I found a few Pucketts I thought I'd lost, and was looking through some of the old wax I've busted and found a few great Rc's. Whats even better about finding all these mid 80's cards is that I pulled them all and they are all pack fresh.

Finding the old early-mid 80's wax boxes reminded me that I've got a box that I packed for PSA but never sent. That box has close to 50 Rc's of Gwynn, Ripken, Sandberg, McGwre, Puckett, Mattingly & Boggs. So I'm excited to find that when I have more time to look.

Anyway here are a few of the scans of cards I found today:

Also came across 10 of this guy:

I also saw another Puckett that reminded me of the 1948-49 leaf set, so I scanned the Puckett next to my Williams from that set. The colors look closer in comparison to the naked eye:

Thanks for looking, and comments are always welcomed and encouraged. I know its not prospects(Although they were at one time ;) ), but I thought maybe I could get a few replies tonight with the record amount of people on.

This just popped out from under a flap of the box that had the Puckett GU in it. I decided to scan it for all to see. A great card that I thought I traded/sold a long time ago:

Yup, I have some $$ to start it off! Hopefully there will be some pick-up threads that may interest you.

If it isn't too much trouble, I'd love to see a scan of these.

any chance that usa mcgwire is a spare?


Its got a gum stain on it. I know I've got 4 or 5 in that box I was going to send to PSA. I could probably throw you that McGwire if you want it despite the gum stain.
