Down to only one Erstad card missing from 2005 Absolute:

2005 Absolute Memorabilia Team Six Swatch Single Spectrum Anaheim Angels/25 16

Would love to pick it up.

Yah, there are five cards, all from the 05 TOTT Single Jumbo Reverse "Update" set, that are way harder to find than their serial number might indicate. The cards are:

TT-111 Casey Fossum /150
TT- 133 Joe Mays /50
TT-138 Josh Phelps /50
TT-143 Kevin Millwood /100
TT-144 Kevin Millwood /150

I own the Casey Fossum, Joe Mays and Kevin Millwood /150. All three of them are the ONLY example of each that I have ever seen!!! Your guess is as good as mine as to why these five cards are next to impossible to find. I do have a few theories, some more ridiculous than others. My best guess is that when they stamped the cards they mistakingly placed an additional "0" at the end of the claimed serial number. So if I'm correct, the Millwood /150 is actually limited to /15 copies and the Phelps /50 is actually limited to /5... Just a guess th

Don’t forget the 6th elusive one…TT-139 Juan Pierre /150! Interesting theory on the numbering. Those names are continuously difficult to find throughout all of the TOTT game used cards, not just the jumbos.

Holy ****, been wondering where you've been! Hope you're doing great! I sold off most of my jumbos, had my collection stolen but got most of them back, and am picking cards up as I see them. Also started to continue the 6 piece set. I got about 2/3 of the stolen set back and have recently added this 1/1.

Makes me wonder if we've ever dealt, especially on ebay. I haven't sold one of these for years, but this was a recent pickup. Then the Hudson I've had forever because I like how you can see the swatch portion on the photo.
I’m sure we have!! I buy as many as I can. That Thomas is nice! Nicer then both of mine

So I searched my backlog bulk subs to see if I had any serial # or base Absolute slabs not scanned or coming back
Might have some new ones to show off soon from this sub below = if it ever comes back from march
They are all base serial # item stuff I finally subbed when taxes came back

Baseball 1 2005 Absolute Memorabilia Tools of the Trade Red 175 Roger Clemens
Baseball 1 2005 Absolute Memorabilia Tools of the Trade Blue 175 Roger Clemens
Baseball 1 2005 Absolute Memorabilia Tools of the Trade Black 175 Roger Clemens
Baseball 1 2005 Absolute Memorabilia Heroes AH21 Roger Clemens

And haven't shown this one off in a while so I'll have it make its every now and then appearance
Still haven't found his brother, or the other recollection auto they supposedly inserted


Sometimes I question the accuracy of DLP's lists as we all know manufacturers lists were trash and were more like "planned" production and not "actual" produced stuff :unsure:
