    Player Collectors - Topps Target?

    Teamsets4u has all of the '03 Showdown Yankees. You'd have to ask Jeff which sets contain your guy. https://www.teamsets4u.com/listview.cgi?search=1&searchtext=2003+MLB+Showdown+Yankees Good luck! :-)

    2005 Diamond Kings Challenge 1/1

    <shrug> Fairly easy to do this - Tanner can easily testify. Would take me about 10 minutes - mostly with the logo - to print one out. Glue is cheap. Stamp Kits can be had for about thirty bucks. Just sayin'. But, as you say, one has to take your chance. We're all adults here. Me too. But...

    2005 Diamond Kings Challenge 1/1

    This has been troubling me for a full day now. Something hinky about it. But to be fair, I can't fully recall the details of the Challenge Exchange program. It certainly could be legit. But... Here, I picked this up this afternoon (Mike Sweeney version) because of this very question...

    Leave it to Magic to 'gently encourage' (prodded?) board participation. <wink> ;-D JD it's difficult to say looking at your provided images. I ran it through Photoshop to get a sense of what colors could be extracted - a far cry from definitive, but it often gives an idea of what's 'there'...

    I forgot who the Frank Thomas collector on the boards is....

    Thanks Magic. :-) I'm covered on this one. <nod> Lance ;-)

    It always seemed so selfish to me...

    Just got back from Mililani (upper O'ahu) and I wanted to express my deep thanks and appreciation to every member who responded or put in a good word with/to whomever. Whether you believe or not, my family and I are very grateful. <nod> Looks like spam musubi for dinner.. and late night...

    It always seemed so selfish to me...

    To ask for everyone's prayers. But I'm asking, not just for my family - but for everyone in the islands - we could use your prayers for safe passage. My wife and I are right at the edge of the evacuation zone, so I don't know. To make this board appropriate: I'll try to save a few cards, but...

    Frank Thomas collectors thread

    Recent events have forced a critical change in the way I'll be collecting from this point going forward. I won't delve into it since so many have gone down the same or similar road - suffice to say that I have to deal with new realities. This does not mean I've "moved on" or otherwise leaving...

    Busy as bees around here so I have to make this quick. I don't know about the rest of you guys - but I'm getting seriously pissed at the Bob Feller Museum. It's been two months now and I don't even get a friggin' courtesy email. :evil:

    Two things Steve. One, I love your understated deadpan introduction. Takes skill a lot of people don't have. ;) Two, I'm soooo glad you don't do Thomas. Lance ;-D

    Hey Bull, http://www.sportslogos.net/logo.php?id=1953 And did I read correctly - the "foil"? The only foil I've seen from this issue are 1/1s - is that what sold? {:-0 If so, I'm amazed that a seller would use COMC for something that rare. Lance ;-D

    Frank Thomas collectors thread

    It really was only a matter of time. My estimate was a year. Just goes to show you that opportunistic aholes are ready and willing to go on their scams almost instantly. Remember I mentioned that it was only a matter of time before some slick knucklehead decided to take advantage of the recent...

    That is one of the best collecting statements I have ever read on this board. Kudos JD. Post thanked.

    Not sure myself JD. But I lean toward 'fake'. As you pointed out, the only card the guides acknowledge is the '95 Leaf Statistical Standouts - but that was 'validated' if you will because the individual number stamp was clearly incomplete. So you knew it was a promo. Plus, I can testify to...

    Bull - your constant work on the NNOF/Blackless never ceases to amaze me. Well done. <nod of deep respect>

    super beta,,,,,, thoughts?????????????????

    Interesting! I didn't know about one particular sale for my guy - that was very informative. Additionally, I see I misremembered a past sale. I really like this feature. My only suggestion would be to make the background white. For some reason that shade of gray looks dingy & unprofessional...

    Frank Thomas collectors thread

    Nice. <nodding> I have a fondness for Prime Patches myself, but it's a collecting road loaded with nasty blind turns and potholes - aka Burge fakes - so that it's difficult to appreciate without a jaundiced eye.
