Well, Tribute comes out tomorrow. The next round of Griffey autos are about to release. My favorite card out of the product is the Griffey Tribute Best of the Best Auto /5. I think the front is made of wood? Anyway, good luck to you guys if you are looking for it. It will be too much $ for me. Keep it inside the freedomcardboard community.

oh yeah, you're right; I thought I recently looked on blowout cards and it still said March. Anyway, blowout cards has museum collection and tribute now releasing on the same date. I'm assuming that won't be the case.

Anyway, just got the griffey auto /19 out of 2009 ultimate in his blue uniform, part of the career highlight signatures set. Should be arriving tomorrow.

Just got done inputting a stack of cards into my org on Beckett (easier for me to keep track of what I have or don't) I'm at 1650 different. Small change to most of you but proud of it. :)

Congrats! That's a nice chunk - I find myself paging through binders of base cards on occasion, just because. Some really nice cards have been made for griffey, even if they're not rare. And I prob have way fewer than 1650 :)

I second that. I also picked up a bunch of early 90s psa cards, mostly base or common inserts but they are gemmed out and will help build the foundation for my collection. Griffey just has cool cards even for a few bucks a pop.

Yeah that tribute card is in my opinion the second best topps card only to the Museum framed auto /5.

Wow, that was a HUGE pull back in the day. Those cards reached a value upwards of $1500-2000. I was born in 1983, so I can imagine what that was like.

Believe it booked at $1,500 when I pulled it.Really had no idea to what 'value' was back then,loved the cool rainbow finish,lol.

Yeah I saw in your bucket. It's very very nice man!! I am mad because I had a deal complete with a seller for the gold one, but it got squashed at the last second. Anyway, let the search continue.

Peace out for the night fellas...until tomorrow

Back in 1992 Pulled This Beauty......................

When I was a kid I opened up what had to be a couple hundred packs of 1992 Donruss, looking for the Elite Series cards. I wonder what the actual odds are on these. I think they were found one in every couple of cases, so probably something like 1:1440 packs. Very rare.
