Hey guys, got my 2 Blue Wave packs today. Haven't been really following prospects these days. How'd I do?
Nice to get an auto out of these. Thanks for looking!
Hey all,
So today's mail delivery brought to my door my 50th Tony Gwynn autographed card. I started collecting Gwynn a while ago, but focused on mainly autos about 2-3 years ago. While the average Gwynn auto is fairly affordable, I've picked up some pricier ones here and there. I figured for...
Hey pals,
One of my favorite things about this community is the generosity often displayed by the members. I can't count the times I've seen a member say they got a random package from another member on here with something nice in it for no reason at all. I know I've sent a few things out...
Hey all,
I've been on and off trying to put together the 2009 Goodwin Mini Black Border set for a couple years. Also working on the much less likely foil (silver, chrome, whatever you call it) mini set. Here's my needs
Black:
1, 5, 7, 8, 9, 15, 22, 23, 27, 32, 34, 38, 45, 52, 58, 60, 66...
Hey pals,
So I recently brought some stuff for in person PSA submission at the White Plains show a couple weeks back. In total, I submitted 7 cards, with one coming back "questionable authenticity." A good portion of the others already had other COAs, but I wanted them slabbed PSA. Here's...
Hey all,
So my local shop had Leaf Wrestling boxes on Black Friday special for $60, so I decided to try a box. I love old school wrestling and these boxes looked cool from what I've seen. REALLY happy with the hits!

Hey all,
I got a couple Yankees Partial Team Balls (see my other thread posted today) and I was looking for help in identifying some of the autos.
I'm pretty sure on the years, based on the sigs on each ball, but please correct me if I'm wrong. I tried to identify as many as I could, but I...
Hey all,
I received a pack today from a friend who I met a couple years ago through another friend. Last time we saw each other, we talked baseball for a while and he knew I was a collector. He texted me out of the blue last week and said "Let me get your address. I have a late wedding gift...
Hey all,
Just wanted to say hello! I haven't been doing much posting here or collecting for that matter in the last few months. I got married last month (Oct 20th) and the missus and I paid for the whole wedding which kind of tied up all our finances for a while leaving me with no funds for...
Hey all,
I need some help with these tickets that a buddy of mine was kind enough to give to me. He got them from an uncle I believe. Just kind of curious if anyone can help tell me when they were from. They appear to be pre-Steinbrenner Era, but not sure when. The name is the president on...
Hey all,
Isn't there a patch database somewhere? I need some help identifying the patch on this card...

Thanks!
Let's hear it! I have two friends in different parts of the state that are starting to get into collecting and I'm trying to steer them to a good shop.
Personally, I'm partial to Bob's Sports Cards in Howell. Love that shop. Great guy, great selection of wax. Has a little of everything...
Well, I finally got my 2011 Museum Collection Auto in after waiting & waiting and I must say...
These truly are as awesome as they have been hyped.
I had to chase the mailman down the street because I came home a few moments after he dropped the dreaded "pick up" slip...
Hey all,
Got a nice mailday today. Sent one of my first TTM's ever to Scott Brosius. He was one of my favorite Yankees and I thought kind of an unsung hero of those late 90's teams. Glad to say I got it back today, done very nicely!
I do kind of wish he used the blue pen I sent...
Had to get another...
Not great, but one pretty nice card.

Hey all,
I've been wanting to pick up one of these for a while and I finally had a few bucks to do so. I want to eventually get it encapsulated, but it has a full letter from JSA, so that's good enough for me for now...
Thanks for looking! Comments welcome...
So I used a few Tax Return bucks to break some of this stuff. I really like it! Some great looking cards. I'll let the scans do the talking...

Hey all,
Spent the last couple days in Cooperstown and got the itch so I stopped in one of the shops and they had some 04 Fleer GOTG. I bust a box and 5 packs and this is what they yielded...
I thought not too bad!
Here's a close up of the Bench, numbered /79...
Thanks for looking!
Ok guys and gals. Taking a trip to Cooperstown with the lady in a couple weeks and I want to know what your favorite food spot is there. Thanks in advance!
Hello knowledgeable FCBers,
I'm looking for any info anyone has on 1984 Nestle Baseball sets. I thought I heard they were only available in uncut sheets and any singles you find are ones people cut themselves. Any truth to that? Also, what's the story with the "Black & White" and/or "B&W...
