Weekend Catch-Up

I'm back from camping, got back today with a mailbox full of envelopes. So let's get to it.

I picked up this White Sox Collection card for a whopping $.01/shipped. You read that right, a penny. I didn't have it so I put my usual $.50 bid on it hoping that it didn't come to that because I didn't really want to pay that much so I elated to get it at a penny. It is my 10th card of Hillegas.

This is my 10th of Frazier, 9 of them are a part of the White Sox collection. This came to me for $.35/shipped.

I probably already have this but I didn't have it logged on TCDB so I bought it anyways. I still have a few boxes of cards that I have to log in but I'm still trying to get caught up on the ones I've blogged about. I picked up this card of Fox for $.36/shipped. It is my 8th card of Nellie.

I picked up these 2 auto's from the same seller. I thought I already have the Meaux (I have a bunch of his auto's) but this was numbered to /93 so I didn't. I got the Meaux for $1.99/shipped, it is my 5th auto out of 14 cards. That doesn't include the dupe autos that I have. This is only my 2nd Russell and it came to me for $1.49/shipped. This card is a 2008 and the other Russell card is from 2004 which doesn't bode well considering it's over 10 years later and I wasn't sure I had heard of him before.

This is my 98th different card of Zimmy so I'm closing in on the century mark. I picked up this relic for $2.55/shipped. It is also my 8th relic of Ryan Zimmerman

We got back from camping this afternoon so this was a quick post to get the incoming cards caught up that came in over the weekend. Hopefully I'll have the cards Dennis sent me all ready to go by the time I get a day that I get no envelopes in the mail.

Mostly Sox Sunday

It's been almost a week. It's not that I haven't received cards, it's been that I've been lazy. Sorry. So this is a catch up post. All but one of the cards go to the White Sox Collection.

I picked up all these from a seller that had a bunch of 1990 Score. I, of course, bid on the White Sox cards that I didn't have and this is what I came up with. I only paid $.05/shipped for all but the Thigpen ($.20/shipped) and the Guillen ($.25/shipped.)

I picked up these 2 in a lot of 2. I paid $.26/shipped for the lot so only $.13 for each card. I thought I had some other Update from 2017 but apparently not as these were the first 2.

I also picked up this card of Barry Larkin, it's from 1997 Pinnacle Mint. I'm not positive on why there is a hole in it. I would guess they have cards with coins and some without. I don't know, just an uneducated guess. This is the 146th card for that collection.

More great cards from Jimmy to go with what he sent yesterday.

One more White Sox auto to go with the other 2 from yesterday. I paid a little more than normal but I didn't have a Karkovice auto yet so I went for it anyways.

1990 Bowman

I didn't actually order this but it was in my box, and I needed it so there you go.

1978 Topps ($.50)

1979 Topps ($.50)

I also managed to grab these for my late 70's White Sox team sets.

Even though it's the last day of the month and I have 2 more posts left for Feburary, I haven't scanned March's cards yet so I'll do that this weekend and finish off my posts before then, hopefully.

New Additions - White Sox Collection

*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 a package from Bru over at Remember the Astrodome so you'll see assorted stuff from him as well. He was originally going to hook me up with some 1984 Topps (which he did) but he ended up sending a bunch more vintage as well as some White Sox needs. I'll be randomizing the posts like I did the last bunch.

As you can see, Bru sent me a good stack of White Sox cards. All of those 1990 Upper Deck up there completed that team set. Plus he sent me a bunch of others that he wanted to get rid of. Thanks for all the cards Bru, they were greatly appreciated.

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 (now with over 2300 cards) and My Baseball Card Obsession (now with over 2500 cards and almost 900 different card labels).
