Then 1 pack of 2012 Topps Chrome

Got a VERY bowed Chipper Jones black refractor /100

Pretty cool looking card.

Any plans for the Bogusevic and the Chipper cards Charlie?

Bob,a handsome dude, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down next to a blonde at the bar and stared up at the TV. The 10 pm news was coming on. The news crew was covering the story of a man on the ledge of a large building preparing to jump.
The blonde looked at Bob and said, "Do you think he'll jump?"
Bob said,"You know, I bet he'll jump."
The blonde replied, "Well, I bet he won't."
Bob placed a$20 bill on the bar and said, "You're on!" Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy on the ledge did a swan dive off the building, falling to his death. The blonde was very upset, but willingly handed her $20 to Bob, saying, "Fair's fair. Here's your money."
Bob replied,"I can't take your money. I saw this earlier on the 5 pm news, and so I knew he would jump." The blonde replied, "I did too, but didn't think he'd do it again." Bob took the money...

I have never even seen that Dawson card before

Pretty sure it was a magazine insert.

Yeah UL - where did you see that sheet? I'd love a copy! Never seen that Ballstreet before - can't believe I haven't seen it being 25+ years old! Any info on issue date? Only have this Ballstreet in the PC:

91BALLSTREET.jpg

Well, that is certainly an interesting piece. Does it have a year? This is the closest thing I have to that...

1992 Ballstreet Journal 16.jpg

It's a magazine insert, as Chas figured. I believe it's from '92 or so (might be able to figure out just from the players included) - I'll take another look at it tonight and let you know if I come across any identifying info. Maybe I'll scan the back and post it. I don't know when/where I got it (maybe from a random magazine, maybe from a program from a game at Wrigley); I just recently stumbled upon it as I was going through boxes of random stuff I should probably get rid of.

Well, it looks like you've got two takers, for diff players. Cut the sheet and split it between the two? Make them partake in a duel with the winner getting the whole sheet? Find the Sandberg collector too and you could have a threeway battle royale...

Looking for Alex Rodriguez Cards, PM me.

Those are usually available underneath the mat anyways, so throw the steel cage on and lets do it!

Here is my Ballstreet Andre Dawson, it is 1991 and I thought I had a variation of it but it was a Boardwalk and Baseball card I was think of. I have not counted my oddball Dawson cards yet, but I know I have at least a handful of these cards. It is very unusual for me to find a Dawson card that I did not even know existed and I collect magazine insert sheets so its not like this is a new collecting medium to me. What an awesome day to see a new card. Thank you so much for the pic!

The only year all of those players played on the Cubs was 1992.
