This ranks up there as one of the odder items I have added. A primary ballot from CA showing Garvey as a candidate for Senator.

It was $4...was not sure what I'd be willing to pay when I first saw one, as the other one I saw listed at $9.99 OBO and that was too much. Free shipping helped too.


May 2024 Big League. I like these cards each year. Fun designs. Reminds of days gone by with simpler designs and such.

A good mail day today.

Sporting Life custom Garvey/Ryan/Rose 1/1

Garvey mini A&G back.

A paid of Dodger Lofton cards. His first, I believe, other than possibly an Archive buyback. one is /199 the other /25. Couldn't win one to save my life. i had an offer in on the /199 and as soon as I won the /25, the offer was accepted. It goes that way for me quite a bit, but I can life with that. I don't mind dupes.

It appears the /25 is a jersey # match to boot.



Reese auto print


A pair of Gonsolin Archives. One /56, the other /99

Gonzalez /51


Vargas /18


5 Russell Martin autos

 

[mrmopar]

Garvey /15 /50 /99

Pepiot /50
Garciaparra /20.

Craig /25. Too bad it's a Giants card.

This qualifies for the Garvey/Dodgers thread. 1974 Topps checklist sheet.

 

[mrmopar]

Garvey /22. A newer insert card, cards your mom threw out or something similar. Don't like those quite as much as "vintage" buybacks, not that 85 would be vintage though.
76 Topps team checklist sheet

Can't get enough of these more obscure Dodger archives. This particular is a dupe too. /18.

Ishii.

Interesting photo with Wills and Willie Davis

1959 Dodgers record with Vin Scully Full size, 33 1/3 rpm, I think. I didn't take it out to try to play.

 

[mrmopar]

Sheff /200.

Alston.

This literally showed up today, the day I read that he is leaving the Dodgers after a very short tenure! It's a new one for the list, but with new roster ads this year and a few stubborn older players, I am up to needing 9, possibly 10 to complete the LA run. Landon Knack makes 10, but I may have a card of his already. I forget.

Murray /10.

LoDuca /15.

This is a continuation of my great mail day share, started at the monthly pick-up thread. The Dodger part of the mailday was equally exciting...

Sheehan Heritage is the first from the set for me. Still hope to land an Outman at a decent price.

A pair of Garvey /25.


Scratched TWO off the Dodger wantlist today. I can't remember the last time I added 2 players in one day. Feyereisen and Covey.


The big news in Dodgertown is the discovery (for me at least) of a previously unknown Pepsi Dodger item, this one is a Don Sutton application from 1974! I absolutely love this stuff and hope to still find more in the future.

One day I will get a picture of everyone in one shot, but I have grown quite a nice little collection of this former kids club memorabilia. I always appreciate new Line Drives, but compared to the application, they are garbage!!

Garvey /150


I had a few of these, but ended up winning it for $5.50 plus shipping. /70


Green /15. Another out of it's case, but it was cheap enough to not care too much.

 

[mrmopar]

Garvey /25 (again)


Newcombe /99

 

[mrmopar]

Garv 199 x2, but the Chrome blue is 66, a double uni number card and one I collect when I find them.

Vargas /50.

I picked up a couple "out of case" Green Archive Signatures recently. Up until now, I only got encased from Archives Signature Retired edition.
I'm trying to figure out if people opened up cases, or if they were pulled like this, "leftovers" slated at ARchives Signature retired,
inserted into Archives and Archives Signature [not retired] without the case.

Big D. Can never have enough of these at bargain prices.

I assume people have opened them, but I don't know this for sure
