Opening my box... I'll post in groups of 5 packs. Man, this box cost me a pretty penny. Hope there's something nice. I loved these cards when they came out.

George, could I PM you a list of what I need for the set? There's not many, but it would be cool to pick up a few singles. BTW, great Gibson! I had to buy mine! I also bought the Ozzie Smith jersey from that set when it was new. Cost me nearly $100! What a great set, but boy, were the goods hard to pull!

 

[thenumberonemetfan]

could you please post a scan of the beltran

 

[Greg Cleveland]

Here's mine from my set. (sorry, not available for that reason.)

 

[George K]

I want to see if I have set... so let me see what I have. I actually like this base set; it is one my dad and I enjoyed together when he was still around.

Greg, were you the person who had some comics and never got back to me?

 

[George K]

Greg,

Email me what you need, I sorted the cards.
