i got this card in to complete a basic Topps PSA player set
It was hard to pass up with a .99 starting auction even though I had a couple I was planning to sub.
Here is the rest of the Topps run including update/traded set issues. I still need to upgrade the 88 and 91 from 9s to 10s
I thought I would post a link to my current progress on my Darryl Strawberry basic PSA 10 collection. I am about 1 year into this project and began with just the goal of adding Fleer and Topps. Well I have expanded it to His basic set, plus update issues and a few other (right now just the 1984...
Officially started this set in February, so I was able to finish it in less than 4 months, several were raw submits, and I will possibly upgrade a few down the road. I hope to add 81-94 Donruss and Fleer as well.
well here are the scans:
1968 - 1971
1972 - 1975
1976 - 1979
1980 - 1983...
This is not the sub I am waiting on, but still glad to get this one back. I have one that has been sitting there for a month longer that I really am anxious about, the main card I wanted to hit a 10 on I did, that being the Harper Heritage Action so I can't complain too much
Not quite what I...
Not what you are thinking. I opened 2013 and 2014 Heritage
The 2014 Heritage Hobby was abysmal. Will have to double check, but did not even notice an action variant
2013 Heritage Box much better
Here are some scans:
2013 Heritage box started out much better with this as the topper...
I have a fascination with Topps Update and Traded sets. It started with this card as a kid:
Also of course the 1982 Topps Traded Ripken is probably the most famous and coveted of all traded / update cards in a high grade. I love the 84 and up until recently I considered the 1986 Topps Traded...
As a way of introduction, I am a long time collector. Some here may know me from various message boards in the past. I collect many different things, but I love basic rcs the most. I have nothing against autograph cards or patch cards, but not my focus. I am a fan of history so I like to...
Some mixed results. A few I am very happy with.

I have not collected much basketball for one reason. Back in 1986 I bought a decent amount of Fleer. I put together 2 sets and had 3 Jordan RCs as well as at least 5 each of all the other major stars. i ended up selling all of them in 1989 for a fraction of what they are worth now. I could never...
Overall I can't complain
Not thrilled with my Strawberry's in this sub. I was the least sure about the Drakes and 89 Fleer by 2 10s. I thought the 84 Topps and 84 Nestle were slam dunk 10s. Oh well here are the results. Also exceptionally pissd about the Brady / Rattay card. But happy with a...
I grade everything with PSA for several reasons, uniformity is one since I am incredibly anal about my collection. I have not graded any auto cards because of it, and I always thought it hurt them, and besides Sub grades it was the one legitimate thing I thought BGS had over PSA. Well now as...
I am not exactly thrilled with all of these. I am with a few of course, like any sub. As you know the 84 Donruss Strawberry will not do, shaking my head most on the Jordans and the 93 Topps jeter. My son submitted the Villar his first ever sub. 1/1 on 10s not bad

I have been chasing these 1/1s for 15 years now. I am wondering just how many of each player they made. If you are unfamiliar with the set, there are 20 players in it. 1 I collect Tim Rattay. Each card is a 1/1 which highlights a specific achievement in the players college career. After my mail...
I just created an account on the blowout message board and cannot post yet There is a lot that a seller posted that j would like to buy but cannot contact him can someone post on the link so I can buy the lot. It is for the RC lot with Griffey Jr upper deck
thanks
Really happy with this sub. Especially with the Craig Biggio Tucson Toros for my personal collection!

Looking for several different things
1986-1988 Fleer basketball.
Bryce Harper Topps
2010 Topps Pro Debut Trout
2012-2015 Topps/Heritage/bowman Trout
other nice rookies in football baseball and basketball, no inserts no gu and do not really collect autos unless they are a rc auto.
I have not been on any message boards in a while, thought I would post a new set I am working on to re-introduce myself. If you have been around for more than few years you may know me, I always use the same name on every message board
Here is a link to the set:

I rarely buy stuff anymore, unless I see Rattay stuff pop up that I do not have. I actually found 3 cards in the last week after nothing over the past year.
First a couple of 2002 GU options:
2002 Pacific Heads Up Quads Gold /45
2002 Private Stock Reserve Jersey Numbers /13

I think most of the guys on this board know me. Some may not. I have been around the boards since mid 2000s. Mainly the CP / TCG crowd knows me (small group of misfits). If you want to look at what I collect you will get a pretty good idea from this post. Here are some shots of my home...
