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.

Random Cards #74

I'm back. The surgery went well, I have no pain and haven't touched my pain meds. I do get constant bloody noses every time I stand up and it runs some when I have my head down as well so it makes it difficult to sit at my desk. Not to mention that my son uses my card room during the day (I'm usually at work) to do his online schooling. So today you get a post that I don't have to leave the recliner for.

Lots of stuff posted that I had no info on, only 3 Sox cards and a bonus autograph. Ended up with some pretty good cards up there I think. As you can see, I got rid of the baseball collection and added the new team card collections section to go with the new collection. I also added how many cards were in each collection under the titles, that was easier info to come up with since I changed my Google sheet over and have each collection in it's own tab.

I got a Sportlots package in yesterday but I haven't opened it yet. I'll probably do that today as I can do that from my recliner but I won't be able to scan or log them until I can put my head down a little and sit at my desk and scanner.

Vintage with more vintage to follow

My first post of August only took 5 days. I hadn't actually got my stuff together until yesterday. I finally finished scanning yesterday and cropping today so I'm finally ready.

You'll notice an absence of player collections this month. Apparently I went on a vintage kick plus I started a new collection and I bought a bunch of cards for that, but those are vintage as well so it's pretty much a vintage collection post. I do have one White Sox team post, but those are vintage too so as I said, the whole month will be vintage.

After randomning, today's post is the oldest of the Vintage posts.


I picked up a couple of '72's. Both for a quarter each. These 2 give me 67 for the set. This set has always seemed very hippy to me.


I picked up one black bordered '71 also for a quarter. It gives me 108 cards for that set.


Before the black set, came the grey one. I grabbed 3 cards to give me 68. I picked up the Humphreys for $.18, the Maxvill for $.30 and the Otis for a quarter. I do like picking up Washington Senators cards just for the nostalgic reasons. The Otis card I wasn't sure what was going on under his ear, I thought it was some kind of growth at first glance.


These 3 cards give me 51 for the '69 set. While I recognize all the names here, I really recognize the Rick Monday so I thought that was a cool card to get on the cheap. It is weird seeing him in an A's jersey though. I paid a quarter for each of these as well.

In case you hadn't noticed, all these came from Sportlots. I think they all came from one seller. I picked up a card I wanted and then just started with the oldest cards he had and just started adding anything to my cart that I didn't have that was relatively cheap.

Newest Additions - Vintage collection (1969)

I have randomed them and let's see what we got (unless you peeked at the title.) Sorry if a few are blurry, I didn't realize it when I edited them and I wasn't going to go back, find the cards and take new photos.

Vintage Collection (1969)
















I know if you've followed the card show posts during this round, you know I hit a bunch of dime boxes. Well, these are 1969 Topps, surely I didn't get them from a dime box. Wrong! I grabbed all these in dime boxes as well. I didn't have many from that set so I just grabbed them all without checking and ended up with no dupes.




Be sure to check out my other 2 card blogs as well.


Just like it says, photos of baseball cards. The "Blog" currently sits at over 4900 cards featured and I add more weekly.


This "Blog" has photos of the cards from my PC's. I have all the cards that were featured on this blog over here and will be working on adding all of my cards.




Everything from current to vintage sports pictures, baseball cards and more.
