I'd love to find the following Kirby Puckett's and others...

2) 2004 Leaf Exhibits (I need 16 or 17 to complete the run)

Did you buy the '04 Exhibits Puckett that was on eBay today for about 4 hours before it sold?

It's one of checklist press proofs which is hard to find for some reason. Since it doesn't say press proof on it (it's just gold foil) I think most people don't know that they have it.

Another example of how these boards help other collectors. I don't have the '95 Donruss Puckett Checklist, and I also had no clue that the checklist press proofs are gold foil and don't say "press proof" on them, so thanks for the info!

Gotcha , been a while since I've handled 95' Donruss. I'll keep an eye out.

My pleasure. I'm active on a few boards but am always amazed by how much knowledge everyone has here and how willing everyone is to help each other out.

I'll have to look at the checklists too verify but I thought the 96 was the unlabeled press proof. I got the exhibits card this morning. Only about 40 more to go.

Griffey:


1998 Topps Gold Label Class 2 Red #/50
1998 Topps Gold Label Class 3 Red #/25
1999 Topps Gold Label Class 3 Red #/25
1999 Topps Gold Label Race To Aaron # RA2 Red #/44

1998 Donruss Production Line On Base Percentage #/382

The first five listed are ones that I will probably never be able to add to my collection. The bottom four are more realistic.

Knocked another one off the list today, the starring role. A revised list (Albert Belle cards):

1996 Mirror Gold #22

1998 topps gold label red (any of the 3 classes)

Any super raves

1998 ultra platinum medallion #28 numbered /98

1998 bowmans best atomic refractor /100 (and the autographed version of one does exist)

1998 Epix Emerald (except the moments all star)

1997 Bowmans best mirror image inverted refractor and inverted atomic refractor. Just picked up the regular version inverted a couple days ago, can't seem to find much information on odds or print runs of the inverted refractors and inverted atomic refractors.

There's a full 40 card Milestone set and a 4 card Griffey Milestone set on ebay right now. I hate to say it, but a Griffey HR ended for around $15 a few months ago. Seems like that should be an easier card to find than it is.

Thank you [MENTION=6164]DeliciousBacon[/MENTION]

I contacted the seller of the set of four and he didn't want to break up the four and I didn't contact the other seller. I reckon they don't want to break up their complete set.

Hopefully, one will show up.

I will have to look but I might have one of the Epix emerald cards as a double... and maybe the Platinum medallion... I will have to check. Most of the others I have but no doubles. I will keep my eye out for these for you!!
