Thank you for the sensitive words, I greatly appreciate that. I think I was able to do all I could, it's just a tough one to deal with. Thank you again for your kindness! I will be sure to be back at it sometime eventually.
Just learned about a soon-to-be death in the family. I very well may disappear for a little bit, or I may attempt to keep some sense of normalcy. At the moment I am extremely dissociated, so I'm just going to carry on for now.
2006 Upper Deck Epic. Not too much here, although the base cards...
2006 Upper Deck. Wright has his own card, as well as a checklist card. The first card is from Series 1, and their set went; base, Gold /299, Silver Spectrum /25. I haven't found that last one yet. The checklist was from series 2, and that set went; base, Gold /299, Silver Spectrum /99 for...
I was also going to post these with the Turkey Reds above, but I was a bit confused about the year this set was released. Anyway, below was my original text about them.
2006 Topps Moments and Milestones. I'll start with the following disclaimer. I don't bother collecting these cards. Maybe...
2006 Topps Turkey Red. Have them all here. Base (grey), Red, White, Black, and Gold. Unlike 2005, the Gold this year was not serial numbered. I also have the Cabinet, which is just a jumbo version of the base card. I just didn't want to dig it out today.
Picked this fellow up a few days ago. I didn't have one of these, and a reasonable buy-it-now price popped up. I had passed on a few of these Cherry Wood 1/1's from Sterling before, since I wasn't a huge fan. There are multiple copies of Wright cards, 12 to be exact (cards #65-#76 from the...
2006 Topps 52. I have the four from this set below. Base, Chrome /1952, Chrome Refractor /552, Chrome Gold Refractor /52.
2006 Topps Allen & Ginter. I got a slow start on these, since I wasn't sure I'd bother collecting them (similar to how, outside of the base card, I have no desire to...
Going to trudge through all the SP cards, on my way to something more interesting once I reach Topps.
2006 SP Authentic. The base card is actually short printed, numbered /899. Then there are the Baseball Heroes insert set. These were actually not the easiest things to put together, for...
Oh totally, they are pains for sure. And sure, side by side, it is a bit easier to tell the Blue from the Emerald. I got a pretty good photo, all things considered. The Sepias and Black and Whites were actually more difficult for me to tell apart. I made a mistake or two before getting both...
Another day of threes (with one plate for kicks).
2006 Flair Showcase. AT least we have some short printed parallels here :) Base, Legacy Blue /150, Legacy Emerald /150. Why they had to go ahead and use colors that were barely recognizable as different, with the same serial numbering mind...
So, unlike 2005, 2006 doesn't have a ton to offer in terms of cool cards and fun parallels. Like I said before, Wright is featured in a lot less sets (or there were in general a lot less sets of cards made). So, I'm kinda not sure how to go from here. I could bore you with some basic base...
Couple of pickups from the last month or two....
I don't normally go for booklet cards, alas, here are two newer ones. Both 2007 Triple Threads, both Sepia parallels /27. Lot of Sepia parallels, including the card below.
And a 2006 Fleer Tradition Sepia parallel completes my mini rainbow...
And my Topps related stuff....
2006 Topps. There's the three basic cards (four including the 1/1). Those would be the base, Gold /2006, Black /56, and Platinum /1. Then there are these other two. The first is the NY Mets Team Set card, same exact from as the base card. Wright was also part...
2006 Finest. So for this release, there were Refractors and X-Fractors of many colors.....also, lots of different serial numbering for each. Besides the base card, the set went something like this;
Refractor /399, Blue Refractor /299, Green Refractor /199, Black Refractor /99, Gold Refractor...
