Just wanted to give you all a heads up- a seller on COMC (not me) has listed this morning what looks to be a complete set run of the 2014 Topps 1st Editions of which only 10 were made. He has the majority priced at $4.75, which is a steal considering the circumstances.
Curiously, for some...
So I know we have brought this up many times over the years, as my search brought it up in posts dating back to 2010, but can’t seem to find if we really got anywhere on it.
Did anybody ever create a guide to identifying all the color parallels for 2007 Upper Deck Masterpiece? They are...
Well a compromise has finally been reached with Mrs. Doerrcollector and it seems it's time to send off the majority of my collection to COMC.
Don't worry-no Doerr or Joyce or PC items are going anywhere, they is all the other odds and ends. Have tried to sell on eBay over the last year with...
Kinda related to the card/collectible world
"Toy store chain Toys R Us is planning to sell or close all 800 of its U.S. stores, affecting as many as 33,000 jobs as the company winds down its operations after six decades, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The news comes six months...
Sources (lol) inside the Sox organization are telling me this AM that Devers will be in Pawtucket by Monday the latest.
Releasing Peralta yesterday and Sandoval today are meant to clear the way for him. Lin will stay with the club as the everyday 3rd baseman for now...
Thanks,

I was waiting until I had this card in hand until I posted about it, but it has long been in the top 5 of my Most Wanted Doerr cards.
Information was always sketchy on the card and set in general...
First post in a long time for me, but it's a big one!
Finally was able to add to my collection a tough, rare, and mostly unknown key card to my Doerr collection. Everyone knows about 1951 Topps Red & Blue Backs along with the Connie Mack All stars, but did you know about another set from Topps...
Love him or hate him (my personal best memory of him is Varitek smacking him in the face but I'm bias) he changed the game in more ways than one.
Last game is tonight live on Fox (which is only broadcasting it so they can sign him as a analyst for the postseason).
Ceremony on the field just...
Stumbled upon a interesting and unique item last night in my search for Doerr and was able to wrap up a deal with the seller this AM.
It's a signed RSVP letter/sheet that Doerr sent back to the Hall of Fame confirming that he would be attending the July 31, 1993 Baseball Hall of Fame Golf and...
Excluding team sets and the damn Rawlings glove card, this is the last pre-1980 Doerr card I need.
Have never seen one and hard to find info on this 35-card set. Like most TCMA issues, it's probably a underappreciated. Google search for it turns up the checklist, but nothing concrete in terms...
Stumbled upon these while digging thru the goodies I brought back from my 1990s collection at my parents house.
Having a hard time trying to tracking down a lot of info or pricing on them thou. From what I have found I think they are 1992 MLBPA Vincentown Pins/Buttons, but only have found a...
So I've posted before how I love to pickup old scorecards that feature Doerr from back in the day. Prefer that they are scored and generally look for game in which Doerr made a big play ie home run, got only hit of the game off Bob Feller, etc. They have to be at the right price as well as some...
Just was able to snag this great press/wire-
Awesome shot from a Spring Training game in 1951. Unfortunately looks like Doerr was out at home.
I happen to love adding these photos to my collection, but only it the price is right. Whether it's the former journalist me or something else, all...
In my continuing quest to make my Doerr checklist as accurate as possible, I went on Amazon last night looking to grab the 2015 edition of the Standard Catalog of Baseball cards. Nowhere to be found-I see a 2015 printing of the Standard Catalog of Vintage Baseball cards, but the last Standard...
Afternoon all! Seems like everyday we have a post about how generous members here are, and today's going to be no different.
Back when he was roaming the floor at Nationals, Dustin sent me a message asking if I collected Rack packs of Doerr. I messaged him back saying of course, and if he...
Good morning all! Reset day at the store today-hopefully will be out in time to catch the late games!
And police report from Monday has been filled but they again told us to not expect anything to come from it-crazy that even with fingerprints they don't have much faith/enthusiasm to find the...
Figured I would give it a shot before I go out and grab the whole set. Looking to complete my Lance Niekro collection and these are the final two minor league cards I've yet to track down. I know where I can get them online in set form, but don't really want to spend $25 per just to get the...
Big news breaking tonight as the Red Sox shake things up majorly. Bringing in Dombrowski was a needed move with Lucchino leaving but I'm stunned about Cherington. I was the minority of fans who thought it was more Lucchino's fault the last two years and that Ben deserved a chance on his own. Now...
Just downloaded Topps Bunt and looking for some clarification on how it works? Similar to one-day fantasy but with cards? Also what's everyone's opinion on it-still not to sure since it looks like you will never see the actually cards in hand?
Thanks,
Jeff
Recently grabbed another oddball/sample card off of eBay right when it popped up. Did a little research to just see if it was real (the sample on the back looked iffy, but I think that if the auto/game used had just been removed it would of been serial # on the back) but couldn't find anything...
Saw him tweet (@tradercracks) that Friday was his last day as Editor of Cardboard Connection. Later Olds posted this story saying he starts at Beckett at the National

Anybody got thoughts on this. I really enjoyed...
A good amount of product have hit the streets by now, and holy parallels Batman! According to Beckett, I have 48 new Doerr cards to chase, with 19 of those 1/1s (12 are printing plates :( )!!! Not sure whether to be upset with all the parallels or overjoyed lol. The chase will definitely be fun...
