
Joe Torre – 1976 Topps
This card is a little (just a tad) miscut so eventually I will replace it. I’m not a huge fan of this set, if they would have stuck with the team colors at the bottom instead of random, I think it would have been a lot better.
1980’s
vintage04
Bob Brenly, Chili Davis, Bob Tufts – 1982 Topps
This card brings back memories. I remember when it was one of the cards you wanted because it was a Chili Davis rookie card. Back in the day, I probably had 8 or 9 of those.
