Another one of those magical mid 70s Tigers cards i couldn't get enough of as a kid. Roberts would actually come to the Mariners in 1980 and got some cards, including a very cool Donruss action shot. One of 4 Dave Roberts who played in MLB! He died somewhat young, at 64, of lung cancer/Asbestos exposure when we worked as a boilermaker in the off season early in his career, according to BR.
Jon Kitna. Have always liked these acetate Inscriptions autos, but they seem to have fading and yellowing issues too.

I am going to enjoy going through this lot and hopefully I find a decent number of new variations and pages I need, otherwise I am going to reinforce my duplicates greatly!

Roberts /15
Russell Wilson /6
A few lesser thrilling items to round it out.

Received this in a TCDB trade and went down a little rabbit hole after noticing the number 1 on Logan's bat knob. Logan never wore that number, and it wasn't a Pittsburgh teammate's bat; the Pirates retired 1 in 1954 for former manager Billy Meyer.
Logan came over from the Braves in a 1961 midseason trade; my theory is that this bat belonged to his Braves teammate Del Crandall, who wore 1, and that the bat came to Pittsburgh with Logan.

Palmer/Rettenmund Timeless Teams /150. These don't get a lot of respect. Often can be found pretty cheap too. It looks like the players signed on post-it note paper than was stuck to the card, which might explain their less popular nature. I like the whole set and still look for deals when I can find them. Some decent pairings too. This isn't a marquee pairing, but Palmer is a HOFer and Rettenmund died in 2024.
A Trio of redemption cards, with Griffey being the best looking. I normally would not have chased the Doleman, but they were probably pretty tough to find and I don't recall hearing about the prints. It said that only 25 prints from each player (total of 675 across all players) will be issued. 25 copies out of Pro Set would have been like finding a needle in a haystack the size of Rhode Island!!
This GP Old School relic card took forever to arrive, via the good old Ebay standard trading card method. I now officially hate that method, as they seem to move slower than any other mail for some reason and are often not delivered, despite tracking stating otherwise. Tracking USPS will not recognize, so how the hell are these showing as delivered?
Not as good as 70s Hostess, but still fun to find larger lots of these Drakes panels. Got a total of 10 panels in the lot, all 2 or 3 player panels.

More Sugar Daddy cards. These are fun, especially when you can land a larger lot instead of buying them one at a time.

Had a fun Row 2 come in today in the mail. This set is one of my all-time favorites.

Ryan relic from a set I like to pick up when i can find deals. This one is /100.
This was worse condition than I would prefer, but it's from the Pepsi Fan Club
The beast was awoken after I bought that huge lot. Found a seller with 3 of the newer, harder to find variations and they were only $1 each! Score. Hoping this seller has more I need, as I did ask about lesser players (most of what they posted were superstars). I only need a few more variations that i am aware of and I may have one of the most complete sets of this issue ever assembled in one spot! My set is currently sitting in 22 of the binders. all mostly full! I have 2 costco type printer paper boxes full of dupes to book and about 10 unused binders. I had a problem...
Lastly, I grabbed a nice sized lot (365) of random Sportscasters. Mostly the more odd sports are represented. I'll never finish the set, but it would be cool to have a full one.

Nomo /150 from 2025 Museum Collection
Roki relic that got creased pretty bad by USPS. The seller used a bubble mailer with another padded envelope inside but still got butchered. Luckily it was only a $6 card.

Frustrating to see. Its apparent too many people still have no clue how to transact and package, selling online. Bad images, poor descriptions, terrible packing jobs. I got a package a few weeks back where the mailer wasn't even sealed! Sorry, but as you said, at least it wasn't something much harder to replace. That said and a slight pivot, but I'll never ship anything ebay standard card method that I couldn't rebuy immediately if lost or damaged.
