So my overpriced 04 Topps Black came in today and I already don't care what I paid. Glad I have it, last Topps Black I needed. The card itself is one of my favorite modern Topps designs. I like the player number and outline down in the corner, bold team name. Plus his picture is an awesome look at how he throws the knuckler, including the "pinky out, tea with the queen" grip.

Kind of an odd ball came to in today. One of the heritage advertising panels with three cards on it. This was the last one I needed, I now have all three panels featuring The Wakefield/Papelbon card. IMG_20190126_145303.jpg

I was also looking at the checklist I've made for this release, one was sitting on eBay for a couple weeks that I thought I had, I went through one day to make sure I found that I needed it. When I grabbed my phone to hit the BIN it had sold hours before. I've got 29, there are 4 I've seen that got away, who knows how many more 1/1s are sitting in unopened boxes.

Looks like that one was just pulled from a box...of rocks and glass shards! :lol:

I thought the same thing, like how much could a non scratched copy cost to buy back, upon arrival it's on the case, the seller must have thrown it in a jar of sand and rolled it around

2019 has been good so far. I've already beat my total from last year. I just secured my fifth card from his playing days (2012 and prior)
2004 Topps black
2012 Topps toys r us purple
2006 UD silver spectrum
1999 Fleer starting 9...still can't believe that
2009 OPC Black mini

3 I had never even seen, 1 I had only seen a picture, not in a sale, and I had missed the Topps black the only time I saw it come up. I'm missing 29 non 1/1s that you know about so they don't often bunch up like this, exciting times.
