Lottsa Cards

I have lots of cards to show and I'm sleepy so let's get to it.

1987 Donruss from my LCS found sorting for him.

1987 Fleer from my LCS found sorting cards.

More 1987 fleer, these are from Kevin while sorting his cards.

1986 Fleer from my LCS.

1983 Topps from my son, the only card I needed out of the repack he bought me.

1983 Fleer from my LCS.

1982 Topps from my LCS.

1982 Topps from Kevin.

1982 Fleer from my LCS.

1982 Donruss from Kevin.

1981 Donruss from Kevin.

1980 Topps from my LCS.

This is the first card on this post that I paid for. This 1972 Topps was in the half off box that Kevin bought from Hollister so I only paid $2.

A 1985 Topps from my LCS,

Last but not least, this 1964 that also came from my LCS.

Lots of vintage up there, very cheap in total for all of it. Cards as old as 50 plus years. If you add up everything, I paid less than $5 for all of it. The majority of it free as payment for sorting cards for Kevin and the LCS.

1. Dennis at "Too Many Verlanders" and "Too Many Manninghams"
2. Sluggo (my cousin)

I've randomed and todays selections are going to the Vintage Collection

1978 Topps

1979 Topps

That is an awesome array of players to be included to the vintage collection. I realize they are not high dollar cards but look at some of those names.

1977 Topps ($.54)

1977 Topps ($.50)

1978 Topps ($.40)

1978 Topps ($.52)

1978 Topps ($.25)

The above cards put the 1977 Topps set at 63 cards (9.55%), the 1978 Topps set at 92 cards (12.67%) and the 1979 Topps set at 67 cards (9.23%). A long way to go in all 3 sets but it's not like I expected to finish this in the next 10 years or so. That was part of the reason I started this collection, along with I love the cards, it's something I can work on the rest of my life.
