Recommendations needed
Any recommendations for a Baseball Card Guide/Catalog that includes all cards from late 1800s to present? There use to be a Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards but I think the last issue was in 2016 after Bob Lemke passed away. The previous guides listed many numerous test/promo/sample/oddball... -
What if Fleer chose a different player?
What if Fleer chose a star rookie in 1989 instead of Bill Ripken for the "FF" card? Here is my version (see if you can come up with the variations): -
Cards that make you go....
Ewwwwww! I DO NOT collect Albert Pubehols. Ebay sellers, take better pics and stop listing with your junk. Gross. -
Do you ever wonder, when will my collection end?
I took a picture of a majority of my Albert Pujols cards this afternoon. It made me think, when will my collection end? I don't know if I can answer that now. I know my collection does not stand up to some of FCB's player collectors but it is decent with stacks of oddball, jumbo cards and low... -
What's better than a Rusty Staub in the middle of your sheet?
I decided to pull the trigger on my birth year, 1969 Topps complete set. Now I need to find the variations, including white letter. -
Time to show your oddballs...
I was searching for Albert Pujols cards and came across this 13 year old oddball I never knew about, a 2012 Scotts Lawn Care Promo. There is also a Cubs Team card & Red Sox Team card but cannot find anything else. Post some of your oddball cards that other collectors might not know about. -
To Rip Or Not?
I just received a sealed box of 2004 Upper Deck MLB Breakey Battle Packs. 40 packs per box and each pack has 5 Keys. Should I start ripping packs or keep box sealed? -
And you thought opening packs of cards was expensive...
Just came across this site and they are offering small batch bottles for $49 and you do not know who the player will be on the cork... -

Forgotten Tough Parallels
I was searching for tough Albert Pujols cards and came across this Ken Griffey Jr 2003 Leaf Retro Logo. I had forgotten they were limited to /25. I doubt I will find a Pujols now. Post some other parallels that you think other collectors may have forgotten or known about. -
You know you have messed up when...
You fall 6' from ladder, shatter both wrists and fracture L1 lumbar all at 53 y/o while trying to hang a ghost. I am recovering but cannot mess with cards for awhile -

Show a screenshot of a card you were bidding on that ended at way more than you expected. I will start with this AP: -
Fanatics Card Production
I just watched a clip on on Fanatics website showing cards in production line. I can see pack fresh damaged cards in our future with the attached screenshot. I sure hope they are not loose like that. -
2003 NIKETOWN Promo baseball cards
Are any of you familiar with the 2003 NIKETOWN Promo baseball cards? I have never heard of or seen one in all these years since 2003. I searched for them and found another player on comc. -
A different 1/1
Yes, I collect Albert Pujols oddball items. Here is my latest 1/1 that is not a card but was inserted in packs. 2005 Topps Pack Wars Chip Albert Pujols. Post your favorite player's 1/1 in your collection here. -
Anyone here very familiar with Minor League card issues?
As some of you might know that I am an Albert Pujols collector, I recently came across an auction for a 2000 Midwest League Top Prospects set with a PSA 8 of AP. Upon closer inspection, the AP has a "ring" around "Top Prospect" on front of card. Most APs from this set do not have the ring... -
How fake is this Mantle?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mickey-Mantle-Machine-PACK-1-Auto-Relic-1-Card-From-1939-To-1969-READ-BELOW-/265340803346?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 First thing I noticed was the yellow box with Yankees logo does not have a black bottom border -
My cards and my mom
I started collecting baseball cards in 1979 when I got my first pack from my dad's pharmacy. In that pack was a Reggie Jackson All Star and Paul Molitor. I went all in with 1980 Topps trading with friends. My collection continued growing over the years and I would sort by stacks of teams. They... -
Error/Variation collectors
I am an Albert Pujols collector and have similar 2000 Multi-Ad Peoria Chiefs in my collection. Most of these I see online have the Top Prospect without the "ring" around it. Do any of you know about this "ring" variation? I would guess that about 1 in 25 have the ring. -
What do you store your cards in?
I have my Pujols collection in a bank safe in my man cave. I purchased my childhood home 2 years ago and my dad had this safe installed for his gun collection when I was a teenager. -
Now this is a tough set to complete
2010 Upper Deck Exquisite Baseball for only $15,000. Ebay item 223656813899. It says only 7 of each player made when serial # shows /75. No way I could afford putting this set together, yet alone getting an Albert Pujols. Too rich for my blood. Sent from my SM-G960U using Freedom Card Board... -
The National Sports Collectors Convention
I have never been to the NSCC and I am turning 50 on August 3rd. Is it worth the 6 hour drive to Chicago on my birthday to attend the convention? Sent from my SM-G960U using Freedom Card Board mobile app -

Another Topps Security Breach
I just saw this breach listed in a phone app of mine and thought I would share with you in case you have purchased from Topps website. Apparently this is not the first time this has happened to Topps as one occurred in 2016. Here is a link to the article... -
Graded card tampering
Is it easy to open a PSA graded card case, replace with a lesser condition card and reseal it without the obvious cracks in the seal or case? I recently purchased a PSA 10 Pujols card from a well known ebayer and the seal appears to be loose on inside case around the top & bottom of card's edges...
