SPECIAL FRIDAY NIGHT POST::::::: NUMBER 2,500! EXTRA GIVEAWAY ALSO READ TO FIND OUT FREE

 Tonight is this blogs 2,500th post. It has taken 9 years to get here. There will be an EXTRA giveaway to multiple people in addition to the normal "almost daily free baseball cards".  However, the extra special freebies will not be baseball cards and is limited just to followers with US addresses (sorry my Canadian friends). The "special" freebies will not be 1 PWE hence the US addy thing. Probably two PWE's. Really depends on how many "entrants" there are, might even be a bubble mailer. With that said the winner last night was: GTT


Now, for the special giveaway just type Wacky Packages in your comments. That's right giving some ORIGINAL Wacky Package's from series 3 through 12. VINTAGE baby!  I do also have one batch of the newer stuff series 8 if anyone wants it please say so in the comments.


The September Sportlots haul was large and will take a few posts.




Yes, that was a huge haul. I still need to finish updating my excel sheets, web pages, and ultimately TCDB with those. Then I can start working on the October card show, October ComC, and the October Sportlots haul. I will not go to the card show in November nor will I be shipping anything else from ComC and SL for at least a month (probably the rest of the year). That is not to say that I won't be shopping on Black Friday, I will be. Let us peruse the first batch of 4 posts.



A reminder for y'all thatthese were part of the ComC/SL slam dunking of the needed Braves. 























That was a lot of Braves. There are two more Braves posts and one with PC guys. I certainly put a dent in the excel sheets. Still need tens of thousands more, but hey that is the life of a team collector. Anything that wasn't at bottom prices are still needed, lol.

  2. I really like the 2011 Topps Pro Debut Andrelton Simmons - he looks like a player from the 1960s in that picture.

  6. Congrats on the anniversary, thanks for the entertaining posts and giveaways.

    The lighting on that Simmons card does make it look like a 60's photo.

    Never got into them funny stickers myself, though I had an empty album when I was a kid.

    That East vs. West set looks interesting. Score/Pinnacle put out some neat stuff toward the end of their line.

  7. Really like that Fulton County.
    I'm very on the Fence about collecting Freeman. He sort of fits the Canadian thing, as his parents are Canadian and played for Canada in WBC. But with the number of cards out I almost have to cherrypick.

  9. Woo, Wacky Packages! ... I don't know how you keep track of all that, trying to get a handle on a team collection is tough enough.

    1. I got them in the mail today. Thanks for including me. They are definitely funny. I remember some of the 1970's series from when I was in Elementary School.

  14. It's hard to send you Braves when you have them all! Congrats on 2500...I would also say you may have the blogger record for scans!

  15. Congratulations on the milestone, John. That is a lot of posts! Lot of scanning, too.

    I've got about a hundred cards sitting in a Sportlots box right now, and here I thought that that was a lot! As slow as I am with sorting, and posting, these days, it'd probably take me years to get to all of the stuff that you have in that one picture.
