Contest win & trade with GCRL

I won a contest, I know, I couldn’t believe it either.  I was randomed off in Jim’s contest for commenting on his bog “Garvey Cey Russell Lopes” and plugging his new blog “Timeless Teams”.  My prize was this auto from that set.

Steve Yeager autograph from the 2004 Upper Deck Legends Timeless Teams set.  It is available for trade, if nobody claims it, it’ll go to the next Dodger collector I trade with, except Jim, being as he gave it away, I’m going to assume he doesn’t need it.   But Jim didn’t stop there, apparently he wanted to trade as well as he sent me a huge stack of White Sox cards as well.

These are just a few of the cards he sent.  Really like the Sports Illustrated card.  I like that set earlier when I collected but I don’t remember seeing that card.  The Konerko Fleer Genuine goes to my Konerko collection because I didn’t have it either.

I will definitely send a return package your way Jim but it’ll take me a little time because all you Dodger traders keep me depleted of other Dodger cards. I have a Steve Yeager auto from 2004 UD Legends Timeless Teams if you’d like.  Jusy saying.  Be sure to check out “Garvey Cey Russell Lopes” and “Timeless Teams”

Trade post with GCRL

I have 3 trades that I need to get posted, I’ll try 1 a day this weekend.

Received some cards from Jim over at “Garvey Cey Russell Lopes” earlier this week. He swapped some cards with me and I was pleased with the Sox he sent me. This is just a sampling of them.

Some newer cards and semi-new cards.

Some late 80’s, early 90’s. I used to have a crap load of the 1988 Donruss, loved seeing them again. I think I stopped collecting not long after those 1995 Topps came out. And I always did like the 1994 Upper Deck. Also remember the Score Frank Thomas with the huge bat.

And some vintage 80’s and 70’s. I think the 1981 Topps is when I originally started collecting. I had a crap load of those too. I loved seeing the 1982 and 1983 Topps as well. I remember those sets as well. I have to start getting more vintage cards, so many memories of my youth.

Thanks Jim for the great trade. Everyone check out his blog “Garvey Cey Russell Lopes” especially if you’re a Dodger fan.
