Mark Grace collector
Hello all and thanks for the concern. I've had health problems all last year due to diabetes. It affected my kidneys, heart and especially my eyes. I've had 3 eye surgeries, and my vision sucks. So hard just to type this or read screens. It's taken the fun out of collecting. Also going through...- gracecollector

Thoughts on 1990 Topps Sammy Sosa Ink error
It's a printing hickey. You can Google the term for an explanation of how they occur. Most consider them a defect, not an error card with added value.- gracecollector

Vintage Pick Up Thread
Found this for my local baseball collection. In Aoril 1964, Dizzy Trout visited Marengo IL as a guest speaker for a Father/Son banquet. Trout was employed by the White Sox front office at that time as a team ambassador. Trout was a great storyteller, having been an announcer for several years...- gracecollector

Odd fielding glove swatch - what is it?
Can't figure out why there's woven material adhered to this Vladimir fielding glove relic? Any idea what it is - maybe medical tape? Not sure what purpose adhering it to glove leather serves. Ideas?- gracecollector

RIP Vida Blue
I always thought these were a cool couple of cards from 1983 Fleer.- gracecollector

Venezuela Sticker 1990?
Thanks for posting trickey! I purchased the Mark Grace. Haven't heard of 1990 Venezuelan stickers before, but photos give me the legit vibe, along with miked211's review.- gracecollector

Retro Donruss, Fleer, and Topps box breaks: First post (and visit) in the forums in 13 years
Your 1998 Donruss box prices are all about the Crusade chase. You're likely to get the inserts you mention - plus a cool production line card - and no Crusade, but there is the chance. You have seen the crazy amounts people are paying for Crusades, correct? Honestly, not a great time to be...- gracecollector

The "Cameo" Thread
The blue foil version shouldn't have cost you much. I do think it's a cool action shot. Womack's 1998 Topps Gallery card uses a photo from the same play! What do you think - I think the Gallery photo is a fraction of a second before the Bowman photo?- gracecollector

The "Cameo" Thread
I recently, after 20 years of looking, found the gold foil autograph of this 1998 Bowman Tony Womack. It's limited to 25 copies. Here it is with the Silver (75 copies) and Blue (500 copies). Definitely my most expensive cameo!- gracecollector

Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3
Success after 20 years of looking for the gold foil 1998 Bowman autograph of Tony Womack (I'm nothing if not patient). Have all three versions now, blue (500 copies), silver (75 copies) and gold (25 copies). All that for a Mark Grace cameo appearance!- gracecollector
