Always thought this set was interesting. Just picked up a complete run of 1999 Topps Chrome McGwires (70 cards) and Sosa (66 cards). Must have cost the seller a small fortune and a lot of time to assemble! Happy to pick this one up with a lot less hassle.
Nice!
Sweet Heston deal too

I didn't mean to do anything. Just a typo. Great pickup.I see what you did there.

Thanks! Long time no speak btw. Hope all is well by you!
Thanks! It was one of those cards that back when the set was released I could only dream about. (Now I feel like an old man picking up "cards from my youth" lol. I guess that's what the guys buying the 52 Mantles feel like)
Thanks!
I'm guessing a certain JJ has you partial to the 2002 set. Prospect Premieres was a pretty interesting set. I remember ripping the 2002 set and pulling a BJ Upton back when he was a really big deal.
It's not a patch, but not bad
Just added this one. With the way he's been playing I've actually started to feel like these are undervalued, so when I had a chance to get one for a (relatively) decent price I went for it (still absolutely pushed the upper limits on my wallet lol). Not sure how long I will hold on to it, but it's pretty sweet.

It has been a while! Congrats on the amazing pick-ups!

Thanks! I've been spending less time on the computer, and the app has been giving me trouble.

I finally pulled the trigger on this Torre auto, to go alongside my Zimmer, then decided to add the Stottlemyer to complete the late 90's Yankees brain trust.

Sweet cards. I actually just opened a box from that set. If there is anyone else you are looking for from it, let me know as I may have it. (I know I pulled the Paul O'Neil as well as Lee Mazzilli who was a coach for part of the run...

Nice Yankee pickups gracecollector
Finally got a Zimmer myself. Wanted IP/TTM auto of his for my 98 Yankees project, gives me 32/45 players & coaches from that year. Too a while to find one signed by Zimmer and not his wife. Also some other pickups over last few weeks. Resorting to basketball for my patch fixes as Yankee patches are rather boring.

The eTopps cards are gorgeous! Like other uncirculated cards the hard part is finding one in the original scratch free case

Yeah, that's a great point. Fortunately, I have another of this card in a lightly scratched case. I've never had a card graded before but this one (not in a case anymore) might be a good one to start with.

Thanks! It's a new collecting focus for me, but I've been looking for line-up cards from managers who are HOF'ers or significant people in baseball history. Also picked up a Trammell recently.
