December Pick Up Thread

[69MetsFan]

Let's get it started!

For the Brewers auto collection

Passed away in 1977

Frisella also played for the Mets from '67-'72. Nice pickup!

Very nice auto!

 

[Topnotchsy]

This is a really cool set that never got much attention. Pinning the game-used to a specific year (and particularly the player's rookie season) is pretty sweet.

 

[JoshHamilton]

I've picked up about a dozen of these. I've never done a game used set, and these are beautiful

Took over a year to find this card under $10 and well centered

This will end up being one of my favorite Stantons. Numbered to 210, but they were only available in retail factory sets or something. It's my favorite photo (after he hit the gw grand slam on Mother's Day), and the orange pops

...and so will this

 

[madbull34]

I didn't have this one yet:

Nice Ishii. They don't pop up too often anymore.

 

[JoshHamilton]

FINALLY! First orange that's popped up. I was beginning to think they didn't produce them.

Completes the rainbow.

Just picked up an awesome Griffey lot!! Will be in Thursday. Most will be available if anyone is interested (nothing /25 or lower tho)

You see the pink bat name plate Topps tweeted from 5 Star? Beauty

Sixteen left to go!

Slaughter 07/25



Mussina Yanks 39/101

 

[JoshHamilton]

First up, some Five Star

I recently started collecting the base patch set. I'd like to get a black /5 from each team to complement it. Most are team logos

 

[devin]

sweet morneau!

 

[JoshHamilton]

Thanks, I've always liked Morneau. I have really nothing of him other than a BC rookie.

Got one of these for my set and one for the rainbow I just started. The green one is the A in Canada.

WOW, that is not only amazing to browse through, but also an excellent reference tool. What were the toughest to find? The lower numbered Japanese ones? If you have any extras, I'd love to buy them

I picked up two more, Dominican Republic and Chinese Taipei. Not a huge fan of the DR patch, but at least it's from the team name

Also picked up my 15th Stanton auto

 

[Brewer Andy]

Yeah the Japanese players were definitely the hardest (all /43). Interestingly there were no blue parallels of the Japanese players. Had a ton of fun putting it together

 

[JoshHamilton]

I was wondering if there were blue parallels for the whole set.

I'm doing the usa set in base, blue and possibly red. That would be a neat rainbow. I'll also do the Mexico green set, because they look awesome. Possibly orange for the Netherlands

2014 Stadium Club Mariano Rivera Autograph #d /25 (redemption)

On-card autographed version of the base card shown below. Fingers crossed!
