FCB Tournament 5 - Wood Cards - We Have a Winner!

[BunchOBull]

Glad I could help Tanner, that particular set is a passion of mine. I was even lucky enough to get backdoored copies of the non-winner exchange cards to complete my sets.

Seriously made my day/week/month What is a backdoored non-winner exchange? I'm curious about this!

So, not all players hit home runs on their dates, so they weren't available for exchange. Some years later, a printing employee sold off a couple of complete silver and gold exchange sets, including those whom failed to homer.

Oh that is cool. I love that kind of stuff.

Congrats to BOB and Frank!

Personally, I am a fan of wood cards. I know the printing sometimes does not look as nice, but they give a different look and feel that I like. While it was not in this tourney, I particularly loved Tanner's Canseco wood card made from a GU bat.

Thanks everyone for submitting and voting.

I'll see what we can do next.

I call shenanigans! How could Jose have lost?! Kidding congratulations BoB! The card you chose to enter is awesome and just one of several in your collection that could have taken the whole thing.

Rigged election!



But great cards all!

I'm just lucky there are so many '90s traditionalists amoungst the crowd. There are some serious dollars in cards posted up there on the ladder, and some mega-rarity.

I honestly love your Canseco Tanner, and would love to have a Thomas like that in my collection...some classic wood with a beautiful signature atop. Thanks for letting me participate, I'm looking forward to the next ladder.

Rigged election!

So....you were willing to accept the results of the election as long as your card won? I think I heard that recently from someone else...
