Wacky Wednesday

 It is HUMP day once again. I hope that everyone is having a decent week. If not, I wish it better, be positive and let it improve. :)

Now to look at some interesting cards.

May there be a card above that puts a smile on your face.

Now, for next Wednesday I will be skipping the normal Wacky post as it is my birthday and I will post a birthday related theme.

Let's learn some stuff shall we?

 Another round of 2023 Historic autograph company cards.

There you go. There is still enough for two more weeks and then they are done.

Later!

Just Another Maddux Monday.

 Last week's winner from the 5 commenter's was Fuji. Congrats. By now I am thinking the blogger comment thing has resolved itself as things are starting to improve from what I can tell over the weekend across the blogosphere. 

Here are this week's freebies.

In case you are new to this blog:

To be eligible for these 9 free Greg Maddux cards, be a follower, comment on this post before Friday midnight, and have a U.S. address that I can mail to. I randomize the entrants 3x and that's it.

I hope your week is a grand one!

More from Apopka

 Round two from the Apopka card show last month. This time are the fifteen cent PC guys. (Pulled out of quarter boxes).

Definitely had some color to them.

I plan on hitting up the last card show of the year in The Villages tomorrow....wish me luck! I will have 2 more posts from the Apopka show with cards that were in a TWO dollar box which I paid a buck a piece for. Some were good deals, some were bad deals, and most were even steven.

Apopka card show: Part 1

 New to me Braves. I have broken the cards from the Apopka card show last month into several groups. First up were cards from quarter boxes that in the end paid fifteen cents a piece for.

Some of the new to me Braves actually went to that player's PC or to the actual set build rather than to the Braves team sets. The first 2 scans were for set builds.

Next are for the Braves binders.

I did already have that Ritchie, but because TCDB doesn't list it as a Brave I originally put the one I already owned into my "PINK" collection.

Here you can see the Smoltz cards that went to his PC.

The last scan (below) were various priced new to me Braves cards.

The blue turkey Red Albies is numbered to /50.  I picked up the complete Star set with Justice and Maas. I had already owned and the Justice (I still dislike him very much), but the Justice cards were in the Braves team cards and these will go into his PC.

See ya tomorrow with another round of cards from Apopka.

Wacky Wednesday

 Hump Day! Picking up right where we left off with some great shots of the Mick!

Later!

Class time: History lessons

 Let's do a few more of these.

Hmm, Is Topps/Fanatics in violation?

That is this week's Historical information.

Just another Maddux Monday

 First I need to announce the last Wacky Packages winner: RJ.

Now for last week's Maddux winner (only 3 people commented): Also RJ. The Wacky's were already mailed, I'll get the Maddux out this week.

Now for this week's freebies.

Hope your week is awesome!

Another Ebay win. 2023 Topps Finest Star Wars

 Got this complete set delivered for under $24.00. I made an offer on this complete set as I previously only had 3 cards from the set. The seller countered and I accepted.

As simple as it seems, I don't think that I will ever get 100% of the Star Wars sets out there completed.

Have a great weekend. I hope to knock out 6-7 things off of my to-do list.

INCOMING: Night Owls drops one on me.

 A couple of weeks ago I got a package from Greg.

Greg helped out with some Braves needs or at least I believe so. There was another one that I did already have too. Those Topps sandglitter's, confetti's, and whatever else they're called drives me nuts figuring them out.

Greg also sent along these set build needs, that I had mentioned in his post on the set that I needed.

He wrapped the package up with these Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band cards. I remember going to the "picture show" (theatre/ movies) back as a kid to see the film. Friday night feature films cost a buck and half back then. Dang, the candy was expensive too and those super extra large sizes (double in size what they are today) was a whopping .50 same for the soda or popcorn. 

Thanks Greg!

Back to the ORIGINAL theme: Wacky Wednesday

 For those of you that maybe new here or those that may have a slightly decreasing memory this theme goes back more than a decade and it basically cards that I find INTERESTING for one reason or another. some might be wacky and others just great shots for a baseball card.

Starting it off with a great mix.

Let's get Educational......Educational......

 Physically speaking let's look at some Historical information cards. Yeah, hoping that I stuck the ONJ song in your head too. hehehe.

There were a lot of recognizable names in this batch. 

Later tomaters.
