More Big Deal cards.

These non Braves cards came from those boxes I got a month ago. They somehow got put under the stack of Braves. But oh well, here they are.

Almost missed these originally. I remember sending at least one of these to TJ in the past, maybe both.  Either way I have them again if someone needs them.

More minis.  I still have all of those minis available for trade that I started the BIG DEAL posts with.

Keeping the Lynch for one of my mini collections (Names).

Silly Saturday

A little overcast (been raining off and on) today, so let's put some happy cards in play.

That's a happy face.

Thriller video immediately comes to mind.

A not so happy face, more like agony.

Howdy pardner.  Maybe John Wayne or Matt Dillon (the character not the actor).

A sad face with a high kick.

Franken Friday Jersey Number 14

For those who aren't familiar with my Franken-Sets (I have several) this one is a run of Jersey Numbers. I try to to get as many of the lesser known players mixed with a few of the stars. I also try to to not duplicate a team or card set on one page, although from time time to time the second page isn't possible. Well, the first two pages I did for each number had some "fails" in that area. I have since added a couple more pages for each number and has room to modify the pages to accommodate the more current players.

A couple of other things I tried to do (but again sometimes fail) is to keep the cards vertical and to have a visible jersey number whereas that number may only show up on the pants.

Have a great weekend.

Trade Post

A couple weeks ago Bo from Baseball Cards Come to Life ( Bo's Blog ) and I swapped some cards. Bo hit me up with some set build needs. Bo hit up a lot of different sets. The bulk came from the following.

2001 Topps.

2007 Upper Deck.

2008 Upper Deck.

2009 Upper Deck.


Bo also sent quite a bit of 2002 Fleer as well but I already boxed them up.

Wacky Wednesday ANS style

In 2004 Topps dabbled their way back into the Wacky Packages. It was their first attempt since 1991. The sticker set has 55 titles with the backs showing a puzzle piece, checklist , or wacky coupon. The coupons themselves are like a double dip for the collector, so I will be showing them as well. Topps also added 9 "clings", 10 tattoos, 3 promo stickers, and 2 bonus stickers.  There are 3 different puzzles in SERIES 1 each with a different color border. I have all 9 clings, 2 Tattoos, all 3 Promos. I do NOT have an unopened pack or wrapper, nor do I have either Bonus sticker, and need 8 of the Tattoos.

These are the 9 Clings. I have a few doubles.

These are the 3 Promos. I have 1 double.

These are 2 of the Tats.

The 3 clings and promo above are extras and available for trade. I'd trade all 4 for 1 unopened pack.


I will be breaking this SERIES 1 into 2 posts.

This will be the break point for SERIES 1, will wrap up next week with stickers 37-55 plus the coupons and puzzle cards.
