Don’t usually post my little pickups but I treated myself to this this month. Probably won’t ever shell out for one nicer lol

2003 Topps Kanebo Hideki Matsui

Matsui didn't have any Topps/Bowman cards from 2003, except for this card released in Japan featuring the Topps base design. I've wanted this card for the longest time, excited to add one 15 years later. Not terribly valuable I imagine, but a tough oddball to find and happy to add it to my team set.

Nice Godzilla! Topps is finally including him in recent releases.

Some things from the Nationals:

2012 Topps Heritage Hobby box for waaaaayyy under current market

The Trout was mine, but I got it slabbed on-site.

The Ruth blue tint is beyond hard to find. I have scoured eBay and Worthpoint. Only one other has sold.

I also picked up a ton of Topps Heritage chromes, refractors and SSPs I needed for my 2001 - 2012 sets, but I'll spare you the pictures. They'll end up in the Google Drive link in my sig this weekend.

Chipping away on the 1950s and 1960s Yankees, another one down.

Thank you for the kind words on the Kanebo. I had picked up the entire Yankees team set, just scanned the Matsui to post since that was my most wanted. The Rivera and Jeter are up there too. ::cool:

When you have to have every Mark Grace rookie card in PSA10, including the 88 Donruss back variation that isn't even recognized by PSA. Tough to track down since no one scans the back.

I respect the dedication! Odd that PSA won't recognize that variation.

I picked up a bunch of Doerrs from a seller on Ebay and I'm very happy to give them a nice home...

[MENTION=3743]AmishDave[/MENTION], [MENTION=1722]nevermore[/MENTION], [MENTION=1845]gracecollector[/MENTION], and [MENTION=1899]rebelpawn[/MENTION] nice pickups
[MENTION=2212]Brewer Andy[/MENTION] can't call yourself a Brewer collector without that pickup-- nice !!
[MENTION=3722]madbull34[/MENTION] love the button pickup !!!

[MENTION=3934]Calripkenjrcollector[/MENTION]- the 2004 LCM Auto I was initially in on and forgot to set my snipe
Nice "value" buy- I was upset it went so cheaply. Ah well- my auto set will have to wait.

Just two buys in the last 3 weeks and luckily some OT & some card sales helped alleviate costs


I was able to work another deal with [MENTION=12723]Onthespotdetailing[/MENTION] for the below quad piece for my 2006 Epic quad set

And from Japan came a Gold Version # 03/05 from 2007 Exquisite Rookie Signatures to add to my silver version
