Wacky Wednesday

 For starters....Good morning!

I didn't mess with my baseball cards again yesterday or today. Instead I worked on my grandson's Pokemon cards. I had apx. 10K of them needing sorted and input. I've made it to 2/3 of them, and I still need to pull out the binders and put them in them. That is the ones that are listed in TCDB (they haven't gotten a bunch of sets listed even going back to 2023, so they just sit on my work table. Hopefully, I will get something done tonight (braves binders) and certainly finish them up by tomorrow. That way I can get back on the PC update with the M's. I've sorted them by player already so as the next phase is to sort the player by year and brand. I do that one player at a time basically then check my excel sheets to see if I need them, and then input into TCDB and put into their binder. Then do the next player. 

More card backs. Next weeks' UD are the fronts.

Wrapping up the magazine card theme tomorrow (other than the giveaway). Probably do that on Monday.

I didn't play with my baseball cards yesterday

 I didn't mess with my baseball cards yesterday because I had to pick my grandson up from first thing in the morning. His belly was messed up, so I took care of him yesterday until his mom got off work. Rather then scatter bb cards all around and risk any sorting getting messed up and potentially having to re-do it I decided to mess with Pokemon cards. NO problems whatsoever, and my grandson wasn't even distracted by him. He just spent the day playing with his toys (mostly dinosaurs) and some cars. But it was all good. 

The 66' repli-cards certainly have some awesome photos used. Good thing the next scan and the last scan of the magazine cards has plenty more of them. I should be posting the last ones up on Thursday night. That way I have the weekend to scan up the cards for the giveaway!

Getting closer

 We are getting closer to then of the magazine cards. Some of you maybe looking forward to that and then there are some that will miss them. This week should wrap up everything except for the giveaway which will be majority of mag cards and baseball at that, but not 100%. You see there might even be a few HOF vintage cards thrown into the mix. HUH???????????? You'll just have to wait until we get there.

House cleaning first: Silly name for something completely unrelated but here goes.

1) I drove down to Tampa Saturday for a show.

2) I completed updating my Ls and almost ready to start the M's, but I have to scan some stuff before I begin.

3) For months now I couldn't find my two Ohtani on card certified pack pulled (by me) rookie autos. I found them! Oh man, wait until I get to that story.

Now for the magazine cards.

OOOH, I see some butt cheeks. Okay just one cheek.

Good place to stop for the night. Should be just two of these "regular" posts left before the giveaway. 

Saturday Shadow Shots

 Some of you enjoyed the World Series game 1 last night, and I'm sure there are those who did not. Either way, you get to peer into the shadows and see if you see what I see.

BTW, before I get the shadows, I need to RANT. The checklist for Topps Holiday is out and although it looks like the set may look even better than last year they went and did it again with MORE and I mean MORE parallels. They added chrome plus 10 chrome parallels to the other additions totaling........ DRUM ROLL.......27 parallel to the base. I remember when this set started just a few short years ago, there was one just one parallel.  They also have added a parallel to the variations. UGH!

I see a one legged ghoul (Halloween is just around the corner).

I really can't come up with anything here, but it is definitely aweird shadow and no idea how it is what it is either.

I see a ping pong player getting ready to slam one over the net. Enjoy the weekend all!

Is it over yet?

 Nope, nah, uh uh, not a chance. Still a few more of these magazine card posts to go. BTW, Margie's Boys and The Gang (our trivia team) won last night. The youngin's didn't add too much to the play last night (a little yes), but man o man was my brother on fire. 

See you Monday for Magazine cards, but a little different variety to say the least.

 Hump day once again which is a good thing.

Card backs could be very interesting in the early 90's. Full crew for tonight's trivia.

See ya!

Right where we left off

 Picking up right where we left off yesterday. 1969 repli-cards.

There were certainly a lot of the 69' series.

A couple of those guys worked out, lol. I believe we have 4 more of these posts before the BIG giveaway. Stay tuned.

More magazine cards

 Slowly but surely we are getting through these. There were so many which is why I chose only to highlight the magazine cards from the 3 boxes I bought on that Saturday at my LCS. Besides the fact that I love odd balls.

Just a reminder that once I finish with these scans I will be hosting another giveaway of these magazine cards (predominantly baseball though).

Many of the cards I have shown (especially tonight) are PC guys and although I do have plenty I will not be trying to complete the sets of these.

Catch on the backside!

Saturday Shadow Shots

Let's see what is in the shadows today.

The front of a baby elephant.

A vulture sitting on top of a dead animal it is about to commence eating.

 I see a soccer goalie diving after the ball.

Enjoy the weekend.

Next up!

 Jeremy came over today, and we went over to my LCS: Grand Slam collectibles. Nope, not showing that stuff today, in fact it might not hit this blog until November, but still it was a good day. I'm sure he'll post up his goodies soon. 

Nah, I'm still working on the cards (magazine cards) from Saturday before last. 

Here we GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Stopping point here and a heads up just 6 more of these posts to go. Hopefully, those who were getting some cards have gotten them by now. You folks enjoy tomorrow and I'll see you here Saturday.....in the Shadows.

 Hump day once again!

Let's do this thang!

Have a great night everyone!

In the swing of things

 Getting back to the swing of things is not as always as it could be. Take for instance, getting back to the PC update. Oh man.....I spent 2 days just doing one of the 20 players I collect in the "L's". Several of those players are not going into binders, they will be boxed because they probably won't make the HOF ever. Still, yet it takes a lot of time to get my PC guys ready for a binder which is simply the easiest part. I do believe I am actually getting back into the swing of things in that respect. 

Now then let's get to some more odd ball cards, predominantly baseball of course.

Okay so these were all baseball (that is a good thing). Also a great spot to stop for tonight.

Happy Charlie Kirk Day!

Have a great night folks!
